Where each one falls short

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

Flux

  • No user interface of its own: observing what Flux is doing means CLI or a third-party dashboard
  • Debugging a stuck reconciliation is harder than reading a pipeline log, because failure is asynchronous
  • Everything must be in Git, which is awkward for secrets and needs a sealed-secrets or external-secrets approach
  • GitOps is a workflow change, not just a tool, and teams used to imperative deploys find the adjustment real

  • Specific plan pricing not available on main website; API pricing disclosed at $0.01 per minute but full pricing details require contacting sales
