We performed a comparison between OpenShift and Salesforce Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the auto scalers for all microservices. The feature allows us to place request limits and it is much cheaper than AWS."
"The solution is easy to scale."
"OpenShift offers more stability than Kubernetes."
"Key features are WildFly, because it standardizes infrastructure and the git repository and docker. Git is essential for source code and Docker for infrastructure."
"The stability has been good."
"Its interface is good. The other part is the seamless integration with the stack that I have. Because my stack is mostly of Red Hat, which is running on top of VMware virtualization, I have had no issues with integrating both of these and trying to install them. We had a seamless integration with the other non-Red Hat products as well."
"I am impressed with the product's security features."
"The security is good."
"What I like about the Salesforce Platform, in particular, its enterprise edition is that apart from its many features, you can have a wider view of the customers, a 360-degree view. I also enjoy managing opportunities in the Salesforce Platform a lot because it's easier and gives you a wider view, compared to HubSpot."
"What functions we don't get out of Salesforce, we typically receive from third-party applications that extend the capabilities. We integrate a lot of different products with Salesforce."
"It's an easy platform for salespeople to quickly and efficiently be able to track an opportunity."
"One of the main features of the solution is it is flexible."
"Scalability to configure and integrate."
"I like it because of the fact that it lets me know what I'm working on and what I've recently worked on. It also helps me and allows me to do tracking. If I want to go out and find out how many times I've touched customers, I can find that information out. It tracks such information, and we use it. If we send any type of promotions out, it tracks who gets those promotions and how they've responded to those promotions."
"It is a great platform. It's definitely an improvement from the GCP application that we were using previously."
"The solution is used to track our customers."
"OpenShift's storage management could be better."
"An enhancement to consider for the future might involve incorporating a comprehensive solution for CI/CD tailored specifically for OpenShift."
"The metrics in OpenShift can use improvement."
"Room for improvement is around the offerings that come as a bundle with the container platform. The packaging of the platform should be done such that customers do not have to purchase additional licenses."
"It would be great if it supported Bitbucket repositories too."
"If we can have a GUI-based configuration with better flexibility then it will be great."
"The software-defined networking part of it caused us quite a bit of heartburn. We ran into a lot of problems with the difference between on-prem and cloud, where we had to make quite a number of modifications... They've since resolved it, so it's not really an issue anymore."
"Its virtual upgrades are time-consuming."
"They should provide access to data quality tips and tricks to make it better."
"I want more analytics in the platform and the addition of AI-based models, for example, predictive feedback. The Salesforce Platform needs to be more intelligent and intuitive to make it a great solution."
"I would like to see the organizational details improved to make it less difficult to bring new clients on board."
"Salesforce also did not integrate well with some of the other systems that we had."
"Salesforce Platform has a cumbersome interface when creating reports, dashboards, and those types of things. They could be a little bit more simple. The administration has to be an aficionado to do any sort of administration and maintenance, for example, setting up the way you want to modify the lead tracks or functions. These systems tend to be quite cumbersome."
"Easier process to move to Lightning Components."
"They have some limitations as a cloud solution."
"Salesforce Platform is a bit expensive compared to other CRM products, which is a drawback."
