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

"Bitrise has positively impacted our organization by improving release speed."
"With Bitrise, as a team of 10 to 12 people, we are able to independently generate the build and save overall 20 to 40 hours per day."
"The faster deployment with Bitrise allows us to get to the market quickly, enabling us to receive feedback from clients rapidly, test our application internally, and deliver more robust solutions efficiently."
"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 gives us the full development life cycle automation, and it is very good to use."
"Since I started using Bitrise, the development time, specifically the time that I spend on sharing these builds and handling the release process, is significantly reduced."
"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 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."
"The major impact that I have noticed is how business users are now being impacted and they are using the platform because they understand it easily."
"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."
"I have used many solutions, but Glean Platform is the best, and I would truly appreciate it if everyone considers this platform."
"The best features Glean Platform offers include the ability to create my own agents, for example, I created a self-service agent for my stakeholders, so rather than email me, I sent them a link to an agent where the agent asks them questions and drills down to exactly what they need, and then I get a qualified response from them."
"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."
"Life became so easy when we started using Glean Platform."
"Glean Platform has positively impacted my organization by speeding up a lot of repetitive tasks and making it easier for people outside of support to understand what kind of issues impact the support groups."
 

Cons

"I think Bitrise could be improved if it was easier to generate Android QA and iOS at the same time."
"The improvement I would suggest for Bitrise is that the cost is significantly the friction point."
"Bitrise can be improved by offering a more customizable dashboard, faster troubleshooting for failed builds, and more advanced cost visibility for pipeline usage."
"The only downside I have to mention about my main use case is that debugging a failed build can sometimes be time-consuming, and whenever the build fails, it becomes expensive for the larger projects."
"Sometimes the builds fail, and the error messages that I get are not very descriptive."
"One improvement Bitrise can have is enhanced debugging tools for analyzing failed builds."
"Bitrise is sometimes stable, and sometimes I experience problems with Bitrise."
"Bitrise can be improved by offering a more customizable dashboard, faster troubleshooting for failed builds, and more advanced cost visibility for pipeline usage."
"My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Glean Platform reveals limited options, and I wish there was more customization available."
"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."
"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."
"Currently, Glean Platform does not integrate with Teams, Microsoft-owned platforms."
"There are multiple ways in which Glean Platform can be improved."
"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."
