Find out in this report how the two Release Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Overall, so far we have no major issues to report."
"One of the main features is the user interface is very good."
"The build and release management features are valuable."
"It is a really easy way to define all of the features that you need to deliver. You can link those features to epics and break them down into user stories. You can also assign the user stories into sprints for doing your product improvement planning."
"The integration of the whole cycle is the main strength of the tool. If I want to control the cycle with other tools on the market, I would have to use several tools. However, this is not the case with Azure DevOps or TFS."
"The product is easy to use and very stable."
"The solution is scalable."
"You can have test cases in DevOps but not in JIRA. And, DevOps has advantages in terms of executing those test cases."
"The rollback feature has been most valuable. We can write scripts from scratch. Octopus maintains an independent package for every deployment."
"The UI is very intuitive."
"Deployment is valuable. It deploys well."
"I'd like to have something better for the test plan."
"At times, our development work encounters issues, particularly when executing numerous CI/CD processes."
"They have brought a lot of new collaboration features in the latest version. We haven't used those features, but they should continue to expand it more on the collaboration front so that two developers can look at the code and work at the same time. It will be helpful for working from home."
"Non-functional testing such as security testing, log testing, and performance testing can be improved with a better visualization."
"The solution should have fewer updates."
"The interface is very bad."
"When you compare with Jira, there is a lack of progress features."
"The user management in the solution could improve."
"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."
"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."
