Software Engineer at a outsourcing company with 201-500 employees
Improved daily delivery has streamlined workflows and saved time for developers and operations
Akuity Platform has most of the features, but I think they should include some more features, such as the feature where we specify the URLs of the Argo CD workflow, which I liked, but it would be good if they include more of those features on the platform. Integration with Akuity Platform is quite good as they have integrations with almost all the related CI/CD products, but I think in terms of performance, they can improve upon that because sometimes it does get laggy, maybe due to high pressure, and anything can be the reason for that, but they can improve on the performance part.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Overall, Akuity Platform has impacted our organization positively as the DevOps team is quite happy because first, they do not have to manage their own Argo CD, and second, it is quite user-friendly for them as well as for the developers, saving time for us."
"In my opinion, the best features of Akuity Platform include the GitOps-first model that makes deployments predictable and auditable, a good UI for visualizing the application state versus the desired state, easy rollback and sync control during deployment, good compatibility with Kubernetes native tooling and manifests, and a strong open-source ecosystem with great documentation."
"Akuity Platform has impacted my organization positively through ease of onboarding and ease of use; we do not have to rely on difficult trainings for new joiners."
"Akuity Platform has positively impacted our organization by helping us reduce the overall onboarding time from days to hours for thousands of applications, achieving secure, consistent GitOps at scale."
"The main quality is still to have a One Click process, then you save precious time."
"For a "from scratch" project, the build pipeline is very easy to create: Jenkins for the continuous integration platform and deployIt for pushing the artefact onto our servers."
"The solution creates a manifest file that caps the bridge between the developer and the system admin."
"For us the flexibility of this product is nice, we can manage several things within one file and by giving parameters to the deployables."
"Quicker and more solid installations."
"The product sounds good thanks to its UI, as it is really easy to perform a deployment when things work."
"This product is an innovative market leader in the field of application deployment."
"It has been a key enabler for us to implement Continuous Delivery and DevOps across the organisation, increasing release frequency by a factor of approximately 10 and reducing re-deployments by a factor of 50."
 

Cons

"Integration with Akuity Platform is quite good as they have integrations with almost all the related CI/CD products, but I think in terms of performance, they can improve upon that because sometimes it does get laggy, maybe due to high pressure, and anything can be the reason for that, but they can improve on the performance part."
"From a perspective of support feedback, it is a bit slow, so I would like them to fix that and make it more seamless."
"In terms of improvement for Akuity Platform, I would say that the RBAC and multi-application setup takes time to configure correctly."
"Though the product is very good, I think the product can still be improved in a couple of ways."
"The GUI deserves some improvements."
"The basic design is broken, as it computes diffs to perform updates."
"Customer service was not very good."
"While it is a flexible product and provides a means of integrating with virtually anything, the company should make a better effort to keep up with new platform integrations."
"The tool needs to improve on cloud-native GitOps."
"GUI: uses Adobe Flash which is a bit of a pain (Soon to be replaced by a new GUI with HTML5 and AngularJS)."
"I’d like better reporting possibilities."
