Munisaiteja Narravula - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficient integration of code changes with seamless private repository management
AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly. It doesn't require any complex authentication, which makes the process seamless. Deployments happen in a straightforward manner once the code is organized correctly in the repository. The platform allows the creation of private repositories, securing and restricting access to our team members only. This ensures that unauthorized users cannot access sensitive files. AWS CodeCommit also integrates well when we use it with Check Point allowing us to implement information in the criteria we need.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution's most valuable feature is versioning."
"AWS CodeCommit is simple and cheap."
"AWS CodeCommit has the usual version control features, and it integrates with AWS CodeGuru for code reviews."
"It helps us to install our code idea projects."
"AWS CodeCommit is much easier to use than Bitbucket. It doesn't require any personal password or these things. We just need to put in our AWS account password and username."
"AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly."
"The most valuable feature of AWS CodeCommit is that it acts as a code repository with code versioning and approval features similar to those found on GitHub."
"The customer service and support for AWS CodeCommit are excellent."
"We can watch the newly implemented code. So it's quite nice to organize the teams to see what part of the work is done and what part of the code is already old or new. It is very good for that kind of management."
"This is a very dependable product that is easy to use and it has an excellent GUI interface."
"It allows me to track the code from ten years back, which is incredibly useful when trying to understand certain implementations in a project."
"The initial setup was straightforward, especially leveraging its cloud platform deployment options."
"It has a nice user experience to review PRs and provides great pipeline features, integrating well with other Atlassian products."
"The version control feature for our code and the security aspect is valuable to us."
"The tool's automation helped because we onboarded a lot of projects and teams into Bitbucket. The product's automation helped us complete activities in two days which previously used to take around two weeks to complete. We have completely automated processes that were earlier manual. It has good integration with Jira and Jenkins."
"The most valuable thing we have found is the workloads are good in Jira and we are able to control the access."
 

Cons

"The tool should improve its UI."
"There are some options in Bitbucket that are not available in AWS CodeCommit. For example, code reviewer. We can't add a code reviewer in AWS CodeCommit, and we can't fork the repository online. These are the two things that Bitbucket has, but the solution doesn't have. Also, Jira has a debugging option that AWS CodeCommit doesn't have. Another thing is that Bitbucket charges three dollars per month per user. Compared with AWS CodeCommit, that only charges one dollar per month. So, AWS CodeCommit is cheaper than Bitbucket. But it does not have enough features that Bitbucket has. Additionally, it will be good if you upload one video or documentation on how to use AWS CodeCommit for beginners. That will be more helpful. There you can add more details about pricing. There are not many details about pricing. Bitbucket has a table where they have mentioned everything in detail, like, what features for how much price, how much longer you can use and how many users can use."
"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"Migration in and out of CodeCommit should be improved."
"The solution could be more user-friendly and cheaper."
"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"There is room for improvement in how AWS CodeCommit handles mass changes, like Fortran, which is designed to make these alterations in a friendly manner across AWS requirements."
"I think the configuration can be improved because it is getting more complicated and not very well organized."
"I would like to see the security logs option on the tool directly. The current way to work with security logs is through an email protocol."
"Bitbucket's Initial setup is a little complicated because you need to install and configure the solution. It can take one or two days to deploy Bitbucket. If you have a high workload, you can deploy it on multiple server farms as needed"
"The scalability for the cloud version can be improved."
"Bitbucket could improve search and indexing capabilities. There is only basic searching available. There is only the ability to index the main branch but not the subbranches. The search capabilities are dodgy."
"Bitbucket could improve its security. For example, the user access security could improve."
"When users are given access for the first time, they should have some basic setups to help them specify their purposes."
"I rate the support from Bitbucket a four out of five."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive."
"As for pricing, you can add the table in detail. You can visit Bitbucket or refer to any other tools. There, you can see what is the difference between your pricing and other prices. You have only mentioned it in a single line. Other tools have been mentioned in a table format, like, how many users, premium, normal accounts, and other things."
"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"I rate the product price as two on a scale of one to ten, where ten means that it is a very expensive tool."
"Bitbucket is a cost-effective solution. It is the cheapest in the market. It is lower than GitLab and GitHub."
"With our small number of users, our licensing fees are approximately $10 USD per month."
"When it comes to licensing we have the standard plan."
"Licensing is on a monthly basis, it's available on our website. They have a free version, the pro version and then they have an enterprise version, and we're using a kind of the middle of the pro version for about $7 per user per month."
"I rate the price from Bitbucket a four out of five."
"I did not pay for the license as I was using a corporate license. But I think the pricing is fair."
"I rate the pricing an eight out of ten because it is cheaper than solutions like GitLab."
