It offers a clear and intuitive interface for managing and monitoring containers. It is highly efficient and operates with minimal resource requirements. Additionally, the community support is robust and active. The implementation process is straightforward. I am using it almost daily. And integration is so easy.

Actually, I couldn't find anything I dislike about Portainer. But maybe if I had to say something, the UI can be a little bit modern. Other than that, everything is so cool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me portainer provides all the essential docker container functions, run, images etc plus docker compose functionality and more plus it's GUI is simple and easy to use, it was my goto app while getting to grips with docker as it has functions that are not easily accessible via dockers built in GUI, so its ideal for beginners Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There wasn't much to dislike about portainer in my opinion other than it being an additional app / service to deploy initially although most of this isn't as much of an issue since portainer was available via dockers extensions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Portainer is an easy to use and implement solution that we use in Environements where we need to manage a big number of Dockers.

Using Portainer permits us to forget all of the Dockers commands and we use it almost everyday on every new Elasticsearch environment that we deploy due to its flexibility.

Some of the features that we use more are surely the images management page and the "Stacks" Page, really easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes debugging errors is quite hard as the messages are not that verbose and can cause some confusion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been hearing about good things about Portainer for years and finally want to give it a try, and short story is pretty amazing. Graphical management for multiple containers is a breeze, particularly on container-heavy instances, but it still needs a bit 'twisting' in terms of thinking comparing to CLI. I ended up back to CLI simply because there was some design logic I can't get through within a short time (and still needs to put certain things into prod), but I think it's more of my problem than Portainer's.

What slightly put me off is Portainer's UI, in 2025's term speaking, is a bit dated, or should I say weird. To a point, it feels like bootstrap 3 / 4 age and I'd like to see the UI to be refreshed to a more modern, responsive look and feel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that Portainer brings instant visibility and simplicity to container management. Its web‑based dashboard is beautifully intuitive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Minor interface quirks (e.g. refresh glitches). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to modify and redeploy entire stacks using compose taxonomy is amazing. Being able to visually see performance metrics of all my containers is super useful. And all done in a couple of clicks! Very easy to use and very solid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish you could get more than three nodes for free because this product is amazing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's easy to deploy and manage containers across multiple servers. For this the stacks feature is very usefull. With stacks i'm able to deploy tools like netdata to very server that i run and keep it easily up to date by simply changing the version number and pressing update stack.

I use Portainer for my own selfhosted servers, and we also use it at our company. It removes the requirement for using CLI with docker on Linux which is very nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning curse in Portainer is bad for people inexperienced with docker. The interface can feel cluttered and overwhelming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Portainer lets me easily and remotely manage almost all aspects of Docker Containers and their supporting infrastructure through a browser-based application making frequent use simple and effective. Installation is straightforward, and it integrates easily into many environments. Its feature set is rich and comprehensive, and while Portainer does provide support, there is a robust online community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Portainer is very convenient, insulating the underlying infrastructure, but troubleshooting Docker issues can sometimes be tricky, so understanding the underlying CLI commands may be necessary. Portainer's feature set is broad and deep, so finding a solution to an odd issue may not be obvious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that I can manage all my containers via Portainer. Its fast, easy and works very well, easy to install and setup on multiple servers. I pretty much use it every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This could just be me - but when I want a custom image, I dont need it as a stack. So when you delete your container to deploy again, you need to remember to delete the stack too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My favorite part about Portainer is how easy it is to set up and use. I was able to quickly set up and integrate multiple physical servers as Portainer environments so I can get a comprehesensive view across of all of my Docker services in a single pane of glass which I can look at every day.

While Portainer is easy to use, it's UI isn't the best for some more advanced use cases, where the Docker CLI may be needed. The great part is that even services deployed via the Docker CLI and Docker Compose, they will still show up in Portainer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
