CloudBees Codeship vs. Codemagic

Codeship is very well suited to teams that have specialized devops members along with other specialized developers. It lets the other developers focus on what they do best, without having to learn another technology stack. This has cut down on a lot of headaches at our company with developers needing to deploy code to various different hosting services across different content management systems. The experience to push code is essentially the same for a developer no matter what the underlying technology is

For companies currently investing in Flutter app deployment, the CD/CI automation that Codemagic brings to the table is a game-changer. Its decision-making process needs to consider all the architecture in place and in a common scenario with other programming frameworks, the initial investments can seem high. In this sense, Flutter will reduce programming staff needs as you can attack multiple target environments and platforms easily, and at the same time the effort to get it working on app stores is now improved thanks to the focus Codemagic gave to support the FLutter community in targeting this solution to ease the process. If you invest in Flutter, you have to invest in Codemagic.

• Easy and fast deployment
• A lot of tool integrations (Slack, GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab)
• Getting tests to run is fast and easy

• Flutter Apps
• Deploy to appstores
• Build test apps
• Easy to scale up once ready
• Has extra seats and team settings, through paid options, to support the prior.

• UX: The overall UX is not bad, but it still needs a lot of improvement.
• It took me quite a while to realize that in order to switch projects I needed to press my current project name so a dropdown would appear.
• Integration with bitbucket is somewhat hidden from the users's hands. Got to make some improvements there.

• One more seat available for free accounts, for the first year or trial.
• Improved and simplified secrets management to avoid security leaks.

I have used the Slack channel without any problems, and I have gained a lot of feedback from using this tool. I have also been invited to provide reviews for the app before but in an "informal" manner, and using their own channels via Slack.

Codeship is easier to use than Jenkins because it does not require you to set up your own server, and it provides a large amount of out-of-the-box integrations for version control systems and cloud environments. AWS CodePipeline is native to AWS and cannot deploy applications reliably to other cloud environments such as GCP or Azure.

The steps to get Codemagic up and running are nothing compared to implementing a Jira solution and after using the CI/CD options it has enabled. For larger organizations that already have Jira, you might gain in the long run from features like automatic issue tracking and focused CI to remediate and test the apps. But if you are looking for true AGILE development, where you have teams that focus on value and need the CD process done easily, then Codemagic is a much better solution for emerging projects and companies to start.

• We have a few small projects with different developers and Codeship shows everyone clearly, if something work, or if it doesn't.
• In one small project with a team of three developers, we have configured two builds and it takes 2-5 minutes for everyone on the team to push changes to an infrastructure handling a little over 3M users.

• Reduce steps and time to deploy flutter apps
• Cost of build
• Invest in other areas of the architectural process to enhance the products built.
