Effortless Deployment with Spectro Cloud Palette
What do you like best about the product?
I find Spectro Cloud Palette exceptionally user-friendly, which greatly simplifies my development tasks and application deployments on a daily basis. The platform's integrated tools are a standout feature, making the deployment process remarkably easy and efficient. I also appreciate the interaction with AI it offers, streamlining development processes, ensuring easy access, and providing valuable support in deploying applications. Additionally, the switch to Spectro Cloud Palette was motivated by its ease of use and low cost, which made it an appealing choice. The setup process was straightforward, with the instructions being very well written, allowing for a comfortable transition from AWS.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think a tighter integration with GitHub would enhance the functionality of Spectro Cloud Palette.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Spectro Cloud Palette simplifies development and deployment processes with easy access and AI interactions, helping with application deployments efficiently.
Unified Dashboard and Automated Management Make Kubernetes Easy
What do you like best about the product?
The unified management dashboard has been the most helpful feature for us. It allowed us to oversee our Kubernetes clusters on both AWS and our on-premise servers without the need to switch between different tools. Additionally, the automated lifecycle management for clusters saved us a considerable amount of time when performing upgrades.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found the learning curve for the advanced features to be quite steep. Locating the exact documentation needed for integrating with our CI/CD pipeline proved difficult, and we ended up contacting the support team more than once to get everything functioning as it should.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We faced challenges with inconsistent cluster configurations in our various environments, including development, staging, and production. These inconsistencies resulted in security vulnerabilities and the classic 'it-works-on-my-machine' issues. Palette addressed these problems by allowing us to enforce standardized Cluster Profiles. The biggest advantage is that our platform team can now ensure all clusters adhere to our security policies, while developers benefit from a consistent environment.
spectro clould palette review
What do you like best about the product?
Overall Spectro Cloud Palette has been a great addition to our organization. As a organization fairly new to Kubernetes Spectro Cloud staff have really gone above and beyond to understand our use cases and desired business outcomes and plan solutions not just with palette but also Kubernetes. The support staff has been very knowledgeable whenever we have had an issue. The product itself has some useful features that i have not seen in other platforms.
1. The profile system with variables is a great way to maintain consistency between our clusters. it makes things repeatable and easy for less expert users to deploy. once you create your base profile the cluster builder just needs to fill out the right variables and doesn't need to know all the details of the configuration. i like to keep a lot of my cluster level configurations in a profile so i can easily see what is configured
2. Packs are a great edition. palette has packs for most of the popular add-ons. its easier to manage then directly using helm charts and the pack default settings are usually pretty on point. we use the airgap packs which is nice that we don't need to fight with helm to make it pull everything locally.

What do you dislike about the product?
1. New spectro could versions of kubernetes and third party packs can sometimes take some time to be released. while this is understandable as they do testing it can sometimes be frustrating if you are waiting on new features in those products that have been release by the vendor but the pack hasn't been updated yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
making Kubernetes manageable by a team who was not super experienced with the technology in the beginning.

The handling of the Palette interface is standardized and easy to understand.
The support is very friendly and always tries to find a solution. The response is very quick and usually very effective.

Decentralization is an Individual Right be it in any walks of life.
What do you like best about the product?
Its decentralization nature of plugging different components to make any kubernetes cluster production ready. Its support for virtualization is add-on value to the customers. The support from Palette Team is exceptional. We were able to implement it in few clicks and start using it. We still need to evaluate the frequency of usage of the product in our production.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its not out-of-readiness to support Talos Kubernetes Variant to create clusters.
