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.

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

"It's one of the best solutions in this line of work. We have many Atlassian products. We use Bamboo, JIRA, Service Desk, and some other Atlassian plugins. We like that it's easy to integrate into each other. It's a suite of services."
"Bamboo has proven its value for the teams."
"The technical support provided by Atlassian is very good."
"Bamboo was used extensively in our organization for PCA compliance."
"We use Bamboo to automate all our test builds and deployments. It integrates with tools like the ReportPortal to help us check and evaluate processes. When we initiate commands, it automatically checks for scaling issues or failures related to new code. Based on these evaluations, it provides reports in the ReportPortal, helping us decide whether to implement changes."
"It's one of the best solutions in this line of work; we have many Atlassian products, including Bamboo, JIRA, Service Desk, and other Atlassian plugins, and we like that it's easy to integrate them with each other as a suite of services."
"The most valuable features of Bamboo are its performance and UI. Additionally, there are a lot of useful plugins, integration with other solutions, such as Bitbucket and Jira, and a helpful online community."
"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."
"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."
"Shippable has tremendously increased our product and features delivery by at least three times."
 

Cons

"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."
"It's a little outdated. It's three years old."
"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 marketing strategy of Bamboo is an area of concern where improvements are needed."
"The REST API for our deployment project is still very basic and lacks the ability to provide a decent amount of custom automation."
"The performance around the deployment feature could be improved."
"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."
"Bamboo can improve by providing more with scripting, such as they have with Jenkins."
"They could work on reducing the number of permissions required while using Bitbucket."
"They could work on reducing the number of permissions required while using Bitbucket."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a subscription required to use Bamboo."
"I rate the solution's pricing a three out of five."
"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."
"I rate the product’s pricing a five out of ten."
"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 price of Bamboo is reasonable."
"The pricing is the cheapest compared to the other platforms out there."
