Docker Compose lets us spin up the whole stack locally so devs can test end to end without needing a cloud environment. Then when we deploy to Azure Container Apps its basically the same containers, so theres very little friction between local and prod. Just clone the repo and docker compose up. > > **Cons**: I have to docker compose prune -a often or else it eats up my entire drive. Today I did it and it freed 500gb. > > Been using Docker for a few years now across multiple projects. Its become a tool I cant imagine working without. ----- ### "Good tool for clean setups" — 5.0/5 > **Guntas** | *July 10, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Good program to develop more faster and keep envs separated. The image system help to share better the base and avoid some possible mistakes. > > **Cons**: Containers get slow suddenly sometimes, and handling flows is really hard to manage on standard plan. The folder structure was not much familiar for me and bit complicated to use. ----- ### "Best Containerization Tool" — 4.0/5 > **Andrew** | *March 29, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I can manage application deployments with The CI/CD pipeline integrations > > **Cons**: Managing complex multi-container applications can be tricky > > It is the best containerization tool for me, It's reliable and efficient ----- ### "Keeps my personal projects running smoothly" — 5.0/5 > **Wren** | *June 20, 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Once I wrapped each of my projects in a container, the whole "works on my machine but not the server" headache went away. I run my Instagram automation, a home server, and a little calculator app my family uses, and they all behave the same on Windows and Mac. Spinning something up or tearing it down is quick. > > **Cons**: It eats disk space if you don't clean up old images now and then, and Docker Desktop can be heavy on RAM. The learning curve at the start was rough until networking and volumes clicked. > > It's become the backbone of all my side projects. Once it's set up it just runs and I rarely have to think about it. ----- ### "Decent container registry services, slow in Singapore, decent price, awesome 3rd party support" — 4.0/5 > **Monica** | *June 9, 2025* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the support. Just about every 3rd party vendor supports Docker. The container registry services are good for the most part. Price is good - no issue on price. > > **Cons**: Our docker pulls from Asia Pacific, especially Singapore is really really really slow. I ended up using AWS ECR for that region. > > Overall, Docker is well supported, and for the most part reliable. The price is good. However, docker pulls in Singapore are slow. ----- Page: 1 / 23\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/148132/docker?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/148132/docker) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
