The short version

  • Teamhood is a visual project management platform.
  • Free plans on both; paid from $11/mo and €9/mo.
  • Only Docker lists container runtime; only Teamhood lists kanban boards.
  • Where Docker falls short: shared kernel creates security vulnerabilities when containers share the same OS kernel that can bypass container isolation.
  • Where Teamhood falls short: the free plan caps storage at 100 MB.
  • Prices and features on this page were last checked on 13 November 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Docker

  • Shared kernel creates security vulnerabilities when containers share the same OS kernel that can bypass container isolation
  • Daemon socket exposure grants full root access to the host if compromised
  • Requires careful secrets management - credentials embedded in images or environment variables are easily harvested by attackers
  • Resource management complexity - misbehaving or compromised containers can consume all resources causing denial of service
  • Orchestration complexity - Docker Swarm is less capable than Kubernetes, requiring external tools for production deployments

Teamhood

  • The free plan caps storage at 100 MB
  • Time tracking, reporting, custom fields and workload management all require the Team plan
  • Automation runs are metered monthly, at roughly 50 on Team, 200 on Business and 500 on Enterprise
  • API access is Business only and rate limited to 100 requests a minute
  • Paid plans carry a 3 user minimum and Enterprise a 25 user minimum
  • SSO, SAML and SCIM are Enterprise only with no published price
