Pros
"We never experienced any problems with scalability."

More Concourse for VMware Tanzu Pros →

"Configuration management: It is so easy to configure a Jenkins instance. Migrate configuration to a new environment just by copying XML files and setting up new nodes.""A lot of support material exists via a single web search of exactly what you're looking for.""This solution has helped us in automating the build and test process, reducing time.""We used it for all continuous integration parts, like automation testing, deployment, etc.""It is very useful for us to be able to collect and manage automatic processing pipelines.""The most valuable feature of Jenkins is its open source.""I like the business logs. It's a very useful tool. Client-server communication is also very fast.""Very easy to understand for newcomers."

More Jenkins Pros →

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

More JFrog Pipeline Pros →

Cons
"I would like to see additional support for things outside of Cloud Foundry."

More Concourse for VMware Tanzu Cons →

"Jenkins can be improved, but it's difficult for me to explain. The initial setup could be more straightforward. If you connect Jenkins with bookings and lockouts, it can be challenging.""Upgrading and maintaining plugins can be painful, as sometimes upgrading a plugin can break functionality of another plugin that a job is dependent on.""We cannot change the ownership of any directory or file or any kind of directory.""UI is quite outdated.""The disadvantage of Jenkins is writing Groovy scripts. There are other CI tools where you do not need to write this many scripts to manage and deploy.""Better and easy-to-use integration with Docker would be an improvement.""In our case, we have several products built using Jenkins. It is quite difficult to navigate into the latest stable build in a given OS.""The UI of Jenkins could improve."

More Jenkins Cons →

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

More JFrog Pipeline Cons →

    Moving to TeamCity from Jenkins At work, we’re slowly migrating from Jenkins to TeamCity in the hope of ending some of our recurring problems with continuous integration. My use of Jenkins prior to this job has been almost strictly on a personal basis, although I pretty much only use Travis nowadays. The biggest difference upon initial inspection is that TeamCity is far more focused on validating individual commits rather than certain types of tests. Jenkins’ front page presents information that is simply not useful in a non-linear development environment, where people are often working in vastly different directions. How many of the previous tests passed/failed is not really salient information in this kind of situation. Running specific tests for individual commits on TeamCity is far more trivial in terms of interface complexity than Jenkins. TeamCity just involves clicking the ”…” button in the corner on any test type (although I wish it wasn’t so easy to click “Run” by accident). I generally find TeamCity a lot more intuitive than Jenkins out of the box. There’s a point at which you feel that if you have to scour the documentation to do anything remotely complex in an application, you’re dealing with a bad interface. One disappointing thing in both is that inter-branch merges improperly trigger e-mails to unrelated committers. I suppose it is fairly difficult to determine who to notify about failure in situations like these, though. It seems like TeamCity pulls up the… Read more →
