Overall Satisfaction with Azure DevOps Server (formerly Team Foundation Server)
Azure DevOps server is being utilized as a centralized tool for our organization's code & release management. All departments in the organization have their own repositories where they check-in their codes. Azure DevOps server along with GIT integration is serving as a central code repository for our organization. Also its widget integration and inbuilt templates to automate code build and release from almost any tech stack is worthy to have it as a DevOps tool.
- Vast range of Template for Automated Build and Release Pipeline with option to have conditional triggers
- Code repository mechanism is aligned with GIT which is a well known public repository system
- Bug Management is also an integral feature of this tool
- Dashboard creation option of Build and Release pipeline is also available
- Can add more build templates for specific technology requirements
- Can have more features in dashboards which can help dev teams stream line their tasks and priorities
- Can have raise alarm feature in case of any sort of failure in devops pipeline execution
- Helped to achieve better code management
- Helped to get rid of a separate bug management tool
- Helped to build the devops pipeline within it hence removing need for separate devops tool
Azure DevOps server has quite an upper hand while we compare it with other tools in the market. Its not just a tool in fact its been a complete suit. If we look out at other products available as alternative options to Azure DevOps Server, they are meant for a specific purpose and hence always need to be integrated with some other tool for achieving the target. While Azure DevOps integrates within itself all features and utilities required to deliver the code from developer machine to the production environment.
