Whatever you may think of my level of knowledge or weak knees for consensus and gossip protocols, these problems(perceived or otherwise) with setup, documentation, and management seem pretty widely reported.
EDIT: I hope this doesn't sound too negative. Kubernetes IS getting better all the time. I only write this to give a perspective from somebody who would like use Kubernetes but has reason for pause. Our requirements are likely not standard; our internal bar for automation and ease of use is quite high. We essentially have an internal, hand-rolled, docker-based PaaS with support for ad-hoc environment creation(not just staging/prod). We would like to move away from holding the bag on our hand-rolled stuff and adopt a scheduler :) Deciding to pull the trigger on any scheduler though would be committing us to a rather large amount of integration effort to reach a parity that doesn't seem riddled with regressions over the current solution.
