Flags....Feature flags

  • September 22, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Rolling out new features in a more controlled way
What do you dislike about the product?
We are more of terraform users, so i am still trying to figure out how to use feature flag with terraform and our CI/CD. Unfortunately we have not using other cloudbee products and hence this part is still in something we are testing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are currently exploring CloudBees feature flagging to make specific capabilities available to specific classes/sets of users

Automation is necessary and so is CloudBees CI

  • September 22, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CloudBees CI is a great tool for automation. Automation is the need of the hour for each individual for each firm. Automation helps you speed up processes and decrease the time taken to be delivered to the customer. That is what is needed. Everyone has very less time and want things integrated and delivered quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The errors can be more subtle and crisp. Using some scripting the errors can be made more readable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
there are multiple benefits as can be seen while using the tools, including the interface and how it is to use the tool. the tool is a lot handy to use and interact with. In this automation workd such tools help in faster and continuous integration.

Well supported orchestration for your CI pipelines

  • August 23, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Scripted masters and Kubernetes based system which allows us to scale out our pipelines and services without manual intervention.
What do you dislike about the product?
Upgrading and keeping an eye for patches can be time-consuming. Though the Cloudbees support and advisor removes the time for investigations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have saved numerous hours of maintenance and debugging by taking advantage of CloudBees support and their CI advisories.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CloudBees CI is flexible with a large ecosystem of every needed plugin and well supported by their support team. With helm, upgrading Cloudbees CI is easier than it's ever been, though it still requires keeping an eye on the changes and parsing the release notes with a critical eye. A poorly executed upgrade can take your system offline for hours.

Abstraction at it's best

  • August 21, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of upgrade and updating the plugins
What do you dislike about the product?
No feature to enable/disable the license. Please include a feature where we can disable/enable the license, this will be useful when we create a clone/snapshot. I have faced this issue during the restoration of the snapshot/backup it starts showing the new instance as a standby CI server and there is no such option to induce and test VM level failure.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A very stable platform and helps us run our build process round the clock.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CloudBees people are best at what they make and do. Do not be doubtful and don't think much, just go for it. You'll never regret your decision.

Amazing CI platform integrates smoothly with Cloud solutions

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Cloudbees Jenkins Operation Centre is the best CI tool integrates well with AWS & other cloud providers.
Cloudbees documentation on integration with other solutions is top notch. I faced initial hiccups with setting up Kaniko integration for docker-less build of images and pushing to Amazon ECR but once I went through the self explanatory documentation of Cloudbees Jenkins with Kaniko pipeline it was just matter of minutes to get up and running.

The Cloudbees Plugin Catalogue is also very helpful in choosing the right plugin with Cloudbees Support enabled. We don't use any plugin which is not approved by Cloudbees. This way our systems & apps stay much safer than before.

Cloudbees support has provided exceptional support and guidance for numerous projects and helped us get over the line with confidence.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cloudbees could think about a competitive pricing, even though it has an enormous count of products and well maintained support system for each of them, there are some areas where I personally felt the pricing could have been 5-10% less.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have re-architected our whole CI platform on AWS EKS using Cloudbees Jenkins Operation Centre where we have ephemeral containerized build agents
as compared to previously used Static VMs we are saving close to a $1M every year.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The best time to get onboard with Cloudbees is "TODAY" analyze your requirement and talk to any cloudbees support channel you would get all the answers immediately. The Products are very well maintained and with every new upgrade you get new features right out of the box.

The Cloudbees support and guidance is unparalleled to any vendor. I personally felt like they held my hands in every tough situation and helped me fix the issue ASAP.

You can also ask for future features as RFEs (Request For Enhancement) so their engineers would prioritize the work and deliver as a new upgrade.

There are endless possibilities with Cloudbees and their model of operation, being an active user/administrator of Cloudbees Jenkins for over 4 years, I can tell the difference it offers right away.

The standard in CI/CD - with great advantages of the paid version, but also disadvantages

  • August 20, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Jenkins is extended by many helpful enterprise plugins like role based access, templates and many more and especially by connecting the various Jenkins to one huge cluster that you can manage and operate like one large Jenkins including trigger and copy artifact. Installed on a cloud system like OpenShift, you can even spin up a new Jenkins with one click. License allows any number of Jenkins instances.
Teams can be onboarded and managed easily with templates.
Automated and quality assured updates of most important plugins make maintenance a lot easier.
Support is professional and fast in most cases.
What do you dislike about the product?
The paid version is quite expensive. The license model was improved - it formerly was per master and executors which could lead to architecture based on license. Today it is better, now based on users (logged in or committing to SCM) , but with high costs per user, which can lead to hight costs very fast or it might lead you to try to limit number of users or switch some projects back to open source Jenkins losing the clustering advantages for these teams.
Changes and bugfixes sometimes can take a long time if they are important for you but not relevant for (many) other customers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Jenkins, the de facto standard for CI, can be a lot more useful with the enterprise plugins and with the clustering option.
You can manage large projects or many teams and projects a lot better than with one large Jenkins (Jenkinstein) or with many small non-connected ones.
Refactoring is made easier by just moving directories/projects around in the cluster.
Jobs can run as if they were on one large Jenkins (i.e. trigger, copy artifacts etc.)
