Useful for continuous deployment, but the stability must be improved

The setup is moderately difficult. It is not highly complicated, but it is not easy. We must go through some steps to complete the implementation. Once the product is implemented, it will be stable. We face some challenges since the tool is deployed on-premise. The capabilities are adequate for our needs, though.

Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point

We are using Shippable to automate our CI/CD, so we (and our developers) can focus on our core business. Shippable has tremendously increased our product and features delivery by at least three times. The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are compiling and deployment."

"Bamboo's integration with the rest of Atlassian's tech tools, like Jira, helps manage the end-to-end development and release process."

"It's one of the best solutions in this line of work. We have many Atlassian products. We use Bamboo, JIRA, Service Desk, and some other Atlassian plugins. We like that it's easy to integrate into each other. It's a suite of services."

"In my experience Bamboo is scalable."

"Bamboo was used extensively in our organization for PCA compliance."

"The most useful feature of Bamboo is its integration with other solutions such as Jira and BitBucket, also offered by Atlassian. It is easier to use tools all provided by one vendor."

"The most valuable feature of Bamboo is that it is a good tool for CI/CD integration."

"It can do the CI pipeline well."

More Bamboo pros

"Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point with the additional pipelines making it more interesting to see what is happening across your development process in a single pane of glass."

"The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug with any of our favorite tools."

Cons

"Scalability depends on the use case. If it is really a big customer with a lot of tests, it might not be a scalable option for them."

"It would be great if Bamboo could introduce a more containerized deployment model."

"The solution needs to support more customization in the training. What's offered is pretty generic. They need better training and should offer more guidance."

"The performance around the deployment feature could be improved."

"It can be challenging for someone new to the system or ecosystem to grasp, making it difficult to train new people and help them understand."

"It's a little outdated. It's three years old."

"Bamboo can improve by providing more with scripting, such as they have with Jenkins. Bamboo is more UI-driven at this time, Jenkins is going in that direction too."

"It should be much easier to use. It shouldn't require a lot of reading to be able to use it. It should have just two or three screens rather than hundreds of screens requiring a lot of clicking. It also requires a lot of integration. It has a steep learning curve. It takes a lot of time to understand and put in the data. There is also no proper training."

More Bamboo cons

"They could work on reducing the number of permissions required while using Bitbucket."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"If Bamboo could provide more flexibility on pricing, that would help. On the agent side, if you want to increase the number of agents it should be less expensive. If they can provide some better pricing model, it will help, whether we are going to use it or are already using it."

"There is a subscription required to use Bamboo."

"I rate the product’s pricing a five out of ten."

"The price of Bamboo is reasonable."

"The server products for small teams used to offer excellent pricing. However, Atlassian has since changed the offering and the pricing is more expensive. I do still think the solution offers good value for money."

"I rate the solution's pricing a three out of five."

"The pricing is the cheapest compared to the other platforms out there."

Bamboo vs. Jenkins

A biased and subjective comparison of Bamboo and Jenkins as CI servers for mobile development, based on practical experience with both. Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (Delivery, Distribution) has been around for quite a while. But surprisingly enough on a global scale it pretty…
