Standardized releases have reduced errors and now streamline our cloud resource management
To improve Digital.ai Release, I think the user interface could be improved. For example, I have a plan phase before my build phase, and sometimes the toggle button is hidden. I have to toggle it before the step can be executed, or it will be skipped. Many people who did not use Digital.ai Release before do not even know there is a toggle button, and the first time when they run into that phase, they will definitely skip that step. Regarding needed improvements, I did not do extensive reading on documentation or training material directly from Digital.ai Release. My knowledge comes from the team who has been using it. However, I would appreciate standardized training material that would give me hands-on experience.

YAML-based configuration and simple deployment but user interface needs modernizing
Travis CI is an okay tool, and I am forced to use it as part of my job. I don't maintain it; it is running somewhere else, and I don't have control over it. The interface is very basic and not user-friendly; it feels like it was stuck in 2010. It is very basic and designed for lightweight CI work, and it cannot handle heavy CI. You cannot do branched flows, and you will have to write shell scripts to send calls here and there. The pipelines are not as detailed as some other CI/CD tools. If Travis is down, you don't have any control over it and need to reach out to their customer support.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, it's been a good experience."
"Digital.ai Release has made my work easier and simpler by automating many actions, so I do not have to verify too many points; the tool does it automatically."
"Digital.ai Release offers the best features such as good integration between multiple tools and flexible options for usage; while I have not configured the template myself, I use existing templates and find that anything can be accomplished using the workflows and integrations."
"Overall, I would give Digital.ai Release a rating of nine out of ten; there's always room for improvement, but it's really good."
"The orchestration, building the release, and then just executing it and managing that pipeline — the orchestration capabilities are great for that."
"The time is also reduced because the manual work has tremendously decreased. We just have to click one button, and it will create everything for us."
"Since we started using the manual testing module from Digital.ai, I have seen a positive impact on my organization as our test management has improved significantly."
"Since using Digital.ai Release, one of the benefits is standardizing the way I release to my Azure environment, which in the long term will help me reduce costs and improve efficiency."
"The only thing I like about Travis CI is that you have a YAML file to define a Travis flow."
 

Cons

"The backfill could be improved, we could automate that. Right now it's subjective — it's up to the lead developer's memory to remember to backfill."
"To improve Digital.ai Release, I think the user interface could be improved."
"Sometimes it can be tedious when fulfilling multiple different packages with their key and value pairs."
"One improvement for Digital.ai Release could be to simplify the user interface for beginners."
"Digital.ai Release can be improved by reducing the number of tasks that need to be completed before starting a release, as there are too many tasks to get done."
"The solution is a little bit expensive."
"I would like to improve Digital.ai Release by exploring its cloud capabilities as we are currently in the middle of migrating to the cloud, but I actually have no idea what Digital.ai's cloud capabilities are."
"Digital.ai Release could be improved, particularly because the automated test capabilities are not that strong compared to some major tools like UIPath, Tosca, or SmartBear TestComplete."
"The interface is very basic and not user-friendly; it feels like it was stuck in 2010."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's license includes all features."
"Overall, the price is just too high; especially considering we're in the middle of a pandemic."
