Buildkite Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Senior Engineering Consultant at ASSURANCE IQ, INC.4.5I use Buildkite in my company for managing CI/CD pipelines, primarily for merging codes and running unit tests. While it's easy to integrate with AWS and track projects, we face issues with parallel execution time and testing framework limitations.
Senior Software Engineer at Seek4.5I find Buildkite easy to learn and integrate into our development process, particularly for projects involving both front-end and back-end. It works well with AWS, is cost-effective for large organizations, and supports our multiple deployment stages seamlessly.
Information Technology Specialist at Techn IT Solutions4.5I find Buildkite valuable because it allows us to self-host agents and run them on our AWS instances. While I haven't used it for six months, I appreciate its UI and developer-friendly features over alternatives like Jenkins and GitLab.
Sr. DevOps Engineer at Bank aletihad4.5I use Buildkite for CI/CD to improve build times, enjoying its plugins, scalability, and pipeline options. Although integration is seamless, it could benefit from shared or cloud agents like GitHub Actions to optimize resource use and costs.
Tech Architect at Provar4.0I use Buildkite for integrating with Solenopsis in CI/CD pipelines, focusing on automated tasks in Docker containers. Its intuitive UI and detailed logging are valuable, though the community is smaller than competitors like Azure DevOps and Jenkins.
Senior SRE at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees4.5I use Buildkite in my company to manage CI/CD pipelines effectively, especially after issues with Jenkins. While Buildkite supports Monorepos well, its scalability with agents can be improved. It's a worthwhile investment compared to other tools, like Azure Pipelines and GitHub Actions.

Senior DevOps Engineer at a newspaper with 5,001-10,000 employees4.5We use Buildkite as our main CI/CD platform for deploying blockchain microservices. It's matured over time, offering built-in features like scalable Kubernetes agents. Improvements are needed in plugin flexibility and hooks, but it's valuable for large enterprises.
