Overall Satisfaction with Portainer

I use Portainer to manage containerized services on for my personal projects and home lab. I have deployed it on Lindode/akamai and AWS as well as locally.

I spend my day job administering Windows and Linux servers. I appreciate that Portainer lets me bring up my stack of services and monitor them from any web browser I choose.

Pros

  • Lightweight
  • Fast to bring online
  • Visually appealing
  • Easy to explain to non technical users

Cons

  • I'm not sure if sso is supported
  • No cost for personal use
  • Being able to add remote environments
  • This lets me spend more time doing what I want rather than doing my day job after hours. 👌
  • My comfort with containers has improved
Portainer is free and a lot easier to live with than Hyper-V

Portainer is a great starting point for someone who is new to containerization.
