    Mainly used in release management where all deployments are well managed and processed further based on the approval system. Complete enterprise-level solution with minor difficulties which need to be added to product improvement features. Integration with other CI-CD tools makes it easier to perform tasks in terms of release and deployments.

    Database Migrations on Java-based solutions. It has one of the best integrations with it as a database migration tool, you can do it with the community edition (no pricing involved) and it works flawlessly with Maven and Gradle. It's not an expensive tool in order to use the next level of features and is worth the money. I would recommend reaching that edition level as the object mapping feature gets really handy. I would not recommend it for any Microsoft-based solution (.Net) as is not compatible at all based on my experience, this is a tool only worth it with Java applications.

    Pros
    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    • Cross-team release workflow control using email, texts, scripts allow our release management to be truly a 360 process.
    • XL Release allowing our Jenkins toolchain to control the beginning of release trains which is very powerful.
    • XL release allows us to expose the business process flow for anyone to read direct at the source which runs the process instead of a separate vision.

    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    • Pagination of data - across tool.
    • User Roles Management API can be improved.
    • Case insensitive ID's are treated differently making user face login and access issues.
    • Dependency on Universal template/custom plugins creation should be reduced.
    • Code versioning of templates is very difficult.
    • Better error handling.
    • Futures Timeout Issues.

    • Requires knowledge & studying so it's used properly
    • Lots of options that might be difficult to understand for non technical people

    Usability
    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    The tool is easy to use, easy to navigate and learn. Manages releases with proper approvals in a systematic manner. Though it needs minor improvements in terms of pagination (data loading), access management, but, overall the tool helps in increasing productivity and less time for production deployments.

    It's very easy to install and use. Even someone very new to the software will have no trouble, plus the team reach out to help you and continue to offer you support throughout. Really simple interface, clean design, all you could really ask for in a tool that needs to do a job dependably

    Support Rating
    Digital.ai (formerly XebiaLabs, CollabNet VersionOne, and Arxan)
    Support is not good at all. To this day, I have to mail my queries and their support site does not log in for me (me alone). But, upon contacting many times, no one helps with a proper response. Though good thing is, I get a proper response over mail too. But, being informative about the tool and not on the issues faced by users outside of the process to get support should also be addressed equally. Which is currently missing in support.

    XL release is simpler to configure and deploy to the organization than other change management platforms I have used. That simplicity has minor drawbacks requiring you to fit into a limited set of control methods but that exercise helped us simplify a needlessly onerous process.

    The problem with a cloud-based tool for migration services is the cloud dependency. You are restricted to use the tool along the Cloud provider. Flyway gives you the freedom to use it in any scenario as long as you are working with a compatible database engine. Even if you are working on-premise and you don't have plans to move to a cloud architecture. Or even for sandbox development scenarios where you are a developer playing around with some project ideas. And you don't have to pay anything as long as you need advanced features, and not less importantly, you are using an open-source tool.

    • I definitely think it do have positive impact to our company's database management.
    • We have 4 database environments and thus it is easy when we push the database to various environments.
