Find out what your peers are saying about GitLab, Jenkins, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in Build Automation."The most useful feature of Bamboo is its integration with other solutions such as Jira and BitBucket, also offered by Atlassian. It is easier to use tools all provided by one vendor."
"In my experience Bamboo is scalable."
"One of the big things that made us choose Bamboo, is it seamlessly integrates its APIs into NetSuite, which is our main ELP system."
"The most valuable features are compiling and deployment."
"The most valuable feature of Bamboo is that it is a good tool for CI/CD integration."
"The most valuable features of Bamboo are its performance and UI. Additionally, there are a lot of useful plugins, integration with other solutions, such as Bitbucket and Jira, and a helpful online community."
"It can do the CI pipeline well."
"The platform helps us with automated and timely backup. It provides data replication as well."
"The product's most valuable feature is output backup."
"The most valuable thing we have found is the workloads are good in Jira and we are able to control the access."
"It's straightforward to adapt to, with user-friendly features and a convenient UI."
"We can watch the newly implemented code. So it's quite nice to organize the teams to see what part of the work is done and what part of the code is already old or new. It is very good for that kind of management."
"The initial deployment is rather straightforward and only takes 30 minutes to an hour."
"Bitbucket is an integral part of our CI/CD project."
"Bitbucket is a standard git implementation with perfectly coordinated screens, it's secure, and we have had no problems with it."
"Bitbucket is definitely a tool to consider if somebody is still on CVS. It is a great tool and well integrated with Bamboo."
"Scalability depends on the use case. If it is really a big customer with a lot of tests, it might not be a scalable option for them."
"It would be great if Bamboo could introduce a more containerized deployment model."
"It should be much easier to use. It shouldn't require a lot of reading to be able to use it. It should have just two or three screens rather than hundreds of screens requiring a lot of clicking. It also requires a lot of integration. It has a steep learning curve. It takes a lot of time to understand and put in the data. There is also no proper training."
"It can be challenging for someone new to the system or ecosystem to grasp, making it difficult to train new people and help them understand."
"Bamboo’s technical support services, in terms of speed of response, need improvement."
"The performance around the deployment feature could be improved."
"It's a little outdated. It's three years old."
"The marketing strategy of Bamboo is an area of concern where improvements are needed."

"Bitbucket should integrate a static code analyzer."
"The module component needs improvement."
"Bitbucket doesn't currently offer AI functionalities."
"The scalability for the cloud version can be improved."
"Bitbucket's Initial setup is a little complicated because you need to install and configure the solution. It can take one or two days to deploy Bitbucket. If you have a high workload, you can deploy it on multiple server farms as needed"
"There are many places where the product could be expanded to make it a more complete solution."
"It would be beneficial to have a straightforward mechanism for integrating the initial tasks defined in Bitbucket with Jira when the need arises."
