We performed a comparison between AWS CodeCommit and GitHub based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Version Control solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."AWS CodeCommit is much easier to use than Bitbucket. It doesn't require any personal password or these things. We just need to put in our AWS account password and username."
"It helps us to install our code idea projects."
"AWS CodeCommit is simple and cheap."
"It has a lot of features from the code development perspective. You get a lot of features such as repo, commit, merge, and branch. You can play around and do things on the fly. It is easy and simple to deploy. It is also easier to use when working from home."
"We've found the technical support to be very helpful."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy but it is always good to connect with GitHub's team that manages APIs."
"This product allows us to easily collaborate on development tasks with our subcontractors, and control the workflow as the project progresses."
"The solution can scale."
"The ease of use is valuable."
"The code sharing and updated history are valuable features."
"The most valuable feature of GitHub is version control and continuous integration."
"The tool should improve its UI."
"There are some options in Bitbucket that are not available in AWS CodeCommit. For example, code reviewer. We can't add a code reviewer in AWS CodeCommit, and we can't fork the repository online. These are the two things that Bitbucket has, but the solution doesn't have. Also, Jira has a debugging option that AWS CodeCommit doesn't have. Another thing is that Bitbucket charges three dollars per month per user. Compared with AWS CodeCommit, that only charges one dollar per month. So, AWS CodeCommit is cheaper than Bitbucket. But it does not have enough features that Bitbucket has. Additionally, it will be good if you upload one video or documentation on how to use AWS CodeCommit for beginners. That will be more helpful. There you can add more details about pricing. There are not many details about pricing. Bitbucket has a table where they have mentioned everything in detail, like, what features for how much price, how much longer you can use and how many users can use."
"The solution could be more user-friendly and cheaper."
"The security point should be addressed in the next release and scaling is also an issue."
"The only thing I see missing in GitHub is that it isn't very user friendly for key personnel who don't have in-depth, technical knowledge. In Jira, there are many functions to upload our test cases, and in GitHub we can only do it manually. There are functions which can be used to upload different files, but that still requires some technical knowledge. A layman cannot do it."
"It would be beneficial if GitHub provided some security scanning for new libraries to ensure that there are no viruses in it."
"In complex cases, we have to use the terminal for conflict resolution. If those conflicts could be resolved visually in the editor, that would be much better."
"The merging features can be improved."
"There could be more integration into Azure."
"From the recruiting standpoint, I would like to see email IDs and phone numbers and a brief introduction about their profile."
"The storage for this solution could be improved."
