"The most valuable feature of Bamboo is that it is a good tool for CI/CD integration."
"One of the big things that made us choose Bamboo, is it seamlessly integrates its APIs into NetSuite, which is our main ELP system."

"It's a highly customizable DevOps tool."
"It would be great if Bamboo could introduce a more containerized deployment model."
"One area that could be enhanced is the governance process, particularly with regard to building approvals and transitions between stages. In comparison to other solutions, such as Jira, which features a workflow that supports approval processes, this capability is not natively available in Bamboo. To implement this functionality, integration with other solutions, such as GSM may be necessary. Although some add-ons, such as Adaptavist ScriptRunner, are available in the market to circumvent this limitation, they may not offer the exact functionality needed. Therefore, there is certainly room for improvement in this area."
"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."
"The solution needs to support more customization in the training. What's offered is pretty generic. They need better training and should offer more guidance."
"The marketing strategy of Bamboo is an area of concern where improvements are needed."
"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."
"The performance around the deployment feature could be improved."
"Bamboo’s technical support services, in terms of speed of response, need improvement."
"There's also room for improvement in debugging pipeline issues, which can sometimes become complex."
