Puppet Enterprise Reviews & Product Details

If you structure your code to follow the official "the roles and profiles method" - then it is easy to build a reusable and configurable configuration management system.

A lot of ready-to-use modules.

You can extend Puppet by writing Ruby code.

With proper architecture/design - you can scale Puppet to manage tens of thousands of servers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Puppet is declarative and its code does not have strict order - thus sometimes it is hard to manage the order of resource creation, for example.

Language itself is also a bit weird and feels a bit unnatural.

To scale it well, you would need to learn existing "custom" approaches and most likely change the way you initially deployed Puppet and set up clients to talk to Puppet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Updates are quite often.

Bugs are very soon.

It has its own declarative language.

It works on Windows and Unix both.

I love the support, the community, the puppet forge. Oh how I could go on. Puppet has revolutionized our infrastructure. It is the best tool I've ever used. If you are on the fence about using puppet, do it. If you are using open source, I HIGHLY recommend you upgrade to enterprise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setup of your infrastructure takes a bit of work. Getting your puppet master set up, the puppetdb configured, and your hiera structure set up takes quite a bit, but once its in place it works great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Puppet nos ayuda a automatizar el despliegue de servidores y servicios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to write configurations. Huge amount of documentation. With Puppet, we are confident that the server and service state are the same across all environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how easy it is to track changes on machines. Also the ability to go back and look at previous reports to see what changes were made during previous puppet runs is really great. Further, the number of modules written for Puppet by third parties show it's maturity in the landscape of configuration management software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish that some of the puppet supported modules would continue support (rather than losing support as they start to be picked up by other vendors). Also, Puppet Enterprise is pretty expensive compared to some alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Puppet enterprise has phenomenal services that allow you to easily bring your infrastracture from a simple CI pipeline to a CD pipeline with the orchestrator and code manager. It's awesome to have PR's that get merged into our production branch make their way from source control all the way to our production nodes without any intervention. It's a huge devops enabler.

The thing i dislike about puppet enterprise is they lack examples of how people in big companies are using puppet enterprise in an automated fashion. Their docs just show and explain examples using clickops in the PE console. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
