"The feature that I have found most valuable is that it is very user-friendly."
"When used in conjunction with Kubernetes, it is seamless because it integrates very well."
"The most valuable feature of Docker is automation. When I deploy the solution I am confident it will work anywhere. It is reliable and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Docker is the dedicated QA environment for connecting the team members. Additionally, there are many core features available and it is highly secure when we are imaging a client's server."
"I think the best feature is to replicate anything in our local machine using a simple command."
"Docker is very reliable. It's easy to scale, and it's very stable."
