Read full review As a team we need to push code into the repo on daily basis, Bitbucket has proven that is a reliable and secure server to save and get the code available in no time. The administration part is really easy and there's an extra tool for every developer profile either if you want to use the console or a GUI like
Sourcetree .
Read full review Pros Gantt chart Github support Read full review Very easy to integrate with other DevOps tools like Jenkins and with project/workflow management tools like JIRA. Very efficient in managing security and compliance standards for code, especially during pull requests, merge requests, branching, etc. Very robust in performance, especially the cloud and datacenter versions hardly hit any performance issues and supports more than 2000+ developers in my company. Read full review Cons The biggest drawback that I want Backlog to fix as soon as possible is that is does not provide any place to explain the problem or bug virtually. There is a need for a tab or space to attach screenshot or video to easily explain the bug or problem in the project. Read full review The code management UI is a bit rough around the edges and difficult to work with. BitBucket does not have the same simplified PR management tools as other competitors. It's not as easy to integrate 3rd party apps as other competitors. Read full review Likelihood to Renew All products have room for improvement. The system improves over time with better and better integrations and I look forward to even more features without paying extra! The system has increased transparency across my organization and with this transparency comes increased throughput on projects. I don't think I can go back to any other system and we are definitely married to this product.

Read full review The customer support provided by
Atlassian (Bitbucket's parent company that also makes
Jira ,
Confluence , etc.) is very helpful. They seem to be very concerned about any issues reported with their products and even just questions about functionality. They are constantly improving the products with new features in nearly every release. Plus they have a plethora of online documentation to reference.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Backlog has all of the top-notch features to increase productivity, visibility, and project tracking. Backlog is easy to use. I first just logged in to the platform and it was [ready] to go. I easily started working on it and it started giving me the bugs’ details on our project. Always available for queries. Listen to the queries very attentively and try to give a solution on the go if applicable. Otherwise, take some time and respond with the advanced workable solution in the limited time frame.
Read full review For the features we were looking at, Bitbucket,
GitHub and
GitLab were all at par and were in a similar price range. We found that
GitHub was the most full featured should we need to scale very quickly.
GitLab was at par with
GitHub for our future needs, but
GitHub was a more familiar tool compared to
GitLab . Bitbucket won out because of its close integration with
Jira and being in the
Atlassian family. It was also cheaper than
GitHub . As we started with
Jira , Bitbucket addition became a natural next step for us. We really liked Bitbucket and stayed with it but we do know we have great options in the form of
GitHub and
GitLab should we need to scale fast.
