Bamboo vs Digital.ai Release comparison

"In my experience Bamboo is scalable."

"The most valuable features are compiling and deployment."

"Bamboo's integration with the rest of Atlassian's tech tools, like Jira, helps manage the end-to-end development and release process."

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

"It can do the CI pipeline 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."

"The tool is useful for continuous deployment."

"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 valuable feature of Digital.ai Release is its ability to communicate with various deployment systems, such as XLD and batch deployments, as well as integrate with tools, such as Flyway and Bamboo. We use Bamboo as our build orchestrator, and Digital.ai Release also integrates with Jira, another Atlassian solution. These capabilities make it a powerful tool for managing workflow, test automation, and other processes."

"The time is also reduced because the manual work has tremendously decreased. We just have to click one button, and it will create everything for us."

"The orchestration, building the release, and then just executing it and managing that pipeline — the orchestration capabilities are great for that."

"The solution can apply one template across multiple applications."

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

"The tool is not capable of using YAML efficiently."

"It's a little outdated.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

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

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

"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."

"The performance around the deployment feature could be improved."

"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."

"Currently, we put artifact details manually. What we could improve, in our case, is the deployment instruction base. Developers input all the information, including which artifact and where it needs to be deployed. What Digital.ai could do is automatically go to the deployment instruction page, take those artifact details, and implement them."

"Digital.ai Release could improve by having a better plugin that works with Guardian that we use for mainframe migrations. If there could be an interface or plugin for Guardian that would be beneficial."

"The solution is a little bit expensive."

"The backfill could be improved, we could automate that. Right now it's subjective — it's up to the lead developer's memory to remember to backfill."

"There is a subscription required to use Bamboo."

"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."

"The price of Bamboo is reasonable."

"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."

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

"The solution's license includes all features."

"Overall, the price is just too high; especially considering we're in the middle of a pandemic."
