Codefresh review
What do you like best about the product?
Codefresh seems like a good offer for those new to DevOps. I do like the UI and marketing.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems to be more of a sandbox and enabler for software teams. You still have to do a lot of the work with building and managing pipelines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Codefresh is tackling the GitOps platform offerings and has the ArgoCD benefits out of the box.

My favorite CI/CD pipeline
What do you like best about the product?
You can do whatever you need to support your business's release process. Multiple pipelines with shared environmental variables. as well as the ability to make calls to 3rd party services, such as Terraform, as a step in the pipeline is awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
A little bit of a learning curve, but the same as any CI/CD. It would be nice to be able to store the docker images within codefresh. Monitoring and alerting would be a nice to have. Things like the k8 cluster being down or something.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
continuous and easy releases. It builds our code, runs some unit tests, deploys to a k8 cluster, then triggers assertible to run a series of tests which are different for production and staging environments.
Codefresh for a Small tech company
What do you like best about the product?
All the integrations are really easy to do, at the moment I'm the only one working on Codefresh and it was not hard at all to implement everything by myselfc everything is well documented.
What do you dislike about the product?
Terraform provider is a little outdated, that's my only point, I can't create everything I want using terraform itself, I think codefresh should invest a little bit of time working on that one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Basically we needed to do CI/CD pipelines from scratch and fast and Codefresh really solved all our issues with that, now we feel more productive and the deployments increased dramatically
Good experience
What do you like best about the product?
UI is very simple and informative. integration to cloud is also simple
What do you dislike about the product?
I am pretty happy with the service compared to the alternatives
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continous integration and deployment is simplified.
Yes it is financially beneficial ,
Yes, its productive.

Impressive Codefresh
What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity and usability. It is easy to use. Easy to integrate with the Cloud services like AWS or Azure. The turnaround on the tech support questions or issues is quick.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. The error handling is not the best.
2. It requires extra steps to adapt to our development process.
2. It requires extra steps to adapt to our development process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for continuous integration and continuous delivery of our product. The Codefresh pipelines run simultaneously on a commit, so the team does not wait until an agent on a build computer to free up.

If you tried it, it would be best.
Promising, container based CI/CD provider with many built-in templates
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it is container-based, easy to use 3rd party and internal container registries. The YAML format for pipeline specification is also something that should come naturally to any DevOps person. I have found the documentation to be excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have run into some stability issues with CodeFresh. I could not start my pipeline (containers were not getting started up). I had to contact customer support during my evaluation to put me into a different tier to see my containers running. It set me back by a day on my work that I did not expect. I would check on SLA before signing up for a full service.
It is somewhat confusing how you can sidecar some services.
There are no examples on how you could leverage 3rd party cloud services to reach apps deployed within the pipeline.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I demoed setting up end-to-end testing for API tests.
Positive CI/CD experience
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of the pipeline configurations.
What do you dislike about the product?
Caching doesn't always work as expected. Some pipeline images have issues refreshing env vars.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing and preview environments for microservices. Deployments to production.
Codefresh has made it easy to deploy our app using Kubernetes
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Codefresh is so flexible and able to do whatever I need it to.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is pretty nice to use, but there a few options that could be a little easier to find/use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Codefresh helps us to not only deploy to a Kubernetes cluster, but to automate it with great visibility into the deployment process.
A unique first class support for Kubernetes
What do you like best about the product?
The Kubernetes first-class integration makes it easier to adopt a "per branch" continuous delivery deployment. This powerful feature can be leveraged together with the templating features and pipeline variables to really standardize and simplify CI/CD across an organisation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although it is possible to create triggers for the pipelines from the UI, triggers are a relevant part of CI/CD pipelines configuration and they should be defined as code and versioned as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our goal was to have full CI/CD pipelines which integrates easily with several Kubernetes cluster, as well as the possibility of run automated tests in a docker-compose like setup. Thanks to Codefresh, our testing strategy has become more flexible: we didn't have anymore to mock all external services, such as databases or message brokers, for testing purposes, but we could selectively decide which ones to mock and which ones to run in a docker-compose during pipeline execution
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a Kubernetes-first platform to build your CI/CD strategy, Codefresh is a great tool, especially if you are looking to adopt GitOps methodology. If you are not embracing microservices and Kubernetes, you might opt for a different CI/CD tool with a different or a more general focus: although Codefresh is flexible and can be used for most CI/CD pipelines use cases, their focus is clearly on K8 and microservices and I expect them to always prioritize features on their roadmap that are mostly useful for developers that use these technologies and architectural approaches.
Best CI/CD Platform on the market - if you're using kubernetes, use codefresh
What do you like best about the product?
Codefresh pipelines make sense. The YAML configuration and project/pipeline layout are very intuitive, and their documentation is overall pretty great. The pricing model is simple and upfront.
Pipelines and steps are very customizable, and running them with conditionals or parallel makes them super customizable. The web interface is excellent for writing proof of concept pipelines and testing them; then, you can commit them to a repo and tie the source to a branch to have it sourced from your repo.
Secrets management is a breeze, and being able to pass in different shared configurations based on what git triggers fire is beneficial in creating simple pipelines.
Connecting to k8s is well documented, and I quickly added the necessary configuration into my terraform code to have it be part of my infrastructure as code. Having the configuration profiles available at all steps is very convienent.
Their sales and support teams are great and very responsive to feedback and concerns.

What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much to not like about codefresh - the worst for me is that there are a few minor UI bugs that constantly reoccur that you must know about, or else it will cause you headaches with unexpected outcomes.
Caching is excellent in that it is handled for you automatically. Still, it can sometimes be bad as running multiple instances of the same pipeline can result in the new runs not using the cached resources.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Codefresh provided us a platform to test and deploy our code to a kubernetes cluster without having to spend a lot of time figuring out how to connect CI/CD to a kubernetes cluster. We now have more reliable deployments since deployments use predefined pipeline code instead of from a laptop with a different configuration.
