Scalable and Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
Openshift has an intuitive easy-to-use web interface. It is free (for low use) and easy to deploy. It integrates with Git and a wide variety of tools, frameworks, and languages.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of storage accessibility for auto scaled gears. There needs to be more GUI based management. Reconfiguration after changing node host names was a bit arduous.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Container storage with support for dynamic storage provisioning. OpenShift provided a platform to allow for scaling using specific services and enhanced the performance of the application features.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it. For a small quantity, it's free. It's very easy to use.
Kubernetes for Enterprises!
What do you like best about the product?
Strong compliance with the base Kubernetes APIs which allowed us to get our own K8s-oriented Integration Platform (https://www.adroitlogic.com/products/ips/) working on OpenShift as well, with less hassle
Hassle-free, wizard-driven installation
Strong by-default security and permission model

What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of documentation in certain aspects such as the relaxing of certain security enforcements
Necessity of a Red Hat Customer Portal account for installation
Unavailability of a reusable, offline installer
Reconfiguration (e.g. after changing the hostname of a node) seemed to be overly complicated

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used as one of the key orchestration platforms supported by our own Integration Platform (https://developer.adroitlogic.com/ips/docs/17.07/overview/)
OpenShift subscription provides our clients with orchestration platform-level support so we can focus solely on providing support for our own integration platform

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Review your requirements and see if OpenShift Online (as-a-service) version suits you better; it might be less hassle to get started.
Also consider OpenShift Origin or bare Kubernetes if you don't think you would be needing extensive support.
Before purchase, use Red Hat's no-cost Developer Subscription to evaluate the product and see if it meets your expectations. (it most certainly would!)

Great tool for orchestration of Docker images
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, easy to get started with, robust with excellent logging.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some aspects of documentation is outdated, slightly difficult to grasp the concepts as a beginess.

Get really familiar with the workflows to understand the concepts
OpenShift for Web Hosting
What do you like best about the product?
Open Shift provides new actively subscribed user with a starter account that comes with 1GiB of memory and storage for a single project space and open community support. Additionally, they provides a really quick and helpful response to any questions you may have within a few business days which reflects great customer service.
What do you dislike about the product?
Just recently, Open Shift switches from basic JBoss Web Server with Apache Tomcat 8 to a more complex and secure project setup using https that requires certificate and key setup. Without any experience in TLS Termination and SSL certificates it may be difficult for someone who is new to deploying web applications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Research new technologies for hosting web applications in a tomcat server. The benefit that came with this research discovery is that this cloud platform is a great choice for new starters learning deployment of web applications in a cloud environment. Also great for small business owners interested in starting a new website!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommend Open Shift as a consideration for deploying your own web application that is accessible to anyone with connection to the World Wide Web (WWW). However, I would suggest anyone without experience in SSL Certificates to learn the material before attempting deployment using the tomcat server option.
Openshift is awesome!
What do you like best about the product?
Its a fantastic way to host Docker apps in the cloud securely.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing so far! Some members of my team were apprehensive about switching to a Red Hat based environment but all has worked out well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have developed new EMR application modules using containerization technology. Openshift has greatly helped us to collaborate with our vendors effectively!
Whether in a public cloud or private DC, OpenShift make easy move to container and microservices
What do you like best about the product?
We are experimenting Openshift Origin, the upstream community project that powers OpenShift. We are also studing and monitoring the Red Hat versions.
OpenShift enable to rapidly build and deploy Docker containers and manage them on a robust, scalable platform.
The openshift origin version is good for demo and test, as well as we can count in a enterprise version provided by Red Hat.
What is more OpenShift is based on Kubernetes and Docker, that I think like "standard de facto" in managing and orchestrating container.

What do you like best about the product?
The Openshift is a great effort to create a span platform supporting a lot of programming languages and integrate differents parts of DevOps processes, starting from the Operations Engeeniers, Developers and including too Security Teams.
It's powerful to builds a portables images layer by layer, allowing run updates from underlayer libraries and frameworks, and separated update source code application.

What do you dislike about the product?
The professional starging with OpenShift will need change the paradigm, the operations team wont should install a operations system by each new application, or the developers team with need learn to developers and builds application with cloud arquitecture, because, mailly OpenShift don't presists a lot the data, just essentials information outside openshift images, the images are readonly and currently a lot application need write data/configurations and so on, on disk to works.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business agility is supported with Openshift, the cause, the time to market, from Business users are creating the ideas and needs, to the final product is depliyed to production enviromment is more short, because, the project infraestructure provisionining can be using self-service mode, and using techniques Continous Deployment/Continous Integration the bugs and issues in developers stages are fixing fastly and autamated testing sets allow run many test on short time, after the deployment on each enviroment a span of landscape just transport the readonly image with freeze application versions and just run set of specified configuration for each enviromment.
The elastic scalation is a big pain of business and OpenShift allow scalate using very specific services or microservices, then you can scalate the minimal unit with bottleneck, preserving resources and giving more performance to the application features with issues.
