I have not used it on IBM Cloud. It is basically used on AWS and Azure. I am using a standard OpenShift.
OpenShift is a container orchestration tool. We have been using it for hosting products on container-based applications.

A tool that offers a good production environment that is much more stable
What is our primary use case?
How has it helped my organization?
Actually, what happens is that the solution gives or provides that kind of stability and much more. It gives a good production environment that is much more stable and error-free. That's how the solution contributes to the productivity of my whole organization.
What is most valuable?
If we compare OpenShift and Kubernetes Harbor, OpenShift is derived from Kubernetes. However, some of the most prominent features of OpenShift are its security services and some of the policies, especially security policies that are some of the add-ons and the best things I like in OpenShift.
What needs improvement?
Some things need to be improved in the solution. Some of the storage services and integrations with third-party tools should be made possible.
I think some more things will come in, like the projects of CNCFs. I think that verified CNCF projects will be integrated into OpenShift.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using OpenShift for eighteen months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
How are customer service and support?
I think the support is fine. It depends upon some of the SLAs and how things or how the SLAs have been maintained. Overall, it is fine, so I will rate the support a seven out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
How was the initial setup?
Initially, the setup seemed to be complex, but the recommendations from Red Hat, and especially on the CoreOS systems, for quality, stability, and security purposes, it seems to be complex. However, once we get hands-on experience, it is very, very useful and easily maintainable as well.
What was our ROI?
I have seen a return on investment, and it depends upon the types and the nature of some of the most critical applications that have been hosted on the OpenShift infrastructure. Considering in terms of stability, performance-wise, and security-wise, if everything goes fine, I think its return on investment is justified.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The price depends on the type and the nature of the organizations, along with the types of projects that are of considerable range. I don't think the price is very much of an issue for any organization against the services being delivered over the cloud and the services of OpenSuite.
What other advice do I have?
If any organization is just working on open-source technologies and wants to have enterprise support and enterprise-grade solutions, then we must go with OpenShift.
Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

A Review of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform
What do you like best about the product?
I highly recommend considering Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. It offers a powerful and feature-rich Kubernetes-based solution for managing containerized applications. It provides an enterprise-ready environment with automation, scaling, and deployment features. Red Hat's commitment to open-source ensures continuous improvement and support from a vibrant community. While there may be a learning curve, the extensive documentation and training resources available make it manageable. Overall, OpenShift is a reliable and scalable option for container platform needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning Curve: It can have a steeper learning curve compared to other platforms, requiring additional time and effort to fully grasp.
Resource Requirements: Running OpenShift at scale may demand substantial hardware resources, such as CPU, memory, and storage.
Cost: As an enterprise-grade solution, OpenShift comes with licensing fees and support costs, which organizations with limited budgets should consider.
Limited Customization: Some users have expressed limitations in terms of customization options, requiring extra effort or workarounds for specific customizations.

OpenShift orchestrator
What do you like best about the product?
I believe the stronger part when compared to other orchestration platforms is the security and inbuilt security features which kind of distinguishes it from others
What do you dislike about the product?
The community is very small which can help you out.
The environment is not flexible enough like where you can set it up as they are limited to RHEL.
The logs part should become a little easier
