I just went through about 20-30 SRE interviews while hiring an SRE II for my team. Every single one of them that had state management at all used terraform cloud. I found that really interesting because I've never heard positives about it vs the others (spacelift, env0, terrateam, brainboard etc). Not a single one of them had anything other than tfc. Not even atlantis.
- technics256 3y agoThat's funny, I've only ever used Atlantis with a smattering of tfc
- swozey 3y agoI've only used Atlantis as well! We actually need to decide on a service next month. I haven't demoed it yet but I'm really aiming to use brainboard.co if it actually does what it says. It's priced per user, not some weird deployments a month price and it honestly looks amazing. Gives you a gui to move resources around, imports your current state, etc.
- notnmeyer 3y agosame. love atlantis. was happy to read that atlantis isn’t impacted by these changes.
- jxjfkff 3y agoI've helped companies evaluate TF Cloud few times and not a single time they could be convinced to adopt it. I've also interviewed dozens of SREs and zero had experience with TF Cloud.
- ohad1282 3y agoenv0 founder here. What were the main reasons that they used TFC? was it the ability for Hashi to fix things in Terraform CLI/providers? was it their size / "nobody gets fired for buying IBM"? something better in the product? something else? would love your insights here
- Jka9rhnDJos 3y agoHashi bought Atlantis.
- pm90 3y agoNever used terraform cloud and probably never will. Its too expensive and doesn’t really provide all that much benefit over using terraform with eg atlantis.
