    The software is easy to use and share within our team. Licensing and setup is straightforward. The product just works and we love it.

    Previously, our team used Jenkins. However, since it's a shared deployment resource we don't have admin access. We tried GoCD as it's open source and we really like. We set up our deployment pipeline to run whenever codes are merged to master, run the unit test and revert back if it doesn't pass. Once it's deployed to the staging environment, we can simply do 1-click to deploy the appropriate version to production. We use this to deploy to an on-prem server and also AWS. Some deployment pipelines use custom Powershell script for.Net application, some others use Bash script to execute the docker push and cloud formation template to build elastic beanstalk.

    • Pipeline-as-Code works really well. All our pipelines are defined in yml files, which are checked into SCM.
    • The ability to link multiple pipelines together is really cool. Later pipelines can declare a dependency to pick up the build artifacts of earlier ones.
    • Agents definition is really great. We can define multiple different kinds of environments to best suit our diverse build systems.

    Cons
    GitKraken (formerly Axosoft)
    • Timing Out - when editing a story or bug, occasionally Axosoft will time out and all changes will be lost
    • Viewing past sprints can be hard to locate
    • Multiple users within a Story - Axosoft could do a better job managing multiple users on the same story
    • User Interface isn't entirely user friendly and looks a bit outdated

    Usability
    GitKraken (formerly Axosoft)
    Over the years, I have used many Git tools, but GitKraken stands out. It's now my favorite Git tool by far—excellent graphical overview of the branches, straightforward usage of all functionality, and lots of integration available. Currently, I am using GitKraken to connect to the ADO and quickly create PRs, using gitflow and tracking the work of my team mates.

    I actually like JIRA better, to me the UI is a lot cleaner. Easier to use, and search tickets.

    GoCD is easier to setup, but harder to customize at runtime. There's no way to trigger a pipeline with custom parameters.
    Jenkins is more flexible at runtime. You can define multiple user-provided parameters so when user needs to trigger a build, there's a form for him/her to input the parameters.

    • ROI has been good since it's open source
    • Settings.xml need to be backed up periodically. It contains all the settings for your pipelines! We accidentally deleted before and we have to restore and re-create several missing pipelines
    • More straight forward use of API and allows filtering e.g., pull all pipelines triggered after this date
