Modular, Secure and Versatile. I can talk about tall the technical benefits of using Terraform but I will start with a soft skill that Terraform provides which is the ability to learn different cloud offerings. GUIs are made to simplify single deployments but when you are configuring a module you can see all the options you have for configuration. I will use Azure Storage Blobs as an example. In the GUI when you configure a storage blob by default it is open and available over the internet if you chose defaults. When you are configuring an Azure Storage blob in Terraform you can see how to quickly disable access from public, enforce TLS 1.2, add storage policies for data retention and many more. In short, it enables engineers to build right from the beggining.
Another favorite is integration. I can easily configure Terraform in Jenkins, Azure DevOps, Git Actions and I can add code security so that I can get suggestions in CI/CD. Even when developing, the local IDEs have plugins to accelerate development with security like Snyk.
The HCL language also allows you do apply software development so you can have conditions, loops, functions and different styles of data inputs (stings, arrays, tuples, etc) for better code readability and structure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When new services come out in cloud providers it might take longer to get a module than using a cloud tool like Bicep or Cloudformation but you can always use the API modules and Hashicorp is good at releasing updates to new features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The application is characterized by a high degree of user-friendliness and ease of installation. It was employed on a daily basis for the deployment of new features within our continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) framework. Additionally, it found utility in the establishment and maintenance of monitors and alerts within the Datadog monitoring platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Although Terraform provides robust state management, handling state files and implementing best practices can be challenging. It's crucial to manage state files appropriately, and mistakes in state management can lead to issues if not handled carefully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the best benefits is the multi cloud we have to learn it only once then we can directly deploy resources on any cloud without any issues by just reading the document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I particularly have no dislikes it works very great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Terrafom is very vast tool if we talk about infrastructure as code. It has not provider limit which i like the most because of that we can create our infrastructure on any cloud by just writing the code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In my point the major disadvantage about terraform is there is no built-in way to plan migrations across remote statefile of the resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Terraform can instantly help build large scale infrastructure and even destroy the same infrastructure.
Commands are simple yet unique to run and helps in building infrastructure as per our requirement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing that I know of because Terraform makes life easier to work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

-The installation process is simple and quick.
- It's free and open source
-HCL is really simple and easy to learn.
- RBAC and encryption are only two of the security solutions offered by Terraform.
-Because it is declarative, it is easy to manage resources.
- Terraform supports a wide range of cloud service providers, including AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
-Configuration management may be tough if the infrastructure is large.
-If code is not handled appropriately, it might become a mess.
-Team cooperation is not by default enabled, however there are possible solutions.
- Terraform may be slow for large deployments, especially if you make a lot of changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

terraform have addapted for all the major cloud providers, able to bring the infrastructure as code, which helps us to keep the infra as it is, and it can be easily re-deployed and will help us to create more environments with same set of Terraform modules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I see there is always a lag between Hashicorp terraform and cloud providers, for example, if a new feature is released in any existing cloud services will take time for Terraform to support it, which is not the case with the native automation tools like ARM and BICEP Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

using it as infrastructure as code for multiple cloud providers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Maybe need to add hooks pre/post for example, that will helps a lot to trigger things before other things Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Once we did the script for our cloud infrastructure, just one click is enough to create or delete the whole infrastructure in Cloud. The beauty of Terraform is we can manage services across multiple cloud providers from a single Terraform configuration file... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Just 2 weeks ago they brought a new free plan for their Terraform Cloud service, which limits our service provisioning on the cloud. If they bring back their old free plan it would be better to manage cloud services from terraform Cloud... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
