Empower your teams with self-service development
Tailor development environments to match specific project requirements, ensuring that each team has the tools and resources they need to succeed. Developers can easily spin up their own development environments on demand, eliminating the need to wait for infrastructure provisioning.
Accelerate Testing and Collaboration with Preview Environments
Okteto streamlines CI/CD processes by automatically creating instant preview environments for every pull request. Okteto gives teams immediate access to a production-like environment, enabling fast, effective testing and reducing time spent waiting for feedback.
With instant preview environments, feedback loops are shortened, allowing teams to iterate quickly, respond to feedback, and bring new features to market faster and with higher quality.
Spend an hour less each day on testing—Okteto speeds up feedback cycles, boosting development velocity and quality.
Great for shift-left testing and quickie demo envionrments
Heath H. | Lead Automation Engineer
Okteto provides a very comprehensive solution for managing our Docker containers used in pre-merge testing, with extensive environment visibility and management as well as user access controls. It provides a modern, smooth, easy-to-use interface. Beyond the tool is the fantastic, personalized support and engagement from the Okteto team.
Preview Environments are a breeze with Okteto
John C. | Cofounder & CTO
We had an internal development team maintaining our preview environments that we spin up for automated tests in CI. The previews never worked exactly the way we wanted and the took our engineers away from what they needed to be focused on: our product! We switched over Okteto Enterprise and couldn't be happier. We use Okteto to automaticall spin up the environments using their GitHub Action whenever pull requests are created. The automated tests run against the environments in the cloud and are torn down the the testing process completes. If we need to make an environment stay active longer, we add a custom label to the PR and the environment will stay active until the PR is closed. The whole process is great and we never have to worry about it. It just works.
Okteto is awesome!
Leonid M. | CTO
We use Okteto daily and it drastically shortened our cycles, everyone from QA engineers to business steakholders are now in the loop on all the changes and can approve them or provide feedback before it hits our staging environment.
Growth enabler
Ants K. | VP of Product Engineering
Katana has evolved beyond the limitations of traditional local development environments, where the entire ecosystem was once hosted on a single PC or localhost setup. Today, engineers can spin up specific environments tailored to the areas of the product they need to work on, significantly improving development efficiency and reducing resource overhead.
Our partnership with Okteto has been key in this transformation. The collaboration with Okteto has been seamless, with their team consistently going above and beyond to provide guidance and support. Their proactive approach and dedication to customer success has been noticeable.
Streamlines development process
Sophia S. | Consultant
The best thing about Okteto is how it streamlines our development process for cloud-native applications by providing a fully automated development environment in Kubernetes. Okteto allows our developers to spin up replicas of their production environments quickly, so they can test and iterate code directly in a Kubernetes environment without managing infrastructure.
This means our devs move fast and save multiple hours per days with removed manual tasks associated with managing environments.
Excellent tool simplify development for complex Kubernetes apps
Michial D. | Front End Developer
It just improves the developer experience tremendously. It requires a bit of effort to setup depending on your specific usecase but after that it saves the developers a lot of frustration and time. It means that when you onboard a developer, he basically only needs to install a cli tool and run 2 commands and he/she will have full access to a fully configured dev environment that also closely mirrors production. The developer will not have to spend any time on configuring architecture or secrets, benefitting security as well.
