AWS CodePipeline vs Bamboo comparison

"The solution's technical support responds whenever you have an issue, especially whenever you need something sorted out from their side."

"AWS CodePipeline offers multiple integrations and it has its own set of features in the area of code scanning and dynamic code testing."

"The product is a one-stop solution that you can use to integrate, deploy and host your application."

"The tool's recent version helps us to run pipelines in parallel. The integration with other AWS services has greatly impacted our use of AWS CodePipeline. It made tasks such as integrating with Jira and provisioning instances much easier."

"AWS CodePipeline's most valuable feature is its seamless integration with other AWS services, making it easier to orchestrate deployment processes."

"CodePipeline allows integration with any source code and facilitates deployment to EC2 or ECS, which is highly valuable."

"I prefer using CodePipeline and CodeBuild in AWS due to their integration with AWS services, like directly deploying to ECS using Cloud Deploy."

"The management of CodeBuild and CodeDeploy on a three-point trigger basis is an important feature."

"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."

"In my experience Bamboo is scalable."

"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."

"It can do the CI pipeline well."

"The platform helps us with automated and timely backup. It provides data replication as well."

"The most valuable features of Bamboo are its performance and UI. Additionally, there are a lot of useful plugins, integration with other solutions, such as Bitbucket and Jira, and a helpful online community."

"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."

"The migration process from one source code to another needs improvement."

"In AWS CodePipeline, we can only use certain tools for which AWS provisions plugins."

"I would appreciate if we don't have to install any agents, even for EC2, to deploy using CodeDeploy into EC2 servers. It would help if AWS allows application deployment without requiring the Fortify agent installation."

"While CodePipeline's UI has improved, further enhancements in user experience are necessary to make it more intuitive."

"The support team’s response time must be improved."

"The product’s pricing needs improvement."

"AWS CodePipeline is quite a simple tool mostly for management and creating automation."

"AWS CodePipeline functions well, but there's room for improvement in providing technical support to regular customers who haven't purchased developer support. I mean, having it available for everyone, even if it's not a 24-hour service. It would be more useful if specific support hours were available for assistance."

"Integrating workflows with other platforms can be challenging. The capabilities of these platforms sometimes fall short compared to others. Initially, it was difficult for us because the plugins were very limited."

"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 solution needs to support more customization in the training. What's offered is pretty generic. They need better training and should offer more guidance."

"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."

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

"Scalability depends on the use case. If it is really a big customer with a lot of tests, it might not be a scalable option for them."

"Compared to other cloud services, AWS CodePipeline falls a bit more on the pricey side. I see that the price of the product has been increasing for the past few years."

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

"The pricing is manageable."

"The product is quite expensive compared to other solutions."

"AWS charges you based on the number of pipelines you have and how active they are, and I also think that the root account user knows about all the price-related metrics."

"AWS offers free business or enterprise support services."

"The pricing of this solution is dependent upon your needs including how many jobs you daily and how many times the developer will be changing codes and completing deployments."

"AWS CodePipeline is quite affordable. I've been running around four pipelines and the cost is around one dollar per month. It rarely exceeds two dollars."

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

"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."

"I rate the solution's pricing a three out of five."

"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."

"There is a subscription required to use Bamboo."

"The price of Bamboo is reasonable."
