DevOps Engineer at Huntington Bank
Seamless integration enhances team collaboration and process efficiency
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. Simple things such as viewing directory structures or browsing through commit history and pull request flow could use serious upgrades. We had to create workarounds for features that come standard elsewhere, such as automatically assigning reviewers based on code ownership and setting up required review templates. The search functionality is another pain point, as trying to find specific code across repositories is limited. At Walgreens, we had a large mono repo for our pharmacy services code, and developers constantly complained about how difficult it was to search through it effectively in AWS CodeCommit. I also wish it had better CI/CD visualization built in.

Integrated code tracking has streamlined our development workflows and supports project visibility
The biggest benefit I see from Bitbucket Server is that it is providing all the features which Git is providing. Bitbucket Server is using Git as a source code main tool, and it has all the features that any source code repository can provide. A plus point is that we can install it on-premises and manage it easily. Using Bitbucket Server helps me easily track my code changes and where they belong, which saves a lot of time and effort. Without Bitbucket Server, it is very difficult to track the code and changes. The integration with Jira helps me personally with project tracking because Bitbucket Server is a source code repository. We have our SDLC lifecycle in Jira. Every change or every feature request is created as a ticket in Jira, and this ticket is linked with Bitbucket Server repository. Any changes to the code linked to that feature will go to the repository, and we can track that this is the code changed by this feature.

Cons

"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 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."
"There is room for improvement in Insight Analytics."
"Migration in and out of CodeCommit should be improved."
"The solution could be more user-friendly and cheaper."
"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"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 improvements in the product could be made to expand third-party integrations and enhance support for open-source projects."
"There might be further integration ideas for continuous deployment."
"If I want to mail someone a master branch, then sometimes it shows some conflict with other codes in the master branch."
"The product interface consists of multiple features that are complicated to navigate for new users."
"Bitbucket Server installation is a little bit complicated, and it requires vendor support most of the time."
"Bitbucket Server can experience performance issues when pushing a large amount of code. This process may take a considerable amount of time."
"The user experience is tedious and long-winded. It could also be smoother from an admin's perspective."
"The product requires patching and version improvements. Some functions do not work properly when we move from one version to another. We need a technical improvement. Also, communicating with other Atlassian products becomes cumbersome when we move from one version to another. I want Bitbucket Server to include a dashboard similar to Jira's. Atlassian must also develop a tool to scan our complete base for vulnerabilities."
 

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."
"The solution is expensive."
"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"The solution comes as a part of the suite."
"As for licensing, Bitbucket is one of the more affordable options."
"We opted for the on-premises solution, and while it's quite expensive, I believe there's room for improvement in terms of pricing. The licensing is based on the number of users, but I'm not entirely certain about the details."
"The platform offers a free version for public repositories, which benefits open-source projects."
"Bitbucket Server is quite expensive compared to other products."
"There is a cost to use this solution but it is based on how many users are using it. If you have 50 users or 1,000 users the price will be very different."
"One needs to pay towards the licensing charges associated with the product."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly. Prices can become expensive if you have a lot of users."
