281 Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise) Reviews
- I don't have to install any software. Everything is dockerized!
- I can run multiple copies of everything for scaling.
- Containers start instantly. So fast.
- After I delete containers, no residue is left. It is truly a sandbox.
- Docker perfectly manages its storage space. If you are downloading two similar images, docker would only save the common parts of those images once.
- Docker is ever-growing. This is the future, and development is very active. You get new updates very often, and you can tell that they are moving in the right direction.
- The concept of containerization as a whole is so supreme and powerful, that you are really missing out, if you have not dockerized your applications yet. Docker has really redesigned the whole pipeline and deployment game. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Lots of configurations to get some containers running.
- Containers don't have generic guidelines to start. Different containers take different skills to get up and running.
- Sometimes, the containers may die. Though this is not Docker's fault, it is application fault.
- Around 5-7 containers, my machine starts to give up.
- I don't like Kitematic. It can be more refined. Currently it doesn't even show logs properly, and is slow and brittle.
- Docker itself is small, but not all applications built inside docker are small. E.g. Just adding a language and couple of libraries would increase your storage significantly. This is not a docker fault per say, but not all applications have been re-worked to lower the memory and storage footprint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is the only way I have found to make Open Flow operate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's massively difficult to learn how to use from my experience and it rarely works properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love that Docker not only does containerization well, it makes it easy. With all of the tooling they have released it is a breeze to dive in. The community is amazing, for support as well as coming up with external tooling based on the Docker containerization technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I did dislike the lack of first-class support for Kubernetes, but they have recently released support for this orchestration technology. So, I am very happy with the changes in this area. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Docker is a lightweight and and faster than using a VM in my development workflow. Because Docker runs on Mac/Linux/Windows it has proven to be the most important way to experiment with new technologies and is integral to my development CI/CD workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Though this is not Docker's fault, I would like to be able to run a native macOS kernel instead of a linux one. Apple needs to embrace this as part of their ecosystem and support the community on this effort, much the way Microsoft has. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Provides best solution for deploying web services.Ease of use for integrating and deploying docker.Eazily modifiable and many other things are best about docker.We are using docker since many time and we are really grateful to this free service for many of our services deployed using docker.

Nothing to say because when you compare a container and a VM you find that container is the state of the art technology which is far more advanced than a VM and talking about docker,it is the face of container. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Docker has very good documentation and all the commands are very self explanatory. The swarm is simple to use, and very lightweight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish they had a way to broadcast a request coming into the swarm to all containers if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the ease of use and versatility. Docker cuts all the limitations due to systemic problems and achieves a uniform and independent layer from the underlying SO platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Needs to better integrate with third part orchestration tools. Recently kubernetes native integration address this thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to get a virtual environment up and running in mere seconds, rather than installing a whole OS inside of a virtual machine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Command line can be obscure, desktop client can be feature-poor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Native extension of Docker. No need to use Kubernetes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No auto scaling. Need to manually set number of desired instances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There's a lot of great tooling around docker because it's so standardized. Mesos and Marathon, in particular, work quite well with Docker, and Docker hub is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Docker container are enormous, bloated, and slow. A "Hello, World" Node.js container will be upwards of 650MB and take an eternity to build. Also, Docker solves the very easy problem of running an application in isolation but doesn't have a solid story about running a fleet of applications. Also, dangling Docker images cause regular disk space shortages and its tricky to manage them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
