Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Customer support is excellent, quick response from product specialists."
"We find it to be a very good fit for what we need to accomplish and it's very easy to manage and to maintain it from an enterprise skill perspective, as well."
"This product is an innovative market leader in the field of application deployment."
"For us the flexibility of this product is nice, we can manage several things within one file and by giving parameters to the deployables."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is that it is vendor-agnostic and it has a file called Manifest, which makes it possible for developers, ops people, and system admins to cooperate."
"Quicker and more solid installations."
"The main quality is still to have a One Click process, then you save precious time."
"The product has a flexibility that allows it to work with various deployments and various technologies."
"It's a deployment tool; it does one thing, and it does it well."
"The UI is very intuitive."
"Deployment is valuable. It deploys well."
"The rollback feature has been most valuable; we can write scripts from scratch, and Octopus maintains an independent package for every deployment."
"This has always been our choice for continuous product development."
 

Cons

"I’d like better reporting possibilities."
"The GUI deserves some improvements."
"Though the product is very good, I think the product can still be improved in a couple of ways."
"The solution currently has a bug that causes performance issues. They need to resolve this in a future release."
"Customer service was not very good."
"While it is a flexible product and provides a means of integrating with virtually anything, the company should make a better effort to keep up with new platform integrations."
"Our customers have not been happy with technical support. They need to do much better to help clients solve issues."
"GUI: uses Adobe Flash which is a bit of a pain (Soon to be replaced by a new GUI with HTML5 and AngularJS)."
"You've got to jump through a few hoops to get some things configured, but if set up, you can do so many different things in it. So, there is complexity."
"This solution could be improved by making it easier to divide variables in YAML file or JSON files."
"There could be scope for more integration with other platforms."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product’s pricing is acceptable. We get volume discounts."
"Pricing costs are based on annual subscriptions."
"I don't know the exact cost, but it's not exorbitant. It may be a couple of thousand dollars a year or something like that. I'm not sure, but it's reasonable. We get value for money out of it."
