I believe it's user-friendly for our developers, and it's effective in terms of traceability for tracking our actions.

We don't have any issues in terms of performance and stability. The product has its own tracking facility or features, although it is limited. We use Jira to work around the limitation.

Bitbucket Server supports code collaboration by providing commands developers can use to check in code. Through comments, developers can specify the purpose of the code check-in. Additionally, Bitbucket allows tagging of code for releases.

The solution's most valuable feature is that it is simpler in terms of code changes since you just have to map it to a sourcetree and commit changes, after which the user can go for check-in and check-out. Bitbucket Server's version control is amazing.

Bitbucket Server easily integrates with Jira because they are both Atlassian products. The solution's integration with Jenkins is also easy.

Bitbucket Server is easy to use. You can use other applications to access it, or you can use it to access the internet. You can use solutions, such as Sourcetree, which is free, and put it on your development system and use it to do the check-in, checkouts, and those type of operations. It is nice, but some other developers may agree.

The most valuable feature of this solution is server management. 

There are other solutions that do that, but this is a solution that the global IT department has available for everyone across the organization.

Horizontal scalability & high availability are the most important features that we are looking forward to from the Stash DC. With respect to the premier support, timely response and the fact that we have assigned representatives is great.

  • We selected Stash primarily because we believe it has the most potential to become the best product available, not because it was the best product available at the time. Since 2013, Stash has been significantly improved in many ways such as the introduction of Pull Requests, demonstrating that this belief in the potential continues to be valid.
  • We like that Stash has a full development staff behind it, and that Atlassian is investing in using Stash internally, as this ensures that Atlassian is committed to the development of Stash to become the best solution available.
  • We like that Stash uses the Atlassian Plugin Framework. We have had success extending all Atlassian tools using custom plugins both that we have written in-house and as well that we are using from external 3rd parties. This gives us some flexibility to complete features that are important to us that are either not shared by other Atlassian customers, or where the feature has not yet been prioritized by Atlassian.
  • We like the simple per- 1000 user pricing. Although, per-user pricing might be preferred, the per- 1000 user pricing is still competitive with other commercial source management solutions. And, the pricing based upon # of users instead of amount of server hardware allows us to the flexibility to invest as much as we want into infrastructure without being penalized for having a faster system by being forced to pay more for a higher level of service.
  • We like that Stash is supported under Linux. Linux is our preferred server platform.
  • We like the LDAP authentication and directory integration. This allows us to integrate with the corporate directory and define access using the corporate directory accounts.
  • We like that Stash supports both SSH AND HTTPS. There are use cases that are best fulfilled by either mode. SSH is a best choice for automation and access for a single user. HTTPS is best for more ad-hoc clones, including to work with shared clones owned by a shared or service account where multiple users may be authorizating operations done against the same clone.
  • We like both the Fork model (most users work in private forks) and the project branches model (everybody works in the main repository). Different teams have different requirements and expectations around how a source management system should ideally work. One model doesn’t fit all product teams.

The Pull Request GUI is good. Integration of Bitbucket with JIRA & Bamboo is well done by Atlassian.

Implementing DevOps CI/CD is easy to implement after a "trunk-based" development model is adopted.

The permission system for Git repositories and viewing all contributions to a Git repo are the most valuable features I could think of. In addition, it is really nice that users can create their personal repositories.
