What do you like best about AWS CodeBuild?

I really like how i can set another EC2 to compile lanes of code while i am working on other thing, that saves so much time, another good thing about AWS CodeBuild is how it is integrated with other tools, i don't have to configure anything, just need use the tools, and focus on improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS CodeBuild?

The control version can be confusing, even the panel, but there are guides to help to understand it. The price of use can be a bit high if you use it everyday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AWS CodeBuild:

Use it wise or you will spend a lot money, if you need a non-integrated enviroment follow a guide to configure it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS CodeBuild solving and how is that benefiting you?

With AWS CodeBuild i can do more than one project or module at the same time, while i am working on one, another is compiling, i can set triggers to pull code from the repository once it is acepted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS CodeBuild?

Writing CodeBuild scripts in a YAML format is fairly straightforward as long as you're working in a fairly basic sense. Not having to stand up a server for builds is awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS CodeBuild?

Complicated build tasks are harder to get right and start correctly. Also, the documentation pieces feel fragmented; steps are separate from what is allowed in each step, and the overall experience feels poor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS CodeBuild solving and how is that benefiting you?

I primarily use CodeBuild as a way to lint and validate CloudFormation templates before running them through. Being able to write a CodePipeline containing CodeBuild running CloudFormation without standing up any server has significantly saved time on maintenance and "unneccessary" work.

What do you like best about AWS CodeBuild?

I like this tool because it helps me with the overhead of overall configuration.I like how i can set another EC2 to compile lanes of code while i am working on other thing. That reduces the time for me. I like how well it is configured with everything on AWS platform so I don't need to worry about configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS CodeBuild?

Sometimes it fails to work the way I want it to work. There are some thins that I wish I could customize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would say that it's definitely heading into the right direction. More configuration options would be appreciated. Support of other platforms and ability to integrate with other tools would work just great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Building applications fast without spending time to configure resources and finding enough time to set up the environment, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS CodeBuild?

I have found almost nothing Jenkins can do that CodeBuild cannot. In fact I find it easier to use overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS CodeBuild?

Teaching the developers how to write the yml can take a bit of time, but in the end I think they like how it puts the power in their hands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering AWS CodeBuild:

Try it and compare it to your current system. If you are deploying to AWS the security of having everything in AWS cannot be matched. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS CodeBuild solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cost savings by only spending money when we are building. Also having the build functionality within the code helps maintain that aspect of the build. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about AWS CodeBuild?

I like that it can be integrated to maby work environments, for exemple Github. You're only charged for the services you use, so that's also a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS CodeBuild?

The interface is... Quite difficult to use. I've rarely seen such poor UX design. It does the job, but it feels very unsmooth and hard to use and to get used to throughout the project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is AWS CodeBuild solving and how is that benefiting you?

For a hackathon we thought of integrating AWS in our project for extra points. It was more work than expected, but it did work in the end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
