Overall Satisfaction with Portainer

We use Portainer to manage our existing and new Docker containers. With the growing need to implement containers in our business, and in some of our clients' businesses, we needed a robust, secure, and yet an easy-to-use container management solution. Portainer provides us and in the near future, some of our clients, the ability to efficiently manage docker containers, etc.
  • Extremely easy container and stack deployment
  • Easy to maintain existing container image updates
  • Secure and trustworthy monitoring of docker containers
  • Automatic email notifications for available updates
  • Built-in, real-time notifications for container uptime
  • More updated image versions for existing app templates
  • Saves our devs loads of time
  • Makes it easy to build and rebuild images
  • Allows the efficient use of physical hardware resources
Portainer takes the cup in terms of usability and features. It is also more useful for smaller deployments, whereas Kubernetes in our opinion and experience, could probably be more suited to certain other use cases. Portainer is also a fresh feel among all the preexisting container management solutions and brings positivity and a new breeze in the industry.

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.
