For me, Helm caused more problems than it solved. Pulling in packages always seems good, but as soon as you want customization, you're back to merging in the (relatively) straight-forward yaml files from the chart. Also, instead of Helm's templates (which get crazy complex and unintuitive), a simple tool like Kustomize[0] is very straight-forward and allows per-environment configuration. Finally, tiller pods do present (yet another) security risk for Kubernetes.
