What do you like best about FreeBSD Jails?
FreeBSD jails pre-date containers like Docker by a long shot and as such, are far more straightforward. The thing I like about them is that they are so simple to set up and are easier to understand when compared to newer technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about FreeBSD Jails?
You will need to be very comfortable with a terminal; there is no GUI interface here like you can get for Docker on Windows. If you are comfortable with the terminal, you will easily be able to use jails - if you are not, then I would suggest trying something else. The thing that tech like Docker do well is defining your software's dependencies and letting the container deal with it for you. This is something jails will not do for you.
