Free tier(Build minutes: 50 mins/mo) Thanks but no thank you, meanwhile GitLab offers 2000 mins/mo

This is surprisingly low given what's out there. For comparison: - Azure pipelines offers 1,800 minutes a month - Google Cloud Build offers 120 minutes a day - CircleCI offers 1000 minutes a month Weird that they wouldn't even try to compete with these.

I think the main reason they don't try is for Atlassian the enterprise market is the most important market. How many enterprises really care about the free tier?

Also aren't free tier customers the most costily in terms of support, etc?

50 mins seems perfect for a trial to see if you want to purchase it.

Seems like a smart move for Atlassian. Still no dominant CI cloud provider.

Yeah, Travis and CircleCI are okay but there's still plenty of reasons to run your own.

I’ve found plenty of reasons NOT to roll your own...

Am I still limited to 10 steps per pipeline? Because that's always been an issue for me

I think so! I am reluctantly using it currently, it’s simplicity is great if your just building, testing and deploying to a couple of environments. So maybe it’s just good enough for most, and that’s fine. However, It’s practically useless, and wholly frustrating as soon as you want to build any remotely functional CD pipeline. Fan out, fan in? No chance. Build step history? Nope. Random step failures and wait times to pull images? Yeah, loads of them. To top it off, it’s all part of Bitbuckets incredibly slow platform where pages take up to 10 seconds to load. My favourite part of it all the discussion forums and 7+ year old feature requests for things like commit signing.

Semaphore 2.0 offers 1,300 minutes (disclaimer: I'm a cofounder, so you can also AMA).

Why does my company need to use the stupid self hosted Bitbucket. argh.

because "security" or some bullshit. Why does the bitbucket not saas implementation still not use the same API :|

The saas and self-hosted versions don't even have the same features.

For example, there's a two year old open "high priority" ticket for adding the ability to restrict pushes to branch patterns, yet still allow new branches to be created, for the saas product. The self-hosted version has apparently had this feature before the ticket was opened.

What about Bitbucket Server if you need to be on premise?

https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserver/bitbucket-s...

I dont think it is in active development anymore :/

Security isn't necessarily bullshit.

CI/CD presents a significant risk and it's not like CI/CD vendors have never had a security incident. Not to mention the unpublished access a member of their staff may have to interfer with your runners or pull your access tokens/secrets.

If an org is more comfortable having their own people assume this risk, I think the gitlab helm chart is better solution. At the same time, a small org, without the resources to properly look after this in-house, should use a SaaS vendor.

This was one of the main reasons I moved from bitbucket to gitlab. I hit my 50 mins in a week and was completely disappointed. After using gitlab for a year I’m really glad I left bitbucket. Gitlab has a great product.

Thanks for the feedback. It's greatly appreciated.
