Automation has accelerated deployments and standardizes pipelines while reducing operational errors
To improve Jenkins on CentOS 10, there are some challenges we ran into, especially when we first started using it. We missed clearer documentation, both for Jenkins as code and for some environment configurations. As a result, a lot of configurations were learned manually through tests with the team. We also missed more stable plugin updates. We had many problems with incompatibility between plugin versions in Jenkins on CentOS 10. What makes those situations challenging is that we had problems starting and restarting the Jenkins on CentOS 10 application when we needed to reuse plugins from the previous version. Once we updated some plugins to the required version, others became incompatible with the current version. It became a cycle where we had to update Jenkins on CentOS 10, the versions of the plugins we used, and the versions of the plugins they depended on, which made configuration and startup quite difficult in some cases.

Centralized API documentation has improved collaboration and reduces onboarding time
Overall, I have had a positive experience with ReadMe, but there are a few areas where I think it could improve. One is customization. While it is easy to create clean documentation, making deeper UI or layout customizations can be somewhat limiting without additional effort. Having more built-in customization options would help teams tailor the developer portal to their branding and documentation needs. I would also like to see more advanced analytics. It would be useful to have richer insights into which APIs are viewed most frequently, where developers spend the most time, and which document pages generate the most support requests. Those metrics could help us continuously improve our documentation. Another improvement would be the tighter integration with Git-based development workflows. While synchronizing documentation works well, making documentation updates, previews, and reviews even more seamless as part of the pull request process would improve the developer experience. All of these are not major issues. They are enhancements that would make an already solid platform even better. Overall, ReadMe has worked well for our API documentation needs. An additional improvement I would like to see is better support for documentation versioning and change tracking. In enterprise applications, APIs evolve over time, and having more intuitive tools to compare versions and clearly highlight changes would make it easier for both internal teams and external consumers to adopt new API versions. I would also appreciate more built-in collaboration features, such as richer review workflows or commenting capabilities for documentation changes before they are published. That would make it easier for developers, QA teams, and technical writers to review documentation together and keep it accurate. Other than those enhancements, I think ReadMe is an easy-to-use platform that has met our API documentation needs. I do not have any major concerns beyond the improvements I already mentioned.

Pros

"The best features Jenkins on CentOS 10 offers in my experience are the automation aspect and CI/CD, which I use a lot."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 has had a positive impact on my organization by making delivery routines easier, avoiding errors and rework."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 gives back a lot of time, allowing me to work with my colleagues on other tasks and make better use of their abilities."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 is the main orchestrator that currently helps us ensure, in an automated way, the quality of the product we are delivering."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 has impacted us positively, mainly because of the open-source nature, and we can customize it to run parallel jobs to reduce the amount of time taken for deployments, reducing it by approximately 40%."
"The Pipeline as Code aspect I mentioned is the most useful feature for us."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 significantly helps my team."
"Jenkins on CentOS 10 is a very good tool for DevOps because it is an established tool with strong CI/CD capabilities."
"Previously, our documentation was split up, but now it is unified through ReadMe, which gives a clear overview and is very easy to navigate, acting as a single source of truth for our business and providing more stability."
"With ReadMe serving as a clear, self-service developer portal, our partners can now complete their integration in a fraction of the time, which has accelerated project delivery timelines, improved our partner satisfaction, and optimized engineering promises."
"Instead of investing time in documentation, ReadMe can document entire APIs quickly and we can just go and do a review, saving a lot of time instead of spending a couple of days or three days on documentation."
"Overall, if your organization wants to improve the developer experience, reduce repetitive support questions, and provide a centralized and professional API portal, I think ReadMe is a strong choice."
 

Cons

"In my experience with pricing, setup costs, and licensing, I found Jenkins on CentOS 10 expensive. The configuration is very burdensome, and that requirement is bad."
"Regarding how Jenkins on CentOS 10 can be improved, it is not specific to CentOS 10, but Jenkins is a bit resource-intensive. It consumes significant system resources, especially if there are large codebases running or large projects running, and running it on a server does cost money."
"Stability in Jenkins on CentOS 10 could be enhanced."
"I think the overall performance of Jenkins on CentOS 10 could be improved because it ends up consuming a bit more memory."
"I give Jenkins on CentOS 10 a score of 8 because I see that some plugins are maintained by the community and are not actually supported by Jenkins."
"I think Jenkins on CentOS 10 could be improved with more known features and plugins because we have a lot of plugins in my organization that I do not completely understand, and we face numerous alerts and security notifications that I do not really have knowledge of."
"The plugins in Jenkins on CentOS 10, while really great because of the huge ecosystem, can also be a pain point because you never know how long they will be maintained, and there's a slight instability there; if you depend on some plugin that does an integration with some product and the plugin is not maintained anymore, you're blocked from using the product features that would integrate through the plugin, and it doesn't have high availability natively."
"I believe Jenkins on CentOS 10 can be improved with enhancements such as the Docker image in the Docker container."
"ReadMe is a software-as-a-service offering only, and there is no way to self-host ReadMe."
"We could probably have more advanced analytics, multi-domain support, or something similar, and advanced access controls."
"On a scale of one to ten, I rate ReadMe overall as eight out of ten. I choose eight out of ten because it is a very strict platform with limited customization."
"One is customization. While it is easy to create clean documentation, making deeper UI or layout customizations can be somewhat limiting without additional effort."
