Qovery vs. Rancher: Beyond just cluster management
Stop managing Kubernetes the hard way. Move beyond basic cluster oversight to a fully automated Kubernetes lifecycle with lower overhead and zero “manager” maintenance.





Qovery vs. SUSE Rancher
Rancher is built for the infrastructure admin. Qovery is built for the team that needs to ship software. Stop just managing your clusters and start automating your delivery.
"The core promise of Qovery for me is to be able to delegate the 'tinkering.' I tell it what I want to do, and it gets done automatically... We have all the flexibility of Kubernetes while keeping it simple. It's a 100% gain"

4 pillars that makes Qovery the best
Kubernetes management platform
Don't Rebuild. Refine.
Rancher asks you to move your world into their ecosystem. Qovery meets you where you are. By connecting to your existing clusters in minutes, Qovery adds a high-velocity developer experience to the stack you’ve already spent years building. Keep your clusters, keep your cloud, just lose the manual toil.
- No "Rancher-isms" or Lock-in: Unlike platforms that rely on proprietary distributions or complex CRDs to function, Qovery deploys standard Kubernetes resources. If you ever leave Qovery, your clusters remain standard EKS/GKE/AKS. No proprietary wrappers to unlearn.
- BYO-Everything: Qovery is an orchestration layer, not a replacement for your tools. Bring your own Helm charts, Dockerfiles, and existing CI/CD. Qovery doesn’t force you into a specific workflow; it adapts to the tech stack you’ve already standardized.
- Full API/CLI Access: You aren’t tied to a UI. Everything you can do in the Qovery console is available via our API, CLI, or Terraform Provider, allowing you to manage application-level logic as code, just as you manage your infrastructure.
