Since I started using Bitrise, the development time, specifically the time that I spend on sharing these builds and handling the release process, is significantly reduced.

Bitrise has positively impacted my organization because previously we used to generate builds on our local machine, which was very time-consuming, and now all the build generation and the automation execution are directly done on Bitrise, and the automation execution is triggered from Bitrise to AWS Device Farm.

Bitrise gives us the full development life cycle automation, and it is very good to use.

Bitrise has had a significant positive impact on my organization because we do not have any other platform to realize these builds and deploys with mobile apps.

The improvement I would suggest for Bitrise is that the cost is significantly the friction point.

As for Bitrise's AI capabilities, the accuracy and reliability of output were not that good. Most of the time, it redirected me to a human or advised me to open a ticket, so it was not really useful.

Bitrise has to work more on the error part. Sometimes I face issues when I trigger a build to generate, and I get a build failed without getting the proper log, which sometimes makes the user too annoyed.

Bitrise can be improved because it has limited debugging capabilities. If there is an error in build generation, it is somewhat difficult to debug what exactly the error is.

One improvement Bitrise can have is enhanced debugging tools for analyzing failed builds.

They need to add some extra documentation for how to use the parameters, such as variables, where to add them, and how to use them below the workflow.

I think Bitrise could be improved if it was easier to generate Android QA and iOS at the same time.
