Products used within Microsoft Azure DevOps: Microsoft Visual Studio App Center, Azure Boards, Azure Pipelines
What do you like best about Microsoft Azure DevOps?

It is a one stop solution for code repository, CI/CD pipelines, Project tracking, project management like jira and also wiki for documents.

It is very easy to use even for non-coders as it gives you no-code platform to create CI/CD pipelines which is helpful. I use azure devops daily in my project. i have used almost all the features of azure devops. The best thing about azure devops is its flexibility in azure pipelines where you can create CI/CD pipelines in any agent you create with no-code and is you have coding knowledge then you can write your own code too in yaml. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure DevOps?

Nothing much to dislike as I am using it daily. But one thing is administrative services they can improve. Also, while private network connection setup is bit tricky in azure devops. And the cross-platform support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft Azure DevOps solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am a daily user of azure devops in my project. So,.in our project we are using it mainly for code repository, azure pipelines for deployment and azure boards for tracking and project management. Also, we are using wiki for our central document repository. It is very easy to use and configure. Like if I talk about azure pipelines which is used for CI/CD deployments, even if I don't have knowledge of how DevOps pipeline for an app deployment is setup, but then also I am able to create a azure pipeline for my client for app deployment to different environment, just by configuration as per instructions, no need of coding. Whereas this doesn't happens in other tools like jenkins.

The main benefit which I really like is this azure devops comes under the same subscription of azure and its of very minimal cost, now that gives us leisure to use all azure services without buying any third party tool for any other uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Microsoft Azure DevOps?

Being an APM member and Agile practitioner, I have been using Auzre DevOps for more than 5 years, it has transformed the way I and my team delivered initiatives of the Products as well as projects. Its seamless integration with source code management, CICD, etc. I have used Azure Develops majorly for Agile Project Management as well as CICD.

Agile Project Management - I liked the Kanban Board customization, Notifications features then trigger when a work item is changed to a state, its customization is tremendous. Kanban board styles and rules application help the team be on track with the work items that need to be delivered on time and within budget.

CICD: This is tremendous and helped my team push their code on the fly and reduce tech debts.

Analytics - This amazing feature helps generate Power BI reports and provides great insights into the scrum/kanban team's work and progress.

There is much more that I can give you about Azure DevOps which I love using in and out daily. This is a thank you note to Microsoft for building such a wonderful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Azure DevOps?

Everything about Azure DevOps, I like however I still feel that they would have given something in in-column edits (or inline edits) for the work items instead of opening the work items for editing the title. If the retrospective can be much more interactive it would help us. (its a marketplace app) hope Mircorosft comes up with a few more Apps for these features in their market place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microsoft Azure DevOps solving and how is that benefiting you?

Setting up Scrum Teams as well as Kanban Teams for my organization, we have used Azure DevOps and its analytics for generating reports and metrics for leadership in the organization that helped. We have set up various templates that helped teams standardize the process the way PO/ PM use to write the stories, Features, etc. We had used Product structure for one of my Kanban team which helped them to scale up to maturity level 4 from 0.
