User Testimonials
	HashiCorp Waypoint	Spotify Portal
Likelihood to Recommend	IBM Waypoint is very similar to teraform , it can run a ec2 machine, an ECS service, Azure containers, Google containers and many more , which is one of the most advantageous thing about waypoint . The team that we are working with has a hybrid customer based in multiple clouds like AWS, Azure and GCP. Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Spotify No answers on this topic
Pros	IBM The infrastructure as a code concept is simple and easy to learn in waypoint You can integrate waypoint with various code repositories like Github, Gitlab etc The waypoint UI provides a interactive interface to view the status of your builds Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Spotify No answers on this topic
Cons	IBM Need more controlling environment which is missing in waypoint The UI lags sometimes which can be problematic at times It uses HCL language which is outdated , can be moved to YAML which is used by most of the tools Need to copy the endpoint everytime from waypoint to my browser It forces me to install a server Incentivized Verified User Read full review	Spotify No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	IBM As waypoint is developed by HashiCorp which is also a developer of teraform , the trust was already there . Moreover the simplicity of ease of access made our choice even more clearer against its competitors. The competitors were good but weren't able to compete with the versatility and suite of application and functionality provided by WAYPOINT.
