"The most valuable feature is the ease of use and performance."
"We are able to generate many different types of reports from Azure."
"My team likes the integration that Microsoft Azure DevOps has with GitHub and Microsoft Teams. The solution is well integrated with other Microsoft tools in one place, it is very good."
"The aspect that requires attention is the user management component. When integrating with BitLabs and authenticating through GitLab, there are specific features we desire. One important feature is the ability to import users directly from GitLab, along with their respective designations, and assign appropriate privileges based on that information. Allocating different privileges to users is a time-consuming process for us."
"The documentation really should be improved by including real examples and more setup cases."
"The tool must be more user-friendly."
"Another area is the Azure monitoring agent for Citrix machines. There's room for improvement there too."
"The documentation isn't straightforward."
"There could more integration with other platforms."
"The functions have too much dependency right now, so it makes it really, really hard to upgrade and make a change in the code."
"Non-functional testing such as security testing, log testing, and performance testing can be improved with a better visualization."
"The tutorials for building pipelines are an area that is a bit technical for a beginner."
"Integration and plugins for other tools could better. Like if you want to integrate the DevOps with other tools that are in the market. This could be for the engineering tools to check code quality, application security tools, and DevOps dashboard tools."
"Azure has not yet advanced to the performance level of the other major competitors and is missing integration with important technologies."
