Easy to deploy with an impressive networking feature
Our company uses the solution for the production environment, web projects, and hosting services. For example, we use it to host an NGINX box manager with  proxy, reverse proxy, and DNS server.  We host a bunch of web services for clients and deploy both on-premises and on the cloud. Several of our…

Easy to install with good support, but the deployment of applications could be simplified
We are resellers and not end-users. We sell this type of platform to our customers for data science and analytics If customers focus on primary apps or if they are using them for data science, this is a good solution. If a customer is focused on application modernization or CI/CD, there are some…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I think the best feature is to replicate anything in our local machine using a simple command."
"The most valuable feature of Docker is its portability, ease of security management, and low resource usage."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the Dockerfile, which makes the life of developers easy. Developers get a real understanding of container creation."
"Docker packages up an application as a single item that you can then run without the need to install or configure it to work on any specific machine."
"Docker is perfect for what I do...The solution is scalable."
"It is neat and very flexible."
"The scalability of Docker is good."
"The most valuable feature is Docker has a fast learning curve."
"If customers focus on primary apps or if they are using them for data science, this is a good solution."
 

Cons

"They should provide proper documentation to understand the solution's cgroup process."
"Management can be improved with the necessary tools for orchestration."
"I want to see if new architectures have been incorporated in Docker or if we have to wait for another release."
"Docker needs to improve its pricing."
"The solution is not easy to manage and it is one of the reasons why people introduce orchestration tools to manage it."
"There may not be much room for improvement with Docker as it has greatly evolved. However, one area that could be improved upon is the documentation on their website which was once easy to follow but has become quite terrible with numerous versions being released. As an example, the installation process for Docker now requires more than just a one-line command, causing inconvenience. Additionally, based on my experience as a college instructor, teaching students to install Docker was a difficult task due to the lack of straightforward and easy-to-follow documentation. Docker should focus on improving their documentation to make it more user-friendly for all."
"Owing to a few shortcomings in its stability, I would say that its stability can be improved."
"As for improving Docker, I would like to see enhancements in its user interface and documentation to make it even more user-friendly and accessible. I believe Docker will expand its scope and reduce limitations to support more applications, both online and offline. For instance, in scenarios like deployments on ships or during upgrades, Docker can continue to offer software services and container-based intelligence."
"The modernization in Ezmeral could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use the open-source version."
"The solution is an open-source technology and not a commercial product. However, you will have to pay sometimes. The tool's pricing depends on the vendor."
"I would rate the pricing of Docker as ten out of ten"
"This is an open-source solution, so there are no licensing costs."
"Docker is a free-to-use solution. However, Docker Enterprise is not free."
"The current cost for us is nothing as an open source."
"For commercial use, it's about $30 per month. The license itself isn't expensive, but if there are many users, the price becomes high."
"The pricing of the solution is fairly cheap."
