Buddy vs. Oracle Java Cloud

Springloops is the best tool for deployment to any environment. Especially, the auto-deployment feature on development servers is essential for the early stages of development. The built-in source control mechanisms are a perfect combination of ease of use and a rich feature set that allows the development team to have an easier and more complete view of each part of the project. A section that is lacking is time tracking - but then this is not the main usage of the service.

Oracle Java Cloud is especially appropriate for moderate to complex Java applications. Due to BYOL licensing, it is also works well when you are planning to do dev and test in-house and then deploy it on Oracle Java Cloud. It is not well suited for simple Java applications due to the cost of Oracle Java Cloud. Simple applications don't need the fully managed aspect of Oracle Java Cloud.

• Easy of use - clear user interface
• Fast deployment to all environments
• Great combination of source control and project management

Incentivized

• Integration with development tools
• Auto scale
• Enhanced security

• We would love to have a more flexible management for resources (users, storage)
• More advanced web hooks would be a plus

Incentivized

• Pricing can certainly be improved as the cost adds up for dev/test environments using the Oracle Java Cloud platform.
• It is hard to customize Oracle Java Cloud for complex Java applications requiring high bandwidth memory and network requirements.

Apart from being a great versioning control system Springloops offers the options to automatically deploy code to multiple systems. This feature alone is a determining factor to renew Springloops over and over again. Another important factor is that it offers a full set of tools that help the team during the development cycle. No switching between time-tracking to project management. This is a real time-saver.

Easy to use, automatic deployments, comments on projects are only a few factors. Multiple servers per project is another must-have feature. User permissions and rights offer granular control on access to the system

I rarely use it but when I need it the team is there. During the initial steps of Springloops, I had close contact with one of the founders. He provided support to me over Skype! He didn't have to but he did. We had a couple of long talks about some issues I was facing. He has there regardless of time. It was a great experience

Springloops has a built-in feature that is lacking from Bitbucket (at least on the out-of-the-box functionality). Deployment of projects to various servers/development stages. The process is so easy and painless that even remote servers can act as local environments. This is a feature that differentiates Springloops from other solutions that require other tools to perform the same task.

We selected Oracle Java Cloud for its native integration with other Oracle solutions and its focus on Java applications. Overall, our experience with Oracle Java Cloud has been positive, as it has improved our efficiency, security, and scalability in developing cloud applications.

• A total time saver - just commit changes and Springloops can handle the deployments
• Total control of source code and commits - you never have to think about those things again

• Positive impact on ROI by reducing the time to deploy Java applications in the cloud.
• Positive impact on business objectives by reducing the CapEx needed to hire staff to deploy and then later maintain the Java instances.
