Mansoor-Mohammed - PeerSpot reviewer
SRE at a consultancy with 11-50 employees
Weekly mobile releases have become reliable and pipeline incidents have dropped dramatically
The improvement I would suggest for Bitrise is that the cost is significantly the friction point. Mac build machines are considerably more expensive than Linux equivalents. As our team has grown, the monthly bills have scaled accordingly with limited room to optimize without reducing concurrency. The self-hosted runner option was evaluated as a potential cost-saving measure, but the documentation and tooling for it are still less mature than the cloud product. Build debugging remains a log parsing exercise. There is no interactive debugging session or live SSH access into a failing build environment, which would be a meaningful productive improvement. The analytics dashboard is very minimal and basic and lacks the depth that anyone would want for capacity planning and trend analysis.
Ananya Bl - PeerSpot reviewer
Data Analyst at Capgemini
Daily orchestration of complex ai workflows has boosted my research and automation capabilities
Orchestration primarily decides which agent handles which part of a task and manages errors, retries, and complete state while maintaining the workflow effectively. On the orchestration side, branching, looping, and human approvals support non-linear workflows in production environments with real-time access. Through refined and improved prompts, this helps in closing the loop with actual users. One unique feature that stood out is that every step in the workflow can pause or recover from failures. Instead of finishing the entire agent in one go, this approach is interesting because if there is a minor change in a previously completed step regarding the state, I can re-edit and restart from the beginning. This is truly impressive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Within three months of going live on Bitrise, we moved to weekly releases, and now we have a reliable hotfix pipeline that can ship a production build within 45 minutes to an hour of a fix being merged."
"Bitrise has had a significant positive impact on my organization because we do not have any other platform to realize these builds and deploys with mobile apps."
"Previously, we used to take one day to deploy the application, but now in thirteen to twenty minutes through our automation and with the help of Bitrise's flexibilities, we deploy the application."
"Bitrise has positively impacted my organization by helping me reduce time by around 50% or more while I am using it for my personal project."
"Bitrise has positively impacted my organization because previously we used to generate builds on our local machine, which was very time-consuming, and now all the build generation and the automation execution are directly done on Bitrise, and the automation execution is triggered from Bitrise to AWS Device Farm."
"Bitrise has positively impacted the organization by accelerating release cycles, improving CI/CD reliability, reducing manual intervention, and improving overall development efficiency."
"Bitrise has positively impacted our organization by improving release speed."
"The automated build and deployment workflows in Bitrise have made the biggest difference in our organization, greatly reducing manual release overhead and improving our deployment speed."
"The best features Glean Platform offers are mostly the view, which I think is very good, and what I find most helpful about the view is that the user interface is very good, making it very easy to chat with the chatbot and get all the material that I want in the way that I need it."
"When I searched for internal information spread across different systems, Glean Platform did centralize and retrieve that data for me effectively, giving me eighty percent accuracy."
"Since I have joined, I have built around ninety agents with Glean Platform, and it has saved our organization around twenty-seven hours a week for each user, and it has also positively impacted our ARR."
"Glean Platform has increased productivity by at least one hundred hours per week for my organization."
"Glean Platform has positively impacted our organization, especially in terms of productivity for both us and our customers."
"Glean Platform offers excellent user interface design and integration capabilities with other platforms."
"I have used many solutions, but Glean Platform is the best, and I would truly appreciate it if everyone considers this platform."
"Productivity has really skyrocketed."
 

Cons

"One improvement Bitrise can have is enhanced debugging tools for analyzing failed builds."
"The biggest improvement I would say is that in the workflow, we have a plugin script, and that script window is dynamic."
"Sometimes the builds fail, and the error messages that I get are not very descriptive."
"Improvements I would like to see in Bitrise include more customizable dashboards, better analytics and reporting, faster troubleshooting of failed builds, and more advanced cost visibility for pipeline usage."
"Bitrise can be improved because it has limited debugging capabilities. If there is an error in build generation, it is somewhat difficult to debug what exactly the error is."
"Bitrise has to work more on the error part. Sometimes I face issues when I trigger a build to generate, and I get a build failed without getting the proper log, which sometimes makes the user too annoyed."
"They need to add some extra documentation for how to use the parameters, such as variables, where to add them, and how to use them below the workflow."
"Bitrise is sometimes stable, and sometimes I experience problems with Bitrise."
"In workflow agents, I would prefer that we do not use AI in every step and instead we have a toggle button or something which can configure whether AI should be used in this specific search field or not, or in this specific node or not, because currently it's using AI in all nodes which sometimes messes up the output."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that the licenses were expensive, and it was hard to convince the company to adopt based on that."
"Sometimes Glean Platform gets slowed down."
"Currently, Glean Platform does not integrate with Teams, Microsoft-owned platforms."
"I tried pulling in an architecture diagram of a workflow, and it pulled in some other image instead."
"Glean Platform can implement more models. The NLP creation could be a little faster, and while debugging is amazing, the routing also needs to provide higher quality outputs sometimes rather than extensive searching."
"Also, the latency that the platform offers is a little high right now; what I have noticed is that on a particular query, the user has to wait a long time in order to get responses."
"I chose seven out of ten because if I could upload PDFs and have them analyzed, or have it integrate with my Gmail and help me go through my emails, that would be very useful, but I do not think it does that."
