Christo Louw - PeerSpot reviewer
Director at a computer software company with 11-50 employees
Automation has streamlined build and deployment workflows and provides clear project reporting
Regarding improvements for Bamboo, I can't think of anything right now. Bamboo is serving the purpose that we needed it for. I would say pipelines for model building could be an area of focus. However, I can't really comment on that because I haven't looked at Bamboo to assist with machine learning pipelines. If they haven't focused on building MLOps pipelines, that's definitely an area where they could assist businesses. I haven't looked at what Bamboo offers for MLOps, so it's possible that they've already built in features. Machine learning and AI are in big demand at the moment. If they haven't focused too much on MLOps, that's probably where they can improve.

DevOps Lead at a tech company with 51-200 employees
Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point
We are using Shippable to automate our CI/CD, so we (and our developers) can focus on our core business.  Shippable has tremendously increased our product and features delivery by at least three times. The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In my experience Bamboo is scalable."
"One of the significant benefits of Bamboo is its built-in support for numerous clients and the ability to tailor its capabilities to your specific requirements. This high level of customization enables you to create pipelines that are ideally suited to your needs, making it an invaluable tool for conducting advanced testing."
"The most useful feature of Bamboo is its integration with other solutions such as Jira and BitBucket, also offered by Atlassian, and it is easier to use tools all provided by one vendor."
"We had done some research and found the Microsoft Azure DevOps VSTS was not competent enough to support Core Java lambda functions, so we picked up Atlassian Bamboo and we are happy with it."
"Bamboo, along with its integrated deployment and release pipeline, enabled us to go from a monolithic, once a month release cycle, with many post-release incidents to an on-demand, push-button release strategy where we deployed over 200 times a month with very few to no release-related incidents."
"The platform helps us with automated and timely backup. It provides data replication as well."
"The most valuable features are compiling and deployment."
"With Bamboo's integration with Jira, we were able to update build status and test reports to Jira bugs/tasks."
"The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug with any of our favorite tools."
"Shippable has tremendously increased our product and features delivery by at least three times."
"Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point with the additional pipelines making it more interesting to see what is happening across your development process in a single pane of glass."
 

Cons

"The REST API for our deployment project is still very basic and lacks the ability to provide a decent amount of custom automation."
"It can be challenging for someone new to the system or ecosystem to grasp, making it difficult to train new people and help them understand."
"One area that could be enhanced is the governance process, particularly with regard to building approvals and transitions between stages. In comparison to other solutions, such as Jira, which features a workflow that supports approval processes, this capability is not natively available in Bamboo. To implement this functionality, integration with other solutions, such as GSM may be necessary. Although some add-ons, such as Adaptavist ScriptRunner, are available in the market to circumvent this limitation, they may not offer the exact functionality needed. Therefore, there is certainly room for improvement in this area."
"The performance around the deployment feature could be improved."
"Yes, it needs to allow multiple plans to run on an agent at the same time; dedicating one whole agent is not fair, and in terms of buying and maintaining more infrastructure, it is not scalable either."
"Bamboo could improve by having compatibility with GitLab. It would be better to have this platform for deploying code and storing container registries. Bamboo does not have a container registry. Additionally, there could be more features added."
"The solution needs to support more customization in the training. What's offered is pretty generic. They need better training and should offer more guidance."
"From my personal experience regarding scalability and the ability to scale, I find that sometimes the agents run out of resources and then it takes quite a while to get additional infrastructure."
"They could work on reducing the number of permissions required while using Bitbucket."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Bamboo is reasonable."
"The server products for small teams used to offer excellent pricing. However, Atlassian has since changed the offering and the pricing is more expensive. I do still think the solution offers good value for money."
"There is a subscription required to use Bamboo."
"I rate the product’s pricing a five out of ten."
"I rate the solution's pricing a three out of five."
"If Bamboo could provide more flexibility on pricing, that would help. On the agent side, if you want to increase the number of agents it should be less expensive. If they can provide some better pricing model, it will help, whether we are going to use it or are already using it."
"The pricing is the cheapest compared to the other platforms out there."
