Digital.ai Deploy Reviews & Product Details

It is very user-friendly.

The products has the capability to display deployment analytics and generate reports that enable users to improve on their systems.

It is quite secure.

Easy and fast deployments with ability to set self-service deployments.

Supports latest cloud technologies as well as containers.

In the case of errors there are automated rollbacks to keep your system up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The demo is not enough, I would suggest a full documentation for one to seamlessly operate the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no positive element to this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Learning curve for some complex issues is insane. Documentation is a nightmare.

When you think you can use it as Infrastructure as code, dream on. It only does some deployment, no configuration management. What a Devops engineer wants is tooling that manages the integrity of the deployment. Something XLDeploy isn't managing at all.

It is an additional tool to manage that absorbs a huge amount of time that could have been better spent to REAL Devops tooling.

Way too expensive considering the license costs against what XLdeploy should solve for customers, and the reality is that it is not able to solve what is promises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its customization options are good and it allows you to deploy several environments at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It says that it is used to speed up deployment while greatly reducing error but it was quite difficult to set up, i might as well use another platform with the same amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What's most helpful about XL Deploy is being able to see a structured and organized layout of what our applications are, and what versions of those applications are in certain environments. I also like the ability to configure different values for dictionary keys, both in plain text and encrypted, for including in properties files for deploys to different environments.

One of the downsides I've noticed in XL Deploy is a lack of an automatic refresh feature of displaying the most current versions of applications, environments and infrastructures available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Possibility to have many configurations, per dev environment for example and being able to update and redeploy quiet easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not being able to simply and smoothly have a dictionary per application package. And the integration with Jenkins although it works fine, passing params is sometimes unintuitive.

One other thing is that the UI is sometimes sluggish, especially when editing dictionary values. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In real time , every web application will be configured on multiple servers , XL deploy make easy to deploy in all the severs at a time.

Generally as per business requirements source code is visible to all the users but secured information like password and configuration details will be stored in property files.

XL deploy will provide easy way to deploy on single server as well as multiple servers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

XL deploy is looking as legacy user interface(UI)

It is more convienant if XL deploy provide help document. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration with existing tech stack and complete infra as code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ordering of DAR being applied can’t be determined by the plugins...

It makes work a bit surprising some times Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can customize the tool as per your need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Documentation is not great. Ambiguous information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

XL Deploy does several things right. A great example is the uploadable zip archive that may have the full app executable, configurations, database content etc... Can use environment specific parameters by using placeholders, fills them up from a key-value table. Has plugin support, mainly for java and .net, deploy scripts are standardized. Can deploy to several environments at a time, say test, development, production.It keeps a detailed version history, including the database, key-value tables. The ability to rollback to an earlier version with just a few clicks is just awesome. The dashboard is pretty good too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A few problems that still linger are with the custom dependencies. We sometimes got a buggy deps that crashed the build, Also, the dashboard will not always report information reliably. It might show build successful but upon opening detailed status we got to see stack error when the deployment did not work. Some stability issues with plugins need to be solved. All things considered, only the dashboard is the mission critical problem that we have faced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With XL Deploy, we can easily repeat complex deployments to vastly different web container without much Hassle. The plugin system augments XL Deploy and covers most of today's requirements, extensibility is always a big plus. Detailed status about every stage in the pipeline helps iron out any issues. Can use packages built with TFS for automatic deployments. Can create a scratch project with simple pipeline. Supports maven. Some of these are great features, some we can live without but we are using it all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial setup is not as streamlined as I would like. Documentation is hard to process. The GUI is a mess, requiring proprietary software to view in a browser. More complex pipelines can not be visualized as easily. Plugin backward compatibility is something I would like rather than fast pace updates that has a specific dependency. Can not replicate actual command line. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
