Find out in this report how the two Release Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Gives people insight into what's happening during the deployment."
"It provides a wonderful user interface which is easy to use."
"The IT process automation is the most valuable aspect of this solution."
"The product provides efficiency, in terms time, cost, and resources."
"I would say our headwind, or our time to market, is reduced considerably. We get more consistent results out of it, because you write one time and once it's automated you expect it to behave the same way every time. And it cut down a lot of re-work for us."
"It can support very complex environments and dependencies."
"I think on a day-to-day basis, it has increased the capacity to deploy. We don't have to wait for someone to do something."
"Self-service for developers, because they are able to deploy to development departments on their own, without needing people from operations."
"You can easily integrate AWS CodeDeploy with multiple services."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"It is very flexible."
"The product is easy to use."
"It's just like every other AWS resource I use. It gets the job done."
"AWS CodeDeploy operates on an on-demand basis. This means that you only pay for the exact duration of the deployment process. Whether it takes one minute, two minutes, or even longer, you're only charged for the time it takes to complete the deployment. You're not locked into paying for dedicated servers."
"I found the default settings of AWS CodeDeploy to be highly beneficial for my deployment workflows. For instance, when deploying a Node.js application, I manually installed the necessary components on my AWS instance, such as the web server required by developers. Then, I created deployment scripts for starting and stopping instances and performing the deployment itself. These scripts were stored alongside my code in GitHub, ensuring they executed seamlessly with the CI/CD pipeline. Since the project wasn't overly complex, I opted for the default settings, which proved to be efficient and straightforward for deployment."
"One of the biggest features I've been asked by my team to put in there is opening more scripting languages to be part of the platform. There is a little bit of a learning curve in learning how to code some of the workflows in Automic at this time. If widely used languages like Perl and Python were integrated, on top of what's already there, the proprietary language, it would make it easier to on-board new resources."
"key thing is support for cloud-based deployment. That is lacking."
"Not a perfect ten because the user interface is brand new and it needs improvement."
"I would like to see more support for WebSphere."
"GUI for mobile phones: Availability to approve and start deployment through mobile phones."
"There needs to be better error handling and error descriptions. It should be more clear what the errors are and what we can do to fix them."
"If you have a technical problem and need development of the tool, the support team is terrible, because they cannot help with the technical details."
"The stability of the solution can be improved."
"AWS CodeDeploy doesn't provide multiple plugins like Jenkins, which is a shortcoming where improvements are required."
"I faced some stability issues."
"Deployment and stability should be improved."
"Improvements could be made to AWS CodeDeploy in terms of its agent's compatibility across different operating systems. Currently, there are instances where the agent may not work seamlessly with certain integrations, leading to issues with registering protocols on authorized servers."
"AWS should provide its own templates in the console so that I don't need to go anywhere else to get the template for AWS CodeDeploy or AWS CodeBuild."
"We have faced some issues and bugs along the way when it comes to stability."
