CloudBees CI is to use for any sort of automation for build and deployments
What do you like best about the product?
Very useful when using with multi branch pipelines. Easy to connect agents and adding separate Jenkins nodes for different products when we have more load. We can easily connect the other tools like bitbucket , Harness, artifactory and Jira to have easy automation. Blue ocean UI is very much recommended by our developers and testing team to have more visibility in the logs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult UI to use while configuring the jobs. And Global config takes very long time to load.Deployments are a bit difficult to configure . Windows connectivity to Amazon AWS agents is having lot of bugs. Sometimes we experience lot of problems with number of plugins and it is difficult to identify which plugin is causing the problems.Lot of times we endup in uninstalling the plugin which are old or deprecated. Only few of them are supported by Cloudbees support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use CloudBees CI for our daily builds and deployments. And also use CloudBees CI for self service jobs which help to increase the developer productivity. We use for our CI for almost all the products and Test Automation and also for mobile device testing.
We are also solving all the automation required for the QA teams and Dev Ops teams and also UI teams for day to day automations.

Good product to automate everything
What do you like best about the product?
Lots of plugin and open source version too
What do you dislike about the product?
Interface is outdated and slow sometimes
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We automated all our build and releases globally
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to not just add plugins you need to understand what you are doing first
Cloudbees CI has good plugin support and configurability.
What do you like best about the product?
Most 3rd party tools are supported usually via a plugin. Documentation on cloudbees is really good.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's sometimes hard to diagnose build failures. We see often see networking problems when agent disconnections. It's hard to manage large number of plugin versions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's good for creating automation and building source code and pushing to repositories.
An easy CI to learn and implement complex networks of builds
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to add multiple plugins that make room for so many use-cases. Most importantly the Pipeline plugin with shared libraries makes builds configuration management quite manageable. With a mix of declarative and scripted pipeline, we can create some really complex pipelines that make use of several other plugins and still be able to manage them, source control them and share with ease. The ability to add custom plugins is great to be able to cater some personalized solutions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI lacks visual appeal, and editing pipeline configurations from the UI is still not easy and even possible in some cases. Blue Ocean is a nice visualization of the pipeline but it lacks many custom features and is not as easy to use as projected. Multiple pipeline builds running on the server makes memory management bit of an issue. Not many customization options for user profile. Needs to be updated for modern color scheme and design.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing multiple build configurations using the Pipeline plugin, the benefit of Pipelines coupled with shared libraries is immense. The multi-branch pipeline plugin allows us to create multiple jobs for different branches with a click. Combined use of declarative and scripted pipeline helps us share build configurations easily with only as much information needed to be shared. Shared libraries are really powerful to use in almost all of our pipelines due to the fact that they are so lightweight.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It can really scale for multiple projects and the use of Pipeline suite of plugins makes it very manageable and shareable with others that can review the configuration changes and also run unit tests on them. The option to add nodes and remove nodes easily without having to license any on majority of the OSes out there is a huge plus.
Easy and Reliable CI tool

They need to upgrade application's User Interface
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

CloudBees fixes all the things you hate about Jenkins
What do you like best about the product?
Plugins are the best and worst part of Jenkins. They are the real power of customizing your pipeline but with weekly updates and different schedule they keep breaking.
CloudBees fixes that issue by bundling up all plugin update quarterly and testing them. This remove all the complexity and downtime of keeping Jenkins up to date.

What do you dislike about the product?
I wish CloudBees would have a full SAAS solution. It requires that you deploy it to your own cloud environment which still take some unneeded complexity and maintenance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Week long updates and fixes are now minutes.
Setup cloudbees CI on Openshift cluster
What do you like best about the product?
I have deployed Cloudbees CI on openshift and it provides lots of facility to create your own managed master and manage them in operation center.This is very user friendly with enrich capability of CI-CD
What do you dislike about the product?
i am not sure for dislike at this moment
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves the CI/CD implementation of application development process.
Good product and support
What do you like best about the product?
Some of the CloudBees Jenkins plugins provide some really useful functionality.
What do you dislike about the product?
There appears to be a few bugs here and there in the CloudBees proprietary plugins that occasionally causes crashes. I dislike the fact that I don't know what's going on under the hood when these bugs happen so I need to open a support ticket and wait instead of being able to check what went wrong myself. We periodically have agent disconnection problems too and are unable to resolve these.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using CloudBees CI as a orchestration tool for our CI processes as well as as a tool for automating common engineering processes. We've made a lot of improvements in the way we build and deliver software since we switched from Jenkins, being able to build and ship code much faster and in a much more robust way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CloudBees CI offers great support and added functionality on top of the open sourced Jenkins. The pricing and lack of visibility into the proprietary components are a downside though, so be sure to review the added functionality to determine if it is worth the cost.

CloudBees CI in my work
What do you like best about the product?
Excellent support, accurate results, effective results, I recommend using Jenkins for the automation. Your support in this area is really clear and very useful to understand problems. Cloudbee Jenkins is widely used for automation on DevOps platform.

Several of the internal workflows needed to calibrate and the migration was not easy because some teams worked with spinners. But I don't think there are bees missing, I think it may be simpler.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are moving to DevOps in the company, which will allow us to easily manage the Jenkins Assistant, so that developers can adapt workflows to their own needs without affecting others.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend using it, at least experimenting with it, because it' s easy to implement.
