Find out what your peers are saying about GitLab, Jenkins, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in Build Automation."We never experienced any problems with scalability."
"The automated elements are easy to use and you can put them into your server."
"It can scale easily."
"Automation of chores like deployment, frequent manual tasks (like running scripts on test and production systems) reduced the time used and the number of errors made by engineers, freeing them to do meaningful work instead."
"For business needs, Jenkins is the most relevant choice because it can be self-hosted, the price is good, it’s robust, and requires almost no effort for maintenance."
"The most valuable feature of Jenkins is its continuous deployment. We can deploy to multi-cluster and multi-regions in the cloud."
"Having builds and test tasks triggered on commit helps not to break the product."
"We have started to integrate Pipelines as a part of a build, and built a library of common functions. It simplified and made our build scripts more readable."
"Jenkins is very user-friendly."
"I would like to see additional support for things outside of Cloud Foundry."
"UI is quite outdated."
"Better and easy-to-use integration with Docker would be an improvement."
"Tasks such as deployment, cloning, database switchover, and all other database missions and tasks are being done through Jenkins. If a job does not go through, at times the error message does not clearly indicate what caused the failure. I have to escalate it to the Jenkins DevOps team just to see what caused the failure. If the error message is clear, then I wouldn't have to escalate the issue to different teams."
"Jenkins takes a long time to create archive files."
"Jenkins could simplify the user interface a little bit because it sometimes creates too many features cramped in the UI."
"Jenkins is an old product, and we encounter performance issues and slow response. Also, some of the plugins are not stable."
"There are some difficulties when we need to execute the DB script."
"It can be improved by including automated mobile reporting integrations."
