Mirantis OpenStack for Kubernetes vs. Morpheus

Mirantis is well suited for someone who doesn't mind spending money but doesn't quite want to commit to a cloud provider like AWS. It is also well suited for small or junior technical teams that don't have the skills, experience, or time to run their own openstack clusters.

Morpheus is well suited for those who want to have a management pane of glass that will allow you to see what you are consuming and how you are consuming it. It also ties into many other types of software and the development team seems to be constantly improving the product. That lends it to being a bit complicated. If you want something easy to set up, this isn't your product.

• Mirantis OpenStack managed services are expensive. Very expensive for a start-up.
• I'd personally like to see a little more under the hood details in the status pages.
• Mirantis could also benefit heavily from a free "light" version that start-ups could use to run their own cloud. Maybe coupled with advertising or some sort of surveys.

Incentivized

• More dashboard/visualization capabilities

We have always been able to reach the support organization at Morpheus on the rare event we needed them. They have been nothing but helpful.

Mirantis OpenStack for Kubernetes is easily manageable and has seamlessly configurable containers. It also has high reliability and security, which is certainly a positive point for this product. Overall I think it is a worthy competitor in the market to compare for your needs.

We previously were using VRA. VRA, while some of the new versions look interesting is hard for both administration as well as end user consumption.

Incentivized

• Mirantis did help our business figure out if openstack was right for us.
• Using Mirantis I felt a bit cheated on understanding the deep technical knowledge of how openstack works. But that being said that is probably a value add more than a detractor for most people.
• Using Mirantis was considerably cheaper than AWS.

Incentivized

• Excellent monitoring tool
