## Reviews

### "The pros and cons of Terraform" — 4.0/5

> **Fabrice** | *15 April 2025* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Supports a wide range of providers, such as cloud platforms and all sorts of server-based software such as Hashicorp Vault, Grafana, etc.&#10;De facto standard for infrastructure-as-code
> 
> **Cons**: Cryptic error messages&#10;The quality of the documentation varies a lot, but generally speaking it doesn't go into enough details&#10;Terraform sometimes fails for obscure reasons&#10;Terraform sometimes updates resources that have no changes&#10;No built-in ability to roll back to a previously working state if the deployment fails&#10;Terraform is no longer FOSS&#10;Weird configuration language&#10;Renaming resources usually leads to painful problems&#10;Some limitations prevent the efficient use of Terraform in a multi-environment setup (which is usually the case), which lead to the birth of Terragrunt to overcome those limitations.
> 
> Terraform is the de-facto standard when it comes to infrastructure-as-code (IaC). It is used as a backend for a number of other IaC tools such as Pulumi and CDK.&#10;&#10;The major advantage of Terraform is that it supports a wide range of providers (which are modules to access APIs offered by other software components), such as:&#10;  - Cloud platforms, both public (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) and private (such as OpenStack)&#10;  - Any API-based software, such as Grafana, Hashicorp Vault, Kubernetes, RabbitMQ, and countless others&#10;&#10;This allows using Terraform for both provisioning cloud resources (for example Amazon Managed Grafana) and configuring them (for example by adding dashboards, data sources and alerts to the Amazon Managed Grafana that has just been provisioned). Another example is to deploy Helm charts into a Kubernetes cluster through Terraform.&#10;&#10;The syntax of Terraform configuration files is "Hashicorp Configuration Language", which is derived from JSON and is really unique and strange. So it takes a bit of time to learn it.&#10;&#10;The main drawback of Terraform is its weakness in deploying resources. Sometimes, Terraform wants to update a resource without a clear reason, which leads to the same resource being constantly updated without any discernible changes. Terraform's error messages are usually cryptic and hard to understand. Finally, when Terraform fails, it just drops the deployment and leaves the half-deployed resources as is. There is no built-in way to revert to a last good state.

### "Cutting edge infrastructure as code, clear documentation" — 5.0/5

> **Philipp** | *30 January 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Hashicorp have produced a product that is incredibly comfortable to use. The documentation is the easiest to understand that I have ever seen.
> 
> **Cons**: Since Terraform has moved to closed source, the future on the product is not clear. If Hashicorp were to fall under the wrong leadership, we could see entire stacks forced into a pay-to-use situation.
> 
> Terraform is wonderfully simple to understand, and very easy to implement for any of the use cases it supports. Our team uses it heavily for AWS infrastructure, and for some other cloud provider related IaC. I have concerns on its future since it is moving to closed source, but I am still more than comfortable enough sticking with Terraform over alternatives like OpenTofu

### "Terraform is essential for modern DevOps teams" — 5.0/5

> **Sean** | *18 October 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Terraform was a game changer for me as a DevOps Engineer. I love how your infrastructure is stored as code in git and you can see the history of any changes made. I also like that you can scale your infrastructure a lot easier using terraform than through 'Click Ops' simply by using modules and creating new resources in code.
> 
> **Cons**: One of my main problems with Terraform is when I'm trying to delete things and I end up with dependencies blocking the deletion. Sometimes I need to manipulate state and am left with orphaned resources. When things don't work, it's tricky to troubleshoot.
> 
> Overall terraform is a must-have for any serious DevOps team these days. It's so valuable to have your infrastructure stored as code and be able to re-create your whole stack at a moments notice.

### "Powerful tool for representing your infrastructure as code and making deployments easier." — 4.0/5

> **Colin** | *12 April 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's really powerful, I can represent my entire infrastructure as code and that's really important for resilience and ease of deployment and maintenance.
> 
> **Cons**: There's quite a technical barrier to entry, you need to be a developer to use this tool, thankfully there's a lot of safeguards in place to prevent you from doing damage easily.
> 
> Really positive, we have the majority of our infrastructure represented as code which makes deployments and maintaining our infrastructure easier.

### "Efficient Infrastructure Automation with Some State Management Challenges" — 5.0/5

> **Swaibu** | *6 March 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its infrastructure-as-code approach enables automation, scalability, and repeatability with declarative configuration.
> 
> **Cons**: Managing state files can be complex, especially in team environments, and drift detection can be challenging.
> 
> Terraform is a powerful IaC tool that simplifies infrastructure management with declarative configuration, but handling state files and drift can require extra care.
