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

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."
"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."
"AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly."
"It helps us to install our code idea projects."
"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's user interface is nice, and it's easy for people to pick up."
"The customer service and support for AWS CodeCommit are excellent."
"It is a really good product where you can easily create your repository and integrate it with other tools such as IAM to handle the user and management aspects of the repository."
"Bitbucket is a standard git implementation with perfectly coordinated screens, it's secure, and we have had no problems with it."
"The planning model is good, and so is the suite of applications around it."
"The most valuable feature is the bundle itself because we use them all."
"Bitbucket is feasible and friendly compared to Visual Studio DevOps on the Microsoft platform."
"Bitbucket's most valuable feature is the web interface, which is useful compared to other tools, has a lot of features, and is intuitive."
"Code check in and code version control."
"This is a very dependable product that is easy to use and it has an excellent GUI interface."
"It's straightforward to adapt to, with user-friendly features and a convenient UI."
 

Cons

"Lately, it is turning out to be a little expensive. The market is preferring Azure because it offers resources at a much cheaper price."
"Understanding AWS CodeCommit was a hectic job for developers at first, while it was easier for the DevOps team."
"The number of users for AWS CodeCommit is generally less compared to other version control systems."
"Migration in and out of CodeCommit should be improved."
"There is room for improvement in Insight Analytics."
"The tool should improve its UI."
"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 how AWS CodeCommit handles mass changes, like Fortran, which is designed to make these alterations in a friendly manner across AWS requirements."
"I would like to see the tool's desktop version."
"I think the developers are constantly working on improving the pull requests support."
"Bitbucket has limitations such as community support and built-in pipelines, while GitHub provides public access with many users and projects."
"The product could benefit from enhancements in scaling capabilities for continuous deployment processes and better integration with other cloud platforms beyond AWS."
"Could provide some default branching options for users to adopt."
"Bitbucket doesn't currently offer AI functionalities."
"One of the areas the solution could improve on is when there is a merging conflict it is quite confusing. When I am having a merging conflict I get stuck on the page, then I need to search how to handle the particular problem. For example, finding what the commands are which can be used."
"Bitbucket could improve its security. For example, the user access security could improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"The solution is expensive."
"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."
"I rate the pricing a seven out of ten because it is expensive."
"I rate Bitbucket's pricing a five out of ten."
"I did not pay for the license as I was using a corporate license. But I think the pricing is fair."
"We have approximately 40 licenses for Bitbucket."
"I rate the product price as two on a scale of one to ten, where ten means that it is a very expensive tool."
"I rate the pricing an eight out of ten because it is cheaper than solutions like GitLab."
"Bitbucket is an inexpensive product."
