Easy to use tool, the UI is very intuitive and Salesforce users can easily navigate because of its intuitive UI. The independent tabs for each action (Ex: Data Sets, Deployment Status, Deployment Results etc.,) is very insightful and helpful to keep tabs on the status of a deployment or view the result of a deployment.
The dependency selection tree is one of my favourite features of the tool, it highlights all the dependencies related to an object and gives an option to easily select/unselect certain objects and fields.
The detailed problem analyzer is also helpful to debug any issues with deployments and identify what went wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish it caught issues with deployment/data sets earlier in the process i.e., before kicking off the deployment so the DevOps person deploying the changes can correct/fix them beforehand rather than waiting for the deployment to complete and then realize that something is wrong and fix them.
I also wish it had an option to select specific changes related to a record for example two developers might be making changes to the same record at the same time but they obviously don't want to override each other's work or accidentally deploy other person's changes with theirs.
I wish they had an option to roll back any failed deployments, this would be really helpful rather than partial deployments.
I also wish they had their own external ID setup within the tool that could be greatly beneficial during deploying.
Having Source Control is also really helpful to track changes historically and rollback if we need to Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I also like how Prodly is installed inside our sandbox and allows us to be the owners of our data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
