Review Summary

User reviews of Docker highlight its ease of use, particularly for setting up and managing containers. Its compatibility with various operating systems, fast and secure deployment, and cost-effectiveness are frequently praised. However, users also note some challenges, such as difficulty migrating legacy applications and a steep learning curve for beginners. While Docker offers an efficient solution for containerization and deployment, some users express concerns about performance issues, particularly on macOS and with demanding applications, emphasizing the need for dedicated resources and potentially requiring further optimization.

Pros

  • Docker makes deployments fast, consistent, and reliable across environments.
  • Docker streamlines development by providing a portable and isolated environment.
  • Docker simplifies dependency management, ensuring applications run as intended.

Cons

  • Docker can be complex to master, requiring some technical knowledge and experience.
  • Docker images can sometimes be large, consuming significant system resources.
  • Docker might not offer enough support for GUI applications or those reliant on specific hardware features.

"Docker : The best solution to virtualization"

What do you like best about Docker?

1. Its easy to use and work with the team members

2. Packages can be installed very easily and can be deployed to docker hub so that we could reuse that.

3. OS specific issues can be solved.

4. When we adapt dockers in our projects so multiple members can work together and also the package installations can be avoided so that is saves time.

5. It can be easilly integrate to the running projects

6. Docker containers can be saved locally as well..just like that it provides many features.

7. Its easy to pull docker containers with even single command.

What do you dislike about Docker?

1. It will consume the memory rapidly.

2.Low memory might result in performance of the system.

What problems is Docker solving and how is that benefiting you?

Docker can solve number of problems. We have used docker in many projects , so that when we commit a docker container to docker hub and team members could pull the container and make use of it and as one of the member had insttalled the required packages then the time consumption for that kind of applications can be reduced. We shall create work environments with in it , so that some projects needs linux environment or embedded based OS , so for testing and all we might dont have those devices with us , so we shall pull the docker containers which we used before and make use of it for modifications and testing. So that it shall help to work remotely as well and we could simply run linux environments in Windows OS easily.

"Using Docker will be efficient and effective for product deployment and fast development"

What do you like best about Docker?

Docker is distributed , helps to code independently in any platform , languages with seperate containers without any conflict.

Docker helps to build multi container application by docker compose, it gives techniques to build , integrate , and portable container images to run in independent platform.

What do you dislike about Docker?

There is nothing to dislike Docker. It is a well versed software for any cloud or non cloud developer. Faster migration, independent features, fast deployment, security therefore its preferable to used Docker .

What problems is Docker solving and how is that benefiting you?

Docker solves multiple problems as below-

Less programming knowledge also useful to use Docker . No extra cost for deployment lifecycle. Early release can be planned using Docker.For a cloud based application its like a urge to use Docker to deploy in cloud that means it gives scalability, no redundancy of code , extra security, code migration if needed , flebility of resource sharing etc.

"Docker best for Bundling in software developments!!!"

What do you like best about Docker?

The best thing about docker is that its functions for package builds. As a developer, it has helped me transfer my files more efficiently by containerising them. It also has excellent help availability within the command lines. The documentation is also straightforward to understand and apply. Its versatility with various engines in development purposes makes it stand out from its competitors.

What do you dislike about Docker?

At the start of installing and running the docker software, it has become an issue while running that it shows an error; although it gets solved irritates developers. It would be great if they looked into it.

What problems is Docker solving and how is that benefiting you?

In the development field, when a code works on certain someone's laptop/pc, it doesn't work on the other pc so to overcome our organisation has come to use docker, where it containerises its code as well as the os, which in turn rectifies the issue of the above mentioned.

"My experience with Docker"

What do you like best about Docker?

Docker a platform with which I can containerize my application easily it works cool with windows Linux and mac .My web app works on my machine and it works cool on my friends machine as well, only thing they need to do is that they need to run the docker image of my app that I had build and shared . It also provides volumes, networking through which containers can communicate with each other. It also has large registry called docker hub where all official images are stored.

What do you dislike about Docker?

Docker has only a single point of failure called Daemon server which means the commands that I run my CLI were executed by daemon server . If that fails there is no alternative like podman.

What problems is Docker solving and how is that benefiting you?

Main problem it solves is that it is light weight and has light weight base image and few app and os dependencies with which if app runs on my machine it works any where regardless of environment.

"Everything working on everyone's machine"

What do you like best about Docker?

Its main functionality which is to simulate the best environments for a piece of code to run. If I can set up the right docker container that the author intended, I do not have to set up anything else. It removes the need for complicated setup instructions in many scenarios. The CLI is automatically configured to use the most popular CLI registry so I do not have to specify URLs.

The CLI can also be configured to work with ACR's CLI.

What do you dislike about Docker?

The number of image pulls a day is limited on the free plan, unlike Podman.

It is a bit complicated to set up a local registry for machines with large storage.

Sometimes, the platform error it gives on MacOS can be misleading for new users.

What problems is Docker solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use it to distribute components to each other for local testing through writing Dockerfiles. It saves time from setting up dependencies ourselves. We also share updates with each other through new images pushed to DockerHub or Azure Container Registry. The multistage building feature also allows us to reduce the size of the final image so a lightweight image can run the binaries. This way our storage does not get all used up.
