Azure DevOps

What differentiates Azure DevOps from other similar products?

Within the healthcare industry, there is a huge amount of products which simply rely on Microsoft technologies from the OS to applications like explorer. Logically it makes sense to source all products from one vendor and invest into this technology stack which is what Azure DevOps benefits from. The main benefit here being that it follows the same levels of intuitiveness as other products being offered, additionally being able to make use of scripting languages like PowerShell with those already knowledgeable in this area is great.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The sheer number of plugins which are on offer and continue to be added are great, we also have the ability to work with AWS which our R&D area prefers to use.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The biggest negative would be the lack of "configuration as code" e.g YAML pipelines do result in some delays, not everything needs to have a GUI.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Great for industries which focus more on Microsoft products, great for those who have some knowledge of windows in general and other offerings e.g Azure, Intune and so on.

What differentiates Azure DevOps from other similar products?

Our programmers may work together on code projects, produce and launch apps more quickly than ever before thanks to this cloud service. Through such a cooperative application interface, the service facilitates the collaboration of programmers, program managers, and software testing professionals.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Fewer alternatives may be delivered to clients more quickly and effectively thanks to DevOps. Integrating with Visual Basic is straightforward. It has amazing UI and excellent user experience. Monitoring daily tasks, sprints design, and entire project progress using Kanban boards are all examples of managing projects. The Azure Devops Project could do many tins effectively.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Along with all the capabilities, it's easy to become confused. Preferences and security appears being all over the place, thus it's hard to find out the setting you require. Parts of the project and code both should be able to also be base lined. Whereas the created code may be identified, the historic status of the project tasks just at time of the development cannot be captured in a single point in time.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It provides a single source of information for all processes, enabling simple cooperation among technological personnel and business and product managers as well as consistency between various environments. For internal and external audits, the traceability provided by the ability to link code to user requirements is excellent.

What differentiates Azure DevOps from other similar products?

Since a few months ago, we have been using Azure DevOps, and we are happy to report that our investment was worthwhile. At our organization, this is the only tool we use to interconnect and document our initiatives. Azure test cases also help in managing our testing management, and Azure is where we save all the material used from development stage to the production stage.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

From product administration, production robotics, timekeeping, ticketing, agile, task management, to sources repository are all included and nothing seems like missing, in my opinion. Since everything is closely related, for example, establishing a new line may result in the creation of a new ticket that is immediately added to a task board. My favorite aspect of the job is also how well our employees are able to handle our extensive inventory of business.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Some of our narratives and bug reporting issues have inexplicably vanished in ADO when the Azure DevOps backend connectivity is slowing down the responsiveness. Setting up and maintaining continuous integration and deployment is also difficult.
