UT
DevOps Engineer at Huntington Bank
Seamless integration enhances team collaboration and process efficiency
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. Simple things such as viewing directory structures or browsing through commit history and pull request flow could use serious upgrades. We had to create workarounds for features that come standard elsewhere, such as automatically assigning reviewers based on code ownership and setting up required review templates. The search functionality is another pain point, as trying to find specific code across repositories is limited. At Walgreens, we had a large mono repo for our pharmacy services code, and developers constantly complained about how difficult it was to search through it effectively in AWS CodeCommit. I also wish it had better CI/CD visualization built in.

Integrated code tracking has streamlined our development workflows and supports project visibility
The biggest benefit I see from Bitbucket Server is that it is providing all the features which Git is providing. Bitbucket Server is using Git as a source code main tool, and it has all the features that any source code repository can provide. A plus point is that we can install it on-premises and manage it easily. Using Bitbucket Server helps me easily track my code changes and where they belong, which saves a lot of time and effort. Without Bitbucket Server, it is very difficult to track the code and changes. The integration with Jira helps me personally with project tracking because Bitbucket Server is a source code repository. We have our SDLC lifecycle in Jira. Every change or every feature request is created as a ticket in Jira, and this ticket is linked with Bitbucket Server repository. Any changes to the code linked to that feature will go to the repository, and we can track that this is the code changed by this feature.

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 customer service and support for AWS CodeCommit are excellent."
"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 most valuable features of AWS CodeCommit include the least privilege access from IAM, where permissions are granted only for the specific repository the developer is working on, which allows for hundreds of repositories with controlled access per project."
"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."
"The solution is quite scalable."
"AWS CodeCommit is highly user-friendly."
"The solution's most valuable feature is versioning."
"Its integration with Jenkins pipelines for automating builds and performing various checks enhances its utility."
"Bitbucket Server is easy to use. You can use other applications to access it, or you can use it to access the internet. You can use solutions, such as Sourcetree, which is free, and put it on your development system and use it to do the check-in, checkouts, and those type of operations. It is nice, but some other developers may agree."
"The most valuable feature is that it has its own pipelines."
"It can efficiently promote code to different environments."
"The tool makes pushing codes and setting up CI/CD pipelines easy."
"The product’s most valuable features are private repositories and the ability to work as a proxy for implementing CI/CD pipelines."
"The product is easy to maintain."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is server management."
 

Cons

"Although CodeCommit's user interface is good, it can be improved when compared to other version controls like GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket."
"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."
"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."
"Not really that much stands out. I am using CodeCommit since my customer asked me to use it. It is just an appliance, and GitHub and GitLab can do a better job."
"There is room for improvement in Insight Analytics."
"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."
"Migration in and out of CodeCommit should be improved."
"Bitbucket Server installation is a little bit complicated, and it requires vendor support most of the time."
"Bitbucket Server has limited user support for its free version. It is expensive."
"If I want to mail someone a master branch, then sometimes it shows some conflict with other codes in the master branch."
"The solution's user interface could be improved because it's not very user-friendly or intuitive."
"There are absolutely things that could be improved in collaboration features in Bitbucket Server, with respect to people who are not using it every day, such as managers who need to be able to approve things but don't use Bitbucket Server so often."
"The improvements in the product could be made to expand third-party integrations and enhance support for open-source projects."
"It would have been better to use Bitbucket Server if it had something similar to the concept called GitHub Actions since it allows GitHub to provide seamless integration of CI/CD pipelines."
"Bitbucket Server can experience performance issues when pushing a large amount of code. This process may take a considerable amount of time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"AWS CodeCommit is competitively priced against all the other competitors."
"As for licensing, Bitbucket is one of the more affordable options."
"The solution comes as a part of the suite."
"We opted for the on-premises solution, and while it's quite expensive, I believe there's room for improvement in terms of pricing. The licensing is based on the number of users, but I'm not entirely certain about the details."
"One needs to pay towards the licensing charges associated with the product."
"The platform offers a free version for public repositories, which benefits open-source projects."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly. Prices can become expensive if you have a lot of users."
"There is a cost to use this solution but it is based on how many users are using it. If you have 50 users or 1,000 users the price will be very different."
"Bitbucket Server is quite expensive compared to other products."
