We performed a comparison between AWS CodePipeline and Bamboo based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Build Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."In AWS, the Cloud DevOps is a managed service from CodeCommit and this has removed the need for a lot of manual steps."
"The tool's recent version helps us to run pipelines in parallel. The integration with other AWS services has greatly impacted our use of AWS CodePipeline. It made tasks such as integrating with Jira and provisioning instances much easier."
"AWS CodePipeline has valuable integration features."
"The integrations are good."
"It helps develop CI/CD implementations with centralized management of code building, deployment, and version control."
"The product is cost-effective and integrates well with the AWS environment."
"AWS CodePipeline offers multiple integrations and it has its own set of features in the area of code scanning and dynamic code testing."
"Code deployment is the best feature."
"It can do the CI pipeline well."
"In Bamboo, build and deployment have been segregated. The build plan and deployment plan are different. When comparing Bamboo to other solutions, the native feature you will not find in another tool, such as Jenkins. They have segregated the build and deployment plan. This means, building the application and deploying it are two separate parts in Bamboo, they have segregated it apart from the UI. This makes the tool a bit better compared to other tools."
"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."
"One of the significant benefits of Bamboo is its built-in support for numerous clients and the ability to tailor its capabilities to your specific requirements. This high level of customization enables you to create pipelines that are ideally suited to your needs, making it an invaluable tool for conducting advanced testing."
"One of the big things that made us choose Bamboo, is it seamlessly integrates its APIs into NetSuite, which is our main ELP system."
"Bamboo's integration with the rest of Atlassian's tech tools, like Jira, helps manage the end-to-end development and release process."
"In my experience Bamboo is scalable."
"Bamboo was used extensively in our organization for PCA compliance."
"It would be a much better tool if it could be made compatible with other cloud services as well since this is an area the product currently lacks."
"The setup time is a bit long."
"AWS CodePipeline doesn't offer much room for customization."
"If there are many dependancies involved in the setup, it may take a long time."
"In the next release, I would like to see fewer timeout errors."
"The migration process from one source code to another needs improvement."
"There could be a possibility of deploying tag-based conditions for different environments using the same code base."
"The tool does not provide automated features for evidence collection."
"Bamboo’s technical support services, in terms of speed of response, need improvement."
"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."
"The marketing strategy of Bamboo is an area of concern where improvements are needed."
"Bamboo could improve by having compatibility with GitLab. It would be better to have this platform for deploying code and storing container registries. Bamboo does not have a container registry. Additionally, there could be more features added."
"The performance around the deployment feature could be improved."
"It would be great if Bamboo could introduce a more containerized deployment model."
"One area that could be enhanced is the governance process, particularly with regard to building approvals and transitions between stages. In comparison to other solutions, such as Jira, which features a workflow that supports approval processes, this capability is not natively available in Bamboo. To implement this functionality, integration with other solutions, such as GSM may be necessary. Although some add-ons, such as Adaptavist ScriptRunner, are available in the market to circumvent this limitation, they may not offer the exact functionality needed. Therefore, there is certainly room for improvement in this area."
"It's a little outdated. It's three years old."
