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

"The customer service is pretty good."
"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."
"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."
"The solution's most valuable feature is versioning."
"AWS CodeCommit is simple and cheap."
"AWS CodeCommit is much easier to use than Bitbucket. It doesn't require any personal password or these things. We just need to put in our AWS account password and username."
"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 is easy to write code and store it in the central repository."
"Code check in and code version control."
"Bitbucket is feasible and friendly compared to Visual Studio DevOps on the Microsoft platform."
"The tool's automation helped because we onboarded a lot of projects and teams into Bitbucket. The product's automation helped us complete activities in two days which previously used to take around two weeks to complete. We have completely automated processes that were earlier manual. It has good integration with Jira and Jenkins."
"It seems to be quite scalable."
"BitBucket is a reliable and user-friendly product."
"Bitbucket has helped improve our organization by speeding up our production efficiency and product delivery processes."
"The most valuable feature of Bitbucket is its issue management."
 

Cons

"Migration in and out of CodeCommit should be improved."
"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."
"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 number of users for AWS CodeCommit is generally less compared to other version control systems."
"Understanding AWS CodeCommit was a hectic job for developers at first, while it was easier for the DevOps team."
"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."
"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."
"The tool should improve its UI."
"Currently, what's lacking in Bitbucket is the assignment feature."
"The UI could be a little better compared to competing solutions."
"Technical support is not very fast."
"Could provide some default branching options for users to adopt."
"Sometimes the performance of Bitbucket is lagging; the UI loading part has some glitches at times, creating frustration for the developers."
"Although Bitbucket is scalable, there's always room for improvement in terms of scalability."
"The installation of Bitbucket on our server was not as easy as other Atlassian products, so it is something that can be improved."
"I rate the support from Bitbucket a four out of five."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"The solution is expensive."
"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 cost-effective solution. It is the cheapest in the market. It is lower than GitLab and GitHub."
"Sometimes there are issues in obtaining licenses and the pricing could be improved."
"Bitbucket is a low-priced tool."
"When it comes to licensing we have the standard plan."
"I did not pay for the license as I was using a corporate license. But I think the pricing is fair."
"I rate the pricing an eight out of ten because it is cheaper than solutions like GitLab."
"A full licensing cost is paid for Bitbucket."
"We have approximately 40 licenses for Bitbucket."
