"Centralized and flexible node management"
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

We like that the technical support is so quick to answer questions.

The implementations' versatility has helped us continue with projects that we thought would be more complex.

We can deploy MKE anywhere to meet established schedules, regardless of requirements.

Also, accessing projects and assigning worker nodes remotely has been extremely helpful since we implemented teleworking.

Node management in almost any type of container is simply seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Deploying Mirantis is quite tricky. It took me three days to fully configure the software until the execution was perfect for us.

Because of this, it is a disadvantage that MKE requires technical knowledge to run. It is not necessarily a problem considering the nature of the software, but it could be simplified. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Our system application delivery platform"
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

Creating the application and the deployment of it is super smooth that we can create the containerized application as we are in the education management sector, there are times we need to create the application for the clients- who are willing to study or to intern in the various countries of EU or American continent, then we need to provide the data transmission process through the application, that is why we need to build the system with a cloud system that we can deploy the application for having our business process worked. Customer support is legendary that we faced difficulties while implementing the product, however with the help of customer support we tackled the obsactles. Now we are successfully delivering our applications. Another great side of the product is portability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The patch for Windows 10 is not working properly and it causes concerns on our side. The product is pretty far from the user-friendliness that early months of using the software we suffer a lot to manage the process and properly benefit from the features of it. Familiarization took considerable time. Besides the system of Mirantis Kubernetes Engine cover a great amount of memory that affects the speed of the devices deeply.

"Super and flexible container orchestration platform:Mirantis Kubernetes Engine"
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

The main advantage of this MKE is we can deploy it anywhere like Virtual server, Cloud, etc. As a project lead, it is my responsibility to make available nodes to users easily. And also manage all nodes' performance, mainly worker nodes. After deploying MKE on our premises, my work becomes very easy. Now, all nodes at one place. Easy to manage and track. Easy to deploy using launchpad CLI. I've successfully deployed it on our virtual Linux server. Installation link having clear instructions to install MKE. Now all performance, updates are happening in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

MKE has all features which we have for now. And easy to deploy for me. I didn't face any issues with it. There is no dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In general terms of features, it is all excellent; perhaps the only drawback is that it is not so easy to run for beginners; we first reported to their technical support, who kindly assisted us and guided us through the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easily manage multiple nodes at one place using Mirantis Kubernetes Engine"
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

The best and very useful container orchestration platform. Our clients have different nodes on different platforms. Before it was very difficult for us to manage all nodes. Hence we planned to purchase MKE and it has headed in the right decision. Now, I have added all our available nodes in MKE. Easy to add and deploy. Always when we make easily available of nosed it becomes easy for users to work. MKE helped me very much in this matter. Now, I can also see the performance of all nodes in one place, which is very important, before I use to face many issues on this. I've easily deploy MKE in our existing server it's very flexible.
