Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros The UI is super user friendly, to setup projects is super easy, after we did some POCs, we decide migrated existed projects from Jenkins to BuddyCI immediately. 1. Makes deployment a breeze. 2. One-time setup and now as soon as the PR merges into develop or master it auto deploys. Easy deployment and easy tracking, for every deployment release. has been a true game-changer for us ever since the integration. Easy to use GUI with tonnes of options. The pipelines are very easy to maintain with Buddy. Easy integration with GitHub. Huge amount of customization possible. The solution we came from was very simple and we outgrew it's capabilities, with Buddy it does not seem possible. It supports a huge library of functionality that made our deployment setup a breeze. Great support, always answers quickly and actually contacts their developers for clarification if tech support is unable to answer your question. Cons If there are more tutorials or how-to articles on the site would be super helpful. To my knowledge so far, I could not find a way to see what is the pass/failure rate for all pipelines/projects, the reporting is not very helpful by just displaying runtime. 1. I haven't seen any major issues so far, therefore, no cons for now. Nothing to complain about so far. I can’t pinpoint any drawbacks. So far I have yet to run into any issues using this product. A small learning curve coming from simpler tools, however it is not overwhelming.
