Incredibuild, the world’s leading platform for development acceleration, lets you deliver faster developer cycles and shorten your time-top market with more compute power and lower costs on prem and the cloud.
Based on user feedback, the most valuable features of Incredibuild are its ability to significantly accelerate builds and compilation processes, its seamless integration with various development environments, and its efficient utilization of resources across a network of machines. Users appreciate the improved productivity and reduced waiting time achieved through Incredibuild's distributed computing capabilities. Additionally, the software's easy setup and compatibility with popular tools and platforms make it highly convenient for developers.
Users have encountered logging instability and exceptions from the Coordinator without any explanation. They suggest providing more information about crashes to help understand and resolve these issues.
The use of Incredibuild has significantly reduced the time required for code generation during builds, from an hour and a half to just half an hour. This time-saving feature has benefited developers and ultimately saved money for the company.
Users find the pricing and licensing of Incredibuild to be bothersome. They express frustration with the annual renewal requirement and the potential consequences of missing the deadline. They suggest alternative solutions, such as eliminating the need for yearly renewals or implementing an enterprise license agreement to save time for the development team.
The primary use case of Incredibuild is to decrease the time for running a specific third-party application for automatic code generation. The reviewer's group at Elbit Systems uses Incredibuild for this task, specifically on their servers that are disconnected from the Internet. It is not used for Visual Studio, C++ compiling, or any other purposes within their organization.
Customers initially faced issues with the stability of Incredibuild, which was caused by their processes not being designed for running multiple processes concurrently. However, once they made the necessary adjustments, they did not require any further assistance from Incredibuild support.
The initial setup for Incredibuild was straightforward and easy. The reviewers found installing and configuring the environment to be simple. However, they acknowledged that it might not be as easy for those who are not software people. The deployment process took a few hours, mainly spent on understanding how to use Incredibuild and incorporating it into their build processes in the TFS environment using the command line tool. Overall, the reviewer had to make changes to their product and processes in order to successfully use Incredibuild.
Based on user experiences, the scalability of Incredibuild's solution is highly regarded. Users have praised its ability to efficiently handle large workloads and accommodate increasing demands without compromising performance. The solution seamlessly scales with growing project sizes and effectively distributes tasks across multiple machines, resulting in improved productivity and reduced processing times. Users have expressed satisfaction with Incredibuild's scalability, noting its seamless integration and ability to handle diverse workloads.
The solution's reliability could be enhanced. The lack of informative logs makes it difficult to comprehend the cause of the instability.
Incredibuild enables every machine to use hundreds of cores to accelerate time-consuming software development by using idle CPUs in network or bursting to the cloud. Use the full potential of your network to raise product quality, iterate more frequently, and increase dev productivity.
Most importantly, Incredibuild works out of the box, no need to change any of your existing toolchain, processes, or code.
Over 2,000 companies worldwide across industries inluding Epic Games, Microsoft, Playstation, Nintendo, Samsung, GM, Intel, CitiGroup, Qualcomm, Boeing, Motorola, Qt, and more accelerate their development and enhance their devs’ productivity with Incredibuild.
