Azure DevOps Services vs. IBM Cloud Continuous Delivery

ADO is well suited for the visibility of day-to-day tasks and responsibilities as well as things such as Features, user stories, etc. Off the top of my head, I can't think of any scenario where it might not be well suited, as you can customize ADO to your liking to a degree.

It provides a cloud-based integrated development environment that integrates with other IBM Cloud services to provide a streamlined development workflow. This includes real-time collaboration and code sharing capabilities, making it easy for teams to work together on projects. This feature is very useful for our app to maintain the code

• Flexible Requirements Hierarchy Management: AZDO makes it easy to track items such as features or epics as a flat list, or as a hierarchy in which you can track the parent-child relationship.
• Fast Data Entry: AZDO was designed to facilitate quick data entry to capture work items quickly, while still enabling detailed capture of acceptance criteria and item properties.
• Excel Integration: AZDO stands out for its integration with MS Excel, which enables quick updates for bulk items.

• It contains the deployment templates which are much more time saving and is of great use.
• This has the integration of the Cloud applications which makes the work much more convenient.
• This is flexible when it comes to development, deployment, and delivery.
• [It] also has a much more reasonable pricing.
• Provides space for the data storage.
• [IBM Cloud Developer Tools] also can support many useful tools.

• Column sorting when in filtered states.
• A way to show cross-team dependencies.
• A customized "From" field for notifications. Sometimes when a mail comes from Azure DevOps the teams do not realize that I am sending it
• A way to do online poker that doesn't require a plug-in.

• Its price is quite high and this made it unsuitable for us as we cannot afford such high rates.
• Its Setup takes much longer time and this is frustrating.
• Its interface needs to be improved and easy even for the Newbies.

I don't think our organization will stray from using VSTS/TFS as we are now looking to upgrade to the 2012 version. Since our business is software development and we want to meet the requirements of CMMI to deliver consistent and high quality software, this SDLC management tool is here to stay. In addition, our company uses a lot of Microsoft products, such as Office 365, Asp.net, etc, and since VSTS/TFS has proved itself invaluable to our own processes and is within the Microsoft family of products, we will continue to use VSTS/TFS for a long, long time.

It's a great platform to develop, run, test and deploy the applications easily. And it makes very easier and secure the implementation of continuous delivery process. For first time and experts also can use this service so easily. Great service provided by the IBM Cloud Continuous Service. There are more services that helps a lot to work on it. Thanks a lot.

Azure DevOps is a powerful, complex cloud application. As such there are a number of things it does great and something where there is room for improvement. One of those areas would be in usability. In my opinion it relies too much on search. There is no easy way to view all projects or to group them in a logical way. You need to search for everything.

Nothing special to say : the UX is clear and simple.

When we've had issues, both Microsoft support and the user community have been very responsive. DevOps has an active developer community and frankly, you can find most of your questions already asked and answered there. Microsoft also does a better job than most software vendors I've worked with creating detailed and frequently updated documentation.

In more than a year using the IBM Cloud Continuous Delivery tool, I haven't had any major complaints or problems. However, in the last month, IBM suffered from a couple of problems through several of its services, and for a short period of time, I couldn't deploy successfully my projects. The problem was brief and was quickly fixed.

Microsoft Planner is used by project managers and IT service managers across our organization for task tracking and running their team meetings. Azure DevOps works better than Planner for software development teams but might possibly be too complex for non-software teams or more business-focused projects. We also use ServiceNow for IT service management and this tool provides better analysis and tracking of IT incidents, as Azure DevOps is more suited to development and project work for dev teams.

We chose IBM Cloud Developer Tools for multiple reasons. Cost, current infrastructure vendor list, and Cloud Operations team experience were key driving factors for us. Palo Alto's Prisma Cloud product was slick for sure but we found it more difficult to deploy and integrate with our current environment and applications

• It provides a great IDE to make things easier, clear, and compact. It has always been a positive ROI
• It's worth the money. I don't think any other software could replace the VS. It has helped us a lot to making things ready on time
• The only thing I dislike is that it takes a lot of memory space when in an idle state

Incentivized

• This has made the configuration files much easier to access.
• Has made the commands more logical as well as easy for use and learning.
• Contains great AI capabilities
• The documentation needs improvement.
• Error received from commands are pretty hard to understand.
