Bamboo vs Concourse for VMware Tanzu comparison

"The most valuable feature of Bamboo is that it is a good tool for CI/CD integration."

"It's one of the best solutions in this line of work. We have many Atlassian products. We use Bamboo, JIRA, Service Desk, and some other Atlassian plugins. We like that it's easy to integrate into each other. It's a suite of services."

"The most useful feature of Bamboo is its integration with other solutions such as Jira and BitBucket, also offered by Atlassian. It is easier to use tools all provided by one vendor."

"The most valuable features are compiling and deployment."

"In Bamboo, build and deployment have been segregated. The build plan and deployment plan are different. When comparing Bamboo to other solutions, the native feature you will not find in another tool, such as Jenkins. They have segregated the build and deployment plan. This means, building the application and deploying it are two separate parts in Bamboo, they have segregated it apart from the UI. This makes the tool a bit better compared to other tools."

"It can do the CI pipeline well."

"One of the significant benefits of Bamboo is its built-in support for numerous clients and the ability to tailor its capabilities to your specific requirements. This high level of customization enables you to create pipelines that are ideally suited to your needs, making it an invaluable tool for conducting advanced testing."

"Bamboo was used extensively in our organization for PCA compliance."

"We never experienced any problems with scalability."

"It would be great if Bamboo could introduce a more containerized deployment model."

"Bamboo can improve by providing more with scripting, such as they have with Jenkins. Bamboo is more UI-driven at this time, Jenkins is going in that direction too."

"It should be much easier to use. It shouldn't require a lot of reading to be able to use it. It should have just two or three screens rather than hundreds of screens requiring a lot of clicking. It also requires a lot of integration. It has a steep learning curve. It takes a lot of time to understand and put in the data. There is also no proper training."

"Bamboo is a bit complicated to use compared to other solutions, such as GitLab. You have to integrate different actions that are difficult that could be made easier."

"It can be challenging for someone new to the system or ecosystem to grasp, making it difficult to train new people and help them understand."

"The marketing strategy of Bamboo is an area of concern where improvements are needed."

"It's a little outdated. It's three years old."

"Bamboo’s technical support services, in terms of speed of response, need improvement."

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

"The server products for small teams used to offer excellent pricing. However, Atlassian has since changed the offering and the pricing is more expensive. I do still think the solution offers good value for money."

"There is a subscription required to use Bamboo."

"I rate the product’s pricing a five out of ten."

"If Bamboo could provide more flexibility on pricing, that would help. On the agent side, if you want to increase the number of agents it should be less expensive. If they can provide some better pricing model, it will help, whether we are going to use it or are already using it."

"The price of Bamboo is reasonable."

"The solution is bundled in with Cloud Foundry so the pricing is not independent."
