Featured Reviews

Andrea-Carella - PeerSpot reviewer
DevOps Engineer at GFT Group
Has improved repository management through policy customization but needs better integration with external tools
AWS CodeCommit is a good product to use when you also have to use CodePipeline because it is all integrated in the same system, which is beneficial. However, the integration with other code pipeline tools outside the AWS world is uncertain, as there has been no experience with that integration. The number of users for AWS CodeCommit is generally less compared to other version control systems. To improve the adoption of AWS CodeCommit with respect to others that are more used in the market, something would need to be done to increase market share, as people are often more educated to use GitLab or GitHub. AWS CodeCommit is quite easy to learn in general, but competitors have a bigger market share in this particular area for many reasons.
AmitRathod - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Analyst at Toll Holdings Limited
Collaborating on code has become smoother while pricing and hosting options still need work
Bitbucket needs improvement as it has very limited cloud hosting options. With Atlassian phasing out its self-hosted server version, organizations are forced to choose between Bitbucket Cloud, which may not meet strict local compliance requirements, or a highly expensive data option. Additionally, Bitbucket is not competitive on pricing for scaling teams, as the free tier is great for up to five team members, but the jump in price for growing teams beyond five users can become steep compared to other repositories. Some enterprise users report that Bitbucket's stability can affect its speed when handling very large repositories, and though it has good support, the technical support team should be more active, as I have not seen them as active compared to GitLab and GitHub. The limited cloud hosting options and pricing for scaling teams are two important areas for improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"AWS CodeCommit is simple and cheap."
"AWS CodeCommit's user interface is nice, and it's easy for people to pick up."
"The solution is quite scalable."
"The most valuable features of AWS CodeCommit include the least privilege access from IAM, where permissions are granted only for the specific repository the developer is working on, which allows for hundreds of repositories with controlled access per project."
"The solution's most valuable feature is versioning."
"What I find best about AWS CodeCommit is its seamless integration with the AWS ecosystem."
"The most valuable feature of AWS CodeCommit is that it acts as a code repository with code versioning and approval features similar to those found on GitHub."
"AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly."
"Bitbucket works fine for what I'm doing. It's slightly different from GitHub, but it's a good tool for storing code."
"We found Bitbucket is the right tool for us at the start-up level."
"We have approximately 300 to 400 users using this solution. Our whole organization uses it. I rate the scalability of Bitbucket an eight out of ten."
"The code reviews and the ability to support DevSecOps are very important."
"Bitbucket is a standard git implementation with perfectly coordinated screens, it's secure, and we have had no problems with it."
"Bitbucket is supporting port management and when we're using Asana we can sync our old tickets with Bitbucket which has helped out our organization."
"Git is Bitbucket's most valuable feature."
"We liked the features of Bitbucket, because it takes off some of the sharp edges, so to speak, and it's a more professional version than the free open source Git that's widely available."
 

Cons

"The number of users for AWS CodeCommit is generally less compared to other version control systems."
"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"There is room for improvement in Insight Analytics."
"There are some options in Bitbucket that are not available in AWS CodeCommit. For example, code reviewer. We can't add a code reviewer in AWS CodeCommit, and we can't fork the repository online. These are the two things that Bitbucket has, but the solution doesn't have. Also, Jira has a debugging option that AWS CodeCommit doesn't have. Another thing is that Bitbucket charges three dollars per month per user. Compared with AWS CodeCommit, that only charges one dollar per month. So, AWS CodeCommit is cheaper than Bitbucket. But it does not have enough features that Bitbucket has. Additionally, it will be good if you upload one video or documentation on how to use AWS CodeCommit for beginners. That will be more helpful. There you can add more details about pricing. There are not many details about pricing. Bitbucket has a table where they have mentioned everything in detail, like, what features for how much price, how much longer you can use and how many users can use."
"When I compare code, AWS has a cap on the file size, and that size is pretty small compared to what GitHub and GitLab provide."
"The Git interfaces in AWS CodeCommit definitely need work. When we migrated our payment processing system at Huntington, we found the web UI to be basic compared to GitHub and GitLab."
"Not really that much stands out. I am using CodeCommit since my customer asked me to use it. It is just an appliance, and GitHub and GitLab can do a better job."
"There is room for improvement in how AWS CodeCommit handles mass changes, like Fortran, which is designed to make these alterations in a friendly manner across AWS requirements."
"Bitbucket should integrate a static code analyzer."
"Even with the automation, we've had some situations where we've had mistakes. Developers have integrated code into the wrong place by mistake, so there's a fairly steep learning curve."
"The UI could be a little better compared to competing solutions."
"Bitbucket doesn't currently offer AI functionalities."
"The product could benefit from enhancements in scaling capabilities for continuous deployment processes and better integration with other cloud platforms beyond AWS."
"Bitbucket should come with code review pre-integrated, which would be better than integrating another tool into the solution."
"When users are given access for the first time, they should have some basic setups to help them specify their purposes."
"Bitbucket's Initial setup is a little complicated because you need to install and configure the solution. It can take one or two days to deploy Bitbucket. If you have a high workload, you can deploy it on multiple server farms as needed"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"As for pricing, you can add the table in detail. You can visit Bitbucket or refer to any other tools. There, you can see what is the difference between your pricing and other prices. You have only mentioned it in a single line. Other tools have been mentioned in a table format, like, how many users, premium, normal accounts, and other things."
"Bitbucket is a low-priced tool."
"I rate Bitbucket's pricing a five out of ten."
"I rate the pricing an eight out of ten because it is cheaper than solutions like GitLab."
"With our small number of users, our licensing fees are approximately $10 USD per month."
"You have to buy additional licenses when you exceed 50 users."
"I rate the product price as two on a scale of one to ten, where ten means that it is a very expensive tool."
"Bitbucket is a cost-effective solution. It is the cheapest in the market. It is lower than GitLab and GitHub."
"When you increase from ten people to anything higher the price increase to one thousand five hundred. That is unsatisfactory and they should have a gradual price slope."
