"Easy to spin up containers"
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

Deploy multiple applications on the same node in different containers and it avoids the usage of hypervisor. Easy to spin up containers and destroy them. Using docker image multiple containers can be created. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

For continuous deployment with docker one may need to take the help of cicd tools like jenkins or gitlab. The code can be built but if you want to deploy continuously then we need to take third party tools help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great method to isolate applications"
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

One of the features I like most about Docker is that it is an open-source platform. Among the main advantages of this platform, it is essential to highlight the way it isolates applications and their requirements, so that their instances start quickly and are highly portable. It allows, for example, the use of different operating systems or different versions of the application runtime environment according to their dependencies, enabling all these applications to run on the same host without causing conflicts. The management of containers and their layers is simple, and it speeds up the deployment times of any project using very lightweight virtual machines. Another advantage is that it consumes very few hardware resources. Finally, note that the use of Dockerfiles is very useful and intuitive when building custom containers.

What do you dislike about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

It only supports 64-bit architectures, and it also requires a Kernel version of at least 3.8. Generally, not many bad conclusions can be drawn about Docker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Virtual machines without complex process."
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

Docker mainly serves to create a machine or a virtual server, but, it is important to emphasize, that Docker is not like other platforms, since this one in particular, provides each user with a very nice interface, very well organized and arranged, and It has functions such as a good storage space in the virtual machine and access to it when necessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

I would like to be able to access our Docker virtual machine, through different devices, such as laptops, mobile phones with Android and iOS, it would be a good way to expand the functions that Docker has. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Stability in virtual machines."
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

It is so nice to be able to create a virtual machine just a few steps as Docker offers, it focuses on offering the best functions, to create a virtual machine, configure it and get rid of it when necessary, also, it offers speed mainly so that the user contains a principle of comfort at all times. I consider that Docker has been designed to fit, providing a comfortable design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

I have noticed, that one of the biggest features that affects Docker, are the benefits that the plans bring with respect to the storage of it, it is very bad to have to pay a sum of money to just provide a bit of storage space, I would like that offer much more space.

"Excellent platform for containers."
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

Containers are the place where companies should move and Docker makes it easy, Docker works on any device that needs it, to allow all employees to use the machine that best promotes their creativity and productivity according to their preferences. I love how easy it is to set up a virtual machine, add one and also get rid of it. The principle of pulling virtual machines away if they are no longer needed and building them when necessary is a delight, you can also create your own images based on those of one or more available in the hub. You can also create your private center to store private images of your software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

My only issue with docker is that persistent data storage is very complicated since when a container shuts down all that information is gone unless you figure out with docker data volumes which are not easy to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Probably the best thing that ever comes out since Excel"

It allowed me to create a server without spawning a full VM (which, for development purpose is very heavy) - what's not to like about that? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

Slow if you try to run Docker inside a VM. Probably an unusual use-case, but some dev actually do development in VM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
