Great ecosystem and cross platform solution

What are the best aspects of this product?

Jenkins is great CI/CD solution, it offers plugins for everything and they are not difficult to create. I like that it supports Windows, Mac and Linux and this means that all build configurations are consistent and reports are available directly from dashboards. Also, there is commercial support from CloudBees and other companies. It doesn’t require databases and the upgrades are straightforward. You can use its plugins to manage slave machines and you can even manage system-level tools.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

Jenkins looks bit out dated and I don’t really like its design. Also, the build configurations are kept separate from version control.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

It helps us to build software projects and to run periodic tasks by using Java, NodeJS and batch scripts. Also, it helps us to improve manageability for building agents.

Are you a current user of this product?
