"The most notable aspect is its user interface, which we find to be user-friendly and straightforward for deploying and comprehending pipelines. We have the ability to create multiple pipelines, and in addition to that, the resource consumption is impressive."
"Permission separations mean that we can grant limited permissions for each team or team member."
"It is good for monitoring purposes. We are using the build pipelines of Microsoft Azure. They are also valuable."
"I definitely like the pipelines and the ease of management once you're in an enterprise."
"The integration of the whole cycle is the main strength of the tool. If I want to control the cycle with other tools on the market, I would have to use several tools. However, this is not the case with Azure DevOps or TFS."
"Provides agile management of projects."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is task management."
"The features of Azure Repos that we find most impactful are those related to source control management within our DevOps code management processes."
"If someone is considering developing and deploying the infrastructure in this solution, then using this tool is perfect because it's fully integrated with the pipelines and with a server core repository."
"You get a complete solution with Azure DevOps. You can do everything in one place, starting from requirement gathering until you release the product. It is a reliable, scalable, and handy product."
"The documentation really should be improved by including real examples and more setup cases."
"The tool must be more user-friendly."
"The aspect that requires attention is the user management component. When integrating with BitLabs and authenticating through GitLab, there are specific features we desire. One important feature is the ability to import users directly from GitLab, along with their respective designations, and assign appropriate privileges based on that information. Allocating different privileges to users is a time-consuming process for us."
"I would like to see better interoperability with the agile scaling frameworks."
"The communication could work better, especially for the development team."
"I would like to see more customization available to the administrator."
"The ability to extend work items was more flexible than it is now. Talking version control, one of our customers had some issues because they found it very difficult to manage more than 1000 repositories for one team project."
"At times, our development work encounters issues, particularly when executing numerous CI/CD processes."
"I would like to see improvement in the metrics and the dependencies."
"Its interface could be more user-friendly. It could be simplified for users with no prior knowledge. There should also be better tutorials."
"The functions have too much dependency right now, so it makes it really, really hard to upgrade and make a change in the code."
