Find out in this report how the two AI Software Development solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
I have indeed seen a return on investment as it has saved us hundreds of hours in repetitive tasks, streamlining our follow-up to the leads that we are generating.
I implemented a booking system for my client that previously required data to be entered directly into Google Sheets and reminders to be sent manually; using Make, they have saved about 50% of their time, which equals one labor resource, translating to a significant amount of money saved.
With that extra time each month, I could focus more on sales and upscaling my business, so it is really worth it.
Every time I open a case, I get an immediate response.
BMC AMI DevX's technical support responds very well and takes all cases seriously.
I think the hybrid CI/CD integration with existing enterprise DevOps tools in BMC AMI DevX is very good.
We have escalated a few issues that we faced during some integrations, and we received reasonable responses from Make support.
They were doing the best job for my use cases and my problems.
When I had a problem during the pricing payment, the customer support handled it very well.
From my perspective, I haven't seen BMC AMI DevX struggle in terms of workloads where it needs to be scaled up or scaled down.
BMC AMI DevX Code Pipeline runs on one LPAR, and no matter where someone is in the world, they have to use it on that LPAR.
BMC AMI DevX is absolutely scalable.
When you have an error, it is very hard to do error handling and debugging.
It can handle increasing workloads or more complex automations easily, but I need to set up each and every component carefully.
Make's scalability is very good, and if the pricing were lower, I could scale a lot more.
I would rate BMC AMI DevX as a stable solution that I have been using for years and find working fine.
BMC AMI DevX is very stable for a modern application processing huge workloads.
I have to put my cursor on the field and tap it to bring focus there, or use the tab key multiple times to get to a field on the screen.
To improve BMC AMI DevX, consideration should be given to cloud-style provisioning and development models, as well as integration of more AI capabilities.
The startup of BMC AMI DevX takes a long time to start up before it loads. It takes a good solid two to three minutes before it's ready so that you can work on it.
There should be clarity about whether the data is secure while passing through these automations or integrations created within Make.
I would love to have more detailed logs, step-by-step error tracing, and better visualization of failed executions, as I think it would improve the user experience significantly.
The lagging problem needs to be solved.
Licensing was affordable.
I found a solution that allows me to use Make almost for free, just using the Docker on-premises.
It's cost-effective and it's pocket-friendly.
The CI/CD offering allows integration of quality checks and unit test processes into the pipeline, which improves compliance and enhances productivity, enabling developers to focus on development while the pipeline automates integration.
BMC AMI DevX's tools have affected my developers' productivity and efficiency by helping with the speed.
BMC AMI DevX positively impacts my organization with its modern VS Code and Eclipse development environment, integrated debugging, AI-assisted code understanding, automated CI/CD pipelines, and end-to-end mainframe DevOps workflow.
Make has positively impacted my organization by enabling us to solve use cases for hundreds of clients across hundreds of different platforms, providing the customization capabilities to automate accounting and invoicing processes that save dozens of man-hours a month, and allowing us to build custom churn, retention, and engagement costs that have driven a 30% reduction in churn.
Instead of spending several days implementing and testing API integrations inside our FastAPI back end, I was able to build the workflows in a few hours using Make.
The task that I would complete in a span of one day is completed in a matter of minutes by using Make.
