User Testimonials
	Azure Container Instances	Red Hat OpenShift on IBM Cloud
Likelihood to Recommend	Microsoft No answers on this topic	IBM RedHat OpenShift is not only suited for IBM Cloud but can run in ANY cloud. We installed in Azure Cloud, for example. It can also run on Linux servers or a Power 9 machine. It is built for multi-cloud or on-prem environments. IBM support provides such excellent guidance in the installation and configuration that no other product on the market can beat it. Incentivized SB Susan Barker Sr. Domain Solution Architect, II Read full review
Pros	Microsoft No answers on this topic	IBM Multiclick provisioning of resources makes it super easy to manage pods and deployments. We don't have to maintain code for the same In built security features and customizability ensures that organization wide standards are integrated well into the containers Automated backups, scale ups and fail recovery makes sure of minimal down time Incentivized DP Dushyant Pathak Software Engineer Read full review
Cons	Microsoft No answers on this topic	IBM I wish it had better compatibility with docker file syntax. We had issues when it couldn't build standard docker files Wish it had better documentation Wish they offered fully supported client libraries for the Openshift API rather than dumping it on a 3rd party Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Microsoft No answers on this topic	IBM I think response time for IBM Cloud support should be improved. Incentivized Gonzalo Angeleri Regional Product & Solution Architect Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Microsoft No answers on this topic	IBM We evaluated a number of potential solutions and ultimately chose Red Hat OpenShift because it was compatible with our existing technology. Time and costs savings have been realized throughout the company since we implemented Red Hat OpenShift, and the IT department has been freed up to focus on activities that are more valuable. Incentivized SA Stuart Anderson Head of Innovation & IT Infrastructure Read full review
Return on Investment	Microsoft No answers on this topic	IBM Our customer satisfaction and NPS score has had positive outcomes based on new architecture We are focused on business outcomes vs running the service and maintenance OpenShift on IBM Cloud has had a direct, positive impact on TCO, ROI, and payback period Our staff is more focused on higher-level business activities, i.e. acquiring & customer retention Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
