IMO I find Packer to work better in Linux
What do you like best about the product?
I can integrate packer with built in powershell and I can use it from Powershell ISE. I mostly chose to use Packer in Linux but if I need to integrate powershell or bring files in from a Windows Authenticated Share or SQL with Windows auth then it's easier to do this with Packer inside Windows.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike but I find that the overhead of running windows and licensing for packer it's a bit much when you can run it in a container and spin down.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping Windows Administrators with not too much exposure to Linux adopt packer and other IaC tools.
