Overall Satisfaction with Octopus Deploy

We use Octopus Deploy as a deployment orchestration solution that allows us to easily and succinctly deploy critical corporate and scientific software in a reliable, repeatable, and automated way. it is being used by the software development team of [the] information technology services department to deliver software for the entire organization. It solves the problem of automated and reliable deployment orchestration for the organization and is an integral part of our process.
  • Simple and well thought out product
  • Feature rich
  • Excellent support and documentation
  • Reliable
  • Robust
  • In the past has been somewhat .net focused but that has been changing in recent times
  • Would be great if community licenses for NFP organizations were perpetual - but in saying that I appreciate that Octopus does provide my organization with a community [license]. Not all organisations do
  • I can’t think of any other
  • Deployment mechanics for .net and windows servers running IIS
  • Variable sets
  • Pre and post-deployment scripts
  • Channels
  • Package name patterns
  • More reliable and repeatable automated deployments, this is priceless
  • Removing the possibility of human error from the deployment process
  • Saves developers time - humans shouldn’t need to be doing repeatable tasks that a computer can do better - isn’t this the whole point of IT?
Octopus Deploy was the obvious choice at the time, its strong .net support, robustness, ease of use, and integration into an existing process was a big plus. Also, Octopus Deploy was kind enough to give my organization a not for profit community licence. In addition, the product comes from a local Brisbane based company and it is always good to support local businesses when you can.
