Bamboo won solely based on the fact we were "all-in" with Atlassian. TeamCity is now in the process of taking over as we transition off of Bamboo, and I think TeamCity stacks up nice against Bamboo thus far (too soon to tell).
Bitbucket provides a better price compared to the others as well as private repositories for people who do not want everything they do to be completely public and accessible for all to see.
