High availability, helpful support, and plenty of plugins available

I have used Google Cloud Platform and Amazon AWS for implementing Bamboo. It is not difficult to complete. The length of time it takes for deployment depends on a lot of variables, such as how the pipeline is deployed and what type of infrastructure is present. However, it typically takes only hours not days. I rate the setup of Bamboo a nine out of ten.

Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point

We are using Shippable to automate our CI/CD, so we (and our developers) can focus on our core business. Shippable has tremendously increased our product and features delivery by at least three times. The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It can do the CI pipeline well."

"We use Bamboo to automate all our test builds and deployments. It integrates with tools like the ReportPortal to help us check and evaluate processes. When we initiate commands, it automatically checks for scaling issues or failures related to new code. Based on these evaluations, it provides reports in the ReportPortal, helping us decide whether to implement changes."

"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."

"In my experience Bamboo is scalable."

"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."

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

"The tool is useful for continuous deployment."

More Bamboo pros

"Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point with the additional pipelines making it more interesting to see what is happening across your development process in a single pane of glass."

"The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug with any of our favorite tools."

Cons

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

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

"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."

"It's a little outdated.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

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

"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."

"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."

"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."

More Bamboo cons

"They could work on reducing the number of permissions required while using Bitbucket."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"The price of Bamboo is reasonable."

"There is a subscription required to use Bamboo."

"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 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."

"The pricing is the cheapest compared to the other platforms out there."

Bamboo vs. Jenkins

A biased and subjective comparison of Bamboo and Jenkins as CI servers for mobile development, based on practical experience with both. Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (Delivery, Distribution) has been around for quite a while. But surprisingly enough on a global scale it pretty…
