Room For Improvement

CloudBees faces challenges with user interface, performance, and compatibility, needing improvements in GUI, AI integration, and pipeline management.

Another thing that would be good to see is some more metrics on the usage of the GitGuardian pre-push hooks.

The self-healing activity by developers isn't reflected in the analytics, requiring us to collect this data ourselves.

We are looking for better metrics and audit data, wanting more features such as knowing which users are creating the most secrets or committing the most secrets, what repository, what directory, and who is not checking in secrets.

Setup Cost

CloudBees is seen as expensive but offers value through extensive features, with costs often handled by dedicated teams.
GitGuardian is costly but valued for its effectiveness and offers a free tier for small teams, with scalable licensing.

Senior Manager, Product Security at DigitalOcean
GitGuardian Platform performs the capability to detect secrets in real time exceptionally, as it activates from the commit and can detect it immediately.

Featured Reviews

YashBrahmani - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Associate at BNP Paribas CIB
Offers a clear visualization and overview of workflows and helpful in managing CI/CD processes
Improvement in the sense that they can do better in terms of management of logs and stuff like that because the console logs are very extensive, and that causes a lot of storage issues. That is one of the things which is there. Also, with respect to the traditional platform and the modern platform, many things have upgraded, and it has quite improved. But when we talk about the performance of the agents, it’s still very crucial because it’s not up to par. It takes a lot of time to provision the agent and to finish the build because of the SSH connection and the JNLP connection. Due to that, sometimes the agent doesn’t get provisioned. Those are some of the blockers that meet up the time in terms of administering the instance.
Ney Roman - PeerSpot reviewer
DevOps Engineer at Deuna App
Facilitates efficient secret management and improves development processes
Regarding the exceptions in GitGuardian Platform, we know that within the platform we have a way to accept a path or a directory from a repository, but it is not that visible at the very beginning. You have to figure out where to search for it, and once you have it, it is really good, but it is not that visible at the beginning. This should be made more exposed. The documentation could be better because it was not that comprehensively documented. When we started working with GitGuardian Platform, it was difficult to find some specific use cases, and we were not aware of that. It might have improved now, but at that time, it was not something we would recommend.
