Bitbucket - A reliable and easy solution for managing your code
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Be it the case where your company has just been founded and there are only one or two engineers, or it has matured into a big organization with huge teams; at both the stages you need to maintain your code base properly. For us, Bitbucket has been the sole code hosting and collaboration tool from the beginning of our organization. For all our projects, we trust Bitbucket.
Pros
- The best code hosting & collaboration tool
- Very good integration with task management systems such as Jira
- Provides easy and effective CI/CD
- Code review is amazing on Bitbucket
Cons
- Seeing the older commits. If we want to track a specific piece of code in a file by visiting some of the older commits from dropdown, then currently if we select on any commit, the dropdown resets; thus losing track of commit that was selected.
- The dashboard where the pull requests of all the projects are shown could be improved by adding more filters. Currently there are limited options and requires us to travel to that specific repository if we want to apply any filter.
Most Important Features
- Repository management
- Pull request reviews
- Build Automation
- Integration with Slack
Return on Investment
- As an agritech company, our main offering depends on the software. Bitbucket has direct positive impact on our offering.
