Microsoft Azure DevOps Reviews

The two most valuable features are Azure Pipelines for DevOps automation, and Azure Test Plan for test management.

It is quite easy to create a pipeline, from continuous integration to automated testing, to continuous delivery, performance testing, and continuous deployment. It's graphical representation and tools are easy to use.

The automated testing in DevTest is the big advantage of Azure DevOps.

Non-functional testing such as security testing, penetration testing, and performance testing could be improved. 

This Cloud solution is very stable.

We have approximately one hundred users, the majority of which are developers. There are some project managers and team leads, as well as different levels of management who present to stakeholders.

Currently, two or three of our development teams use Azure DevOps. In the future, we plan to include five more teams. This will grow the number of active users from one hundred to two or three hundred.

I have not used Microsoft support directly. We have an internal support team that is dedicated to Office 365, Azure DevOps, and other Microsoft solutions.

Prior to this, we used Team Foundation Server versions 2017 and 2018 on-premise, and it was a stable solution.

We also used the Atlassian stack, including Jira, Bamboo, and Confluence, all on-premise. The problem is that the on-premise version has an expiry. We moved to a cloud solution because it is easy to support, easy to upgrade, and easy to stage our products. It is distributed between our offices, as we have development teams split into different locations around the country. The cloud-based solution is the best way to integrate our development effort.

I have also worked with HP ALM/Quality Center in the past.

The initial setup for this solution is quite easy.

Our internal DevOps team handled the implementation.

I have worked with other products, and this is the best solution in the market in 2019.

Deployment of solutions on Azure DevOps is a perfect way to provide Disaster Recovery and High Availability. This is a straightforward solution, and I would suggest not wasting any time looking at others.

Right now, this is the best solution.

I would rate this solution ten out of ten.

I like the management features and the user interface is very friendly.

It is not clear what features have been added or enhanced since the last version. My customer used a previous version and it did not meet their expectations, so clarification with respect to the new version is needed on their website or other venues.

I would like to see more customization available to the administrator. You need to change the workflow of the end result.

I did not load the application heavily, but it was stable.

I only tested this solution with a single user. I think that it is scalable, as long as you increase the resources as you move to a larger scale.

I have not been in touch with technical support yet.

The initial setup is very simple.

I performed the setup myself, on my laptop.

I would advise someone considering this solution to use Microsoft because it is very user-friendly, it can run on small levels of applications, can be calibrated to the application, it can be scaled to a larger scale, from small scale to larger scale. It's very stable, you just need to increase the receptors if you need to scale to a larger scale. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Full DevOps suite.

Allows for source control and CI/CD pipelines while linking back to the work items on the Kanban board.

CI/CD pipelines and repositories.

Information to make it easier to choose items from the marketplace (like MS verified), etc.  Otherwise, every item requires a full InfoSec review.

• Source code management
• Git repository management including a visualizing for the pull requests process
• Build automation
• Continuous integration
• Project management
• Test management 
• Release automation
• Deployments automation
• Artifacts management
• Package management
• Agile planning 
• Dashboards and reports
• Requirement management
• Work estimation 
• Capacity management
• Backlogs and Kanban boards for different teams
• Load test 
• Integration test automation and unit test projects with status reports on the test results.

Azure DevOps helps us to implement all our DevOps practices with a complete end-to-end cycle starting from code commit till the production deployment including continuous feedback.

This enables us to release the silos between the teams and enhance collaboration. Also, it gives us more control on the project delivery lifecycle and to fix the issues more earlier than before as we are aligned and working on one integrated system which can give us reports about any piece of info.

• Linking the project teamwork (bugs, tasks, user stories, test cases ) with the code, build, release, delivery
• It's a matter of integration to have only one platform for all your software development life cycle.

• Enable more control on Application Insights integration to open different types of work items as this is area still need more enhancements.
• Test management extension is too high to be paid on a monthly basis.
  
• Test and feedback chrome extension still need more development as they are not very stable.

We use all the DevOps features and services, like reports, Boards, Pipelines, Artifactory, etc. The interface is interactive and intuitive. The platform visuals and workflow are straightforward in Azure DevOps.

We've been using Azure DevOps for three years.

DevOps' stability is great. No problems.

The infrastructure is good so far, and expanding our user base isn't a problem. Microsoft takes care of the infrastructure.

We are billed for a single license, no matter how many users. 

I rate Azure DevOps eight out of 10. 

We provide this solution to our clients. The company we're currently assisting has had a lot of issues using Jenkins and decided to move the CI/CD pipelines to Azure DevOps. I'm a solution architect and we are partners with Microsoft. 

The solution offers great features including the project management feature and the Git-based repository. There is also the Azure pipelines and release artifact so you have all the functionality in one tool. It's also a relatively cheap solution.  

The only area that requires improvement is the interface. 

Stability is good. 

Scalability is good. 

The technical support is good.

The initial setup is easy. We had a team of three engineers dealing with implementation. 

Licensing costs are very reasonable compared to other solutions. It's a good price.

My only advice would be to go for the cloud version of DevOps, it's a better product. 

I rate the solution eight out of 10. 

I have many microservices, and I am using Azure DevOps to deploy my microservices and build a global platform for payments.

Azure Pipeline and Azure Release are most valuable. I use Azure DevOps through pipeline and release.

It should have security features for scanning the code and checking it for vulnerability and security. Currently, I am using other tools for this. It should also have integration with other tools to improve security.

I have been using this solution for two years.

It is stable.

It is scalable. Currently, we have 400 users, and they are DevOps engineers and developers.

They have helped me with the problems. They are very good.

I have only used Azure DevOps.

It is very simple to install. Its deployment takes a very short time.

I would recommend this solution. I like Azure DevOps.

I would rate Microsoft Azure DevOps a nine out of ten.

We use this solution for cloud administration, cloud infrastructure, the database, as an application server, development, and more.

I like the cloud infrastructure of Microsoft Azure DevOps.

I would like to see new features added.

My corporation is currently using this solution.

I have had no issues with the stability of this solution.

Scalability-wise, I have not had any problems.

Everything is fine with our internal customers and our corporation.

Technical support is good.

I don't have a problem with the pricing.

I would rate Microsoft Azure DevOps a ten out of ten.
