Corporate information
Overview
Portainer.io is unleashing the potential of containers with its universal container management tool. The New Zealand-based tool was born in 2017 from founders Neil Cresswell and Anthony Lapenna's own struggle to learn Docker, with the vision to create a GUI-based tool to manage Docker without frustration - regardless of whether it was deployed standalone, in a cluster, on-premise, at the edge or in the cloud. In August 2020, Portainer expanded to include support for Kubernetes and Azure ACI as well as retaining full support for Docker & Docker Swarm. Portainer Community Edition currently has over 500,000 global monthly users. Portainer Business, Portainer.io's first business product, launched in December 2020 with additional capabilities and security controls for business critical environments. The team most recently raised a US$6 million Series A round in May 2021.
