Overall Satisfaction with Bitbucket

This is a great replacement for SVN. You can save all your codes or necessary documents on the network rather than saving them locally on a computer. This not only lets everybody in your company use your codes, but it also prevents it from getting lost due to computer breakdown, theft, etc.
  • Saving codes on a server.
  • Easy to use.
  • Don't necessarily have to use terminal to do Git operations.
  • It can make it more user-friendly so that first-time users find it easy to work with.
  • It is costly.
  • Setup is a bit tricky.
  • The entire company's codebase is located in one place.
  • Don't have to wait for someone to forward you their codes, etc.
  • Great as a backup.
I think Gitlab and Bitbucket are very similar. I am very familiar with git commands so its easy for me to use both. But I would still prefer Gitlab since it has few additional features like send merge request, approvers etc.
I like it but it can be more easy and user-friendly. It should have a few more additional features.

Do you think Bitbucket delivers good value for the price?

Yes

No

Did Bitbucket live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Bitbucket go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Bitbucket again?

No

It is really good if you are familiar with Git commands, etc. But for first-time users you do have to take extra efforts to help them understand. Or use software like Sourcetree to ease the process and not have to use terminal.
