Works, with some caveats

Mixed feelings about Docker after using it for a while. On the plus side, industry-standard containerization technology. That said, learning curve for networking and volumes, which held us back from rating it higher.

Verified User

Highly recommend Docker

Been a daily user of Docker for a while now. Huge ecosystem and community. No major complaints so far. Would recommend to anyone considering it.
