Google Cloud Run vs. Portainer

For prototyping or quick deployment, it works as an interesting step between containerized deployment (Kubernetes) vs pure Compute Engine (raw servers). It's not well suited for Kubernetes shops, or for teams that would prefer more hardware control.

We do have a couple of users who are new to Docker and the Linus shell environment. Portainer makes it easy for them to quickly deploy stacks of containers with its web editor to configure docker-compose files with an easy-to-use GUI. Not only does this save time, but it also encourages new users to interact more positively with Docker and Portainer in general.

• Can easily run our apps in a docker in Google Cloud Run which has simplified code testing and deployment.
• Can easily scale and does not have any problem when put under a large load.
• Has all the necessary services so you don't need to look for other cloud solutions.
• Pay as you go model so only pay for that you've used and how long you've used it.

• Separating server maintenance with application development, providing a clear user interface for developers who don't want to worry about the underlying server.
• RBAC for container deployment linked to a SAML IDP, not something particularly easy in a native Docker instance but point and shoot in Portainer, allowing the use of Azure / Okta etc to provide user access.
• Image management with multiple repositories is super clear and reduces incidents

• When setting up static IPs for a new container, having the used ones for a specific network at hand would be cool or something like a mini IPAM of some sort...
• Using the developertools to see "oh, it's a 40x or 500" when something doesn't seem to load because the ui just states "Didn't work" is kinda annoying. expandable toasts or something would be nice.

It is an excellent tool.

It is a clear UI, and it does what it sets out to do, very well

One of their staff members jumped on a video call immediately with me and led me through the problem and solution during a quick session of screen sharing. In this day and age that is above and beyond, especially when it comes to software. It took approximately 5-10 minutes to diagnose and fix, including pleasantries!

It is really easy. Just follow the documentation.

Flexibility of features snd customzing options tha optimized the large process and make it on the the go to reuse the same process in multiple deployments ot rollouts

I am using Rancher in Kubernetes environments. It was really the first product I used with it and never really had time to test out how well Portainer behaves on Kubernetes. For the exact same thing - Docker Swarm management I used Swarmpit some time ago, but I like Portainer better, even though Swarmpit has better cluster visualization then Portainer. Portainer 5 node business edition is really a big plus for me, since it has some really nice features.

• Improved production deployment times by 50%
• The error analysis time was reduced by 30%, thanks to its logging and monitoring system.
• The rollback is almost immediate, as it easily allows reverting to a previous stable version.

• Increased productivity: Portainer's user-friendly interface and streamlined container management can help increase the productivity of IT teams.
• Cost savings: By simplifying container management, Portainer can help reduce the time and resources required to manage container environments, potentially leading to cost savings.
