Featured Reviews

Munisaiteja Narravula - PeerSpot reviewer
Efficient integration of code changes with seamless private repository management
AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly. It doesn't require any complex authentication, which makes the process seamless. Deployments happen in a straightforward manner once the code is organized correctly in the repository. The platform allows the creation of private repositories, securing and restricting access to our team members only. This ensures that unauthorized users cannot access sensitive files. AWS CodeCommit also integrates well when we use it with Check Point allowing us to implement information in the criteria we need.
Cuneyt-Gurses - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps us improve our development workflows and enhance team collaboration
Our primary use case for Bitbucket revolves around version control and collaborative development. We utilize it extensively to manage our codebase, facilitate Git operations, and automate our CI/CD pipelines on the Bitbucket Cloud platform. This setup enables seamless collaboration among our team…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What I find best about AWS CodeCommit is its seamless integration with the AWS ecosystem."
"The solution scalable."
"The most valuable feature of AWS CodeCommit is that it acts as a code repository with code versioning and approval features similar to those found on GitHub."
"The solution is quite scalable."
"It helps us to install our code idea projects."
"The customer service is pretty good."
"AWS CodeCommit is much easier to use than Bitbucket. It doesn't require any personal password or these things. We just need to put in our AWS account password and username."
"AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly."
"Bitbucket is an integral part of our CI/CD project."
"Bitbucket provided benefits including ease of use and a good visual representation of some of the reports, which helped us significantly."
"You can use Bitbucket to whitelist IP addresses during deployment."
"The most valuable thing we have found is the workloads are good in Jira and we are able to control the access."
"Bitbucket is significantly cheaper compared to GitHub and it provides on-premises hosting."
"It is easy to write code and store it in the central repository."
"Code check in and code version control."
"I find Bitbucket's branching, pull requests, and branch mergers very valuable."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement in how AWS CodeCommit handles mass changes, like Fortran, which is designed to make these alterations in a friendly manner across AWS requirements."
"The solution could be more user-friendly and cheaper."
"The tool should improve its UI."
"Lately, it is turning out to be a little expensive. The market is preferring Azure because it offers resources at a much cheaper price."
"The Git interfaces in AWS CodeCommit definitely need work. When we migrated our payment processing system at Huntington, we found the web UI to be basic compared to GitHub and GitLab."
"There are some options in Bitbucket that are not available in AWS CodeCommit. For example, code reviewer. We can't add a code reviewer in AWS CodeCommit, and we can't fork the repository online. These are the two things that Bitbucket has, but the solution doesn't have. Also, Jira has a debugging option that AWS CodeCommit doesn't have. Another thing is that Bitbucket charges three dollars per month per user. Compared with AWS CodeCommit, that only charges one dollar per month. So, AWS CodeCommit is cheaper than Bitbucket. But it does not have enough features that Bitbucket has. Additionally, it will be good if you upload one video or documentation on how to use AWS CodeCommit for beginners. That will be more helpful. There you can add more details about pricing. There are not many details about pricing. Bitbucket has a table where they have mentioned everything in detail, like, what features for how much price, how much longer you can use and how many users can use."
"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"When I compare code, AWS has a cap on the file size, and that size is pretty small compared to what GitHub and GitLab provide."
"Bitbucket should consider having a CI/CD if they don’t have it already."
"Bitbucket pipelines could be enhanced by adding scalability and caching."
"Bitbucket could improve pipeline building and deployment. Our deployments are not using the Bitbucket. Deployments we are going through Azure DevOps, but the integration is happening in Bitbucket."
"In Bitbucket, manual processes are needed to handle changes between repositories."
"When users are given access for the first time, they should have some basic setups to help them specify their purposes."
"Bitbucket's stability isn't flawless. It has crashed on me occasionally, but I haven't yet lost anything after a crash."
"It goes well with other Atlassian solutions like Jira or Bamboo, but integration with other third-party solutions is more complex."
"The product could be less expensive for small companies."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"The solution is expensive."
"As for pricing, you can add the table in detail. You can visit Bitbucket or refer to any other tools. There, you can see what is the difference between your pricing and other prices. You have only mentioned it in a single line. Other tools have been mentioned in a table format, like, how many users, premium, normal accounts, and other things."
"Sometimes there are issues in obtaining licenses and the pricing could be improved."
"Bitbucket is an inexpensive product."
"Bitbucket is a cost-effective solution. It is the cheapest in the market. It is lower than GitLab and GitHub."
"I did not pay for the license as I was using a corporate license. But I think the pricing is fair."
"I understand Bitbucket's cost is on the higher side."
"The product offers competitive pricing structures for small to medium-sized businesses, which is especially beneficial for smaller teams."
"You have to buy additional licenses when you exceed 50 users."
"A full licensing cost is paid for Bitbucket."
