### "Best tool for managing source code"

November 9, 2020

5.0

Bitbucket is best tool of managing and sharing source code across teams and I have been using Bitbucket since long time in my organization. I could not find any alternative of managing source code.

Pros

Bitbucket supports integration with all Atlassian projects. Code review features of bitbucket are best ones. Developers can utilize efficiently without mentioning code files and line numbers. Managing source code has become very easiest with Bitbucket.

Cons

Bitbucket lacks deployment features. Merging and Rebasing features are bit complicated.

### "Bitbucket Review"

June 1, 2019

5.0

We have been using it at work and it does its job perfectly, we can do everything we want in Bitbucket and we're very satisfied with it

Pros

The practicality and the simplicity of it. The idea that you can track your work, see what others have been doing, what else needs to be. I think it's amazing

Cons

Maybe the different terms, in the beginning, were a bit difficult to understand but once you get used to it, it's a very simple tool to understand

### "The best Versioning software !"

July 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

We have been using this tool, along with JIRA, for a few years, and it's definitely the way to go! Perfect UI, no bug, integrations, love it!

Cons

I guess it's still very expensive, but worth it. It would make sense to also create some kind of communities.

### "Impressive UI & version control for git from Atlassian"

March 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

Bitbucket as web based versioning application for git repository. I have been using bitbucket for a very long time in projects which use GIT. It's easy and smooth. You can create branches, tags, merge them within seconds. The history & difference options provided for files are classic and helps developers a lot. Also they provide direct integration with JIRA as well which is quite beneficial to link the task and commit.

Cons

none, I absolutely like it from a developers point of view.

### "Ok product, for the price"

December 3, 2019

3.0

It's ok overall, but I would much rather work with the industry-standard of GitHub.

Pros

It's low price, general feature-complete. Offers collaboration, and a pretty fast web interface, no repository limitation.

Cons

Not as good as GitHub or GitLab in my opinion. Definitely lacks (basic) features like commenting while doing a side-by-side comparison/review of a file, lack of good tools and integrations with other software around it.

### "BitBucket Review"

March 13, 2019

5.0

Overall, BitBucket is a industry standard source code management tool that can enable CI/CD pipeline with Jenkins as well. Lot of git commands equivalent work can be done easily from bitbucket console.

Pros

1) Very good source code management tool for a small and big team. 2) Underlying commands are git commands so, very easy to start with if anyone has git command concept. 3) We can set up pull request, code review permissions just with few clicks. 4) has rally plugin to connect any feature branch with Rally stories.

Cons

1) Sometimes when feature branches deleted, they came back again the following day. 2) Sometimes access and roles are difficult to differentiate between developers.

### "Easy way to manage Git repos"

April 23, 2018

4.0

Pros

Simple interface (desktop) and website syncs nearly instantly with all commits/pushes. Works perfectly with all other Atlassian products.

Cons

It's missing some key things that I like in competitor products such as "timelines" of commits, and tree visuals.

### "Free Running Code Availability With Debugger"

April 30, 2019

4.0

Awesome.....functionality.

Pros

A free text editor is provided and is fully operational for the practice purpose of software coding. The inline coding facility is also available and works in all programming languages. This is the biggest advantage of this software. We can learn coding as well as share our codes to make other people learn from us.

Cons

The site runs slowly and always need a strong internet connection.

### "just fine..."

August 18, 2021

3.0

Pros

Like all things, working with a product that fits into an ecosystem makes life easier. We use Jira so the integrations made life a lot better!

Cons

Github is just better. More user-friendly and more people know how to use it. Tricky to like a software when there is just a better alternative

### "Bitbucket is the best place to store your code"

September 20, 2019

5.0

I am able to develop my software and keep the code maintained better using a VCS like Bitbucket.

Pros

The basic features of Bitbucket are free, and free users can even have private repositories.

Cons

there is no open-source self-hosted option.

### "Awesome tool for hosting your private repositories for free"

October 4, 2019

5.0

The experience has been smooth so far. There are a lot more tools on table, can't speak about all of them, but for simple use case for private repositories this is an awesome tool.

Pros

It's free. Before Github started offering free private repositories, this was my go-to for it. It's easy to register and start pushing code to your repository within minutes.

Cons

I prefer Github's interface above Bitbucket's, but since I use it mostly for storing my code, that is not such a great issue.

### "So Long, GitHub"

February 2, 2019

5.0

I never thought I would use any git tool other than GitHub, but Bitbucket has made me revisit that. I love the simplicity of the interface, and the generous pricing model. Combined with Trello for issue-tracking, I find myself thinking of GitHub less and less every day.

Pros

\- Clean interface - Command line integration - Pull Request interface - easy to comment, create tasks, and resolve issues - Free private repositories

Cons

\- Missing GitHub's built-in issue-tracking

### "Parfait pour la gestion des projet de développement"

November 7, 2022

5.0

Pros

Bitbucket est parfait pour gérer ses projets de développement collaboratif. Le système de versionning et de partage d'avancement entre le différents utilisateurs est parfait pour avancer ensemble sur le même projet.

Cons

Le logiciel peut être un petit peu difficile à prendre en main au premier abord mais devient l'outil indispensable une fois celui-ci appréhendé.

### "It's very useful for startup or teams that use JIRA"

March 16, 2018

5.0

The most important benefits are that we're able to close or modify Pull request / issues from JIRA issues / User stories.

Pros

I really like bitbucket because it allows to have private repositories and projects in their free plan but with limited team members. Nevertheless it's a powerfull platform for all kind of projects.

Cons

It´s a bit complicated for git beginners / junior developers. It doesn't allows to add PGP signatures for commit signatures / verification.

### "Git Repository with LFS"

November 3, 2018

4.0

Embedded software development with small and large teams.

Pros

Easy to setup and get started. Many features to customize projects and user access.

Cons

Large File Storage (LFS) support doesn't work well when bitbucket authentication is set to use directory access.

### "Use Bitbucket when your repos aren't git"

June 15, 2020

4.0

I was mostly using BitBucket for their unlimited private repos feature (whereas GitHub used to have a limit of 5) but now that GitHub allows for unlimited private repos as well, I have fully migrated over to GitHub.

Pros

Bitbucket, unlike most of its competitors, supports non-git version control systems such as Mercurial and Perforce. That's the main advantage I'd say (and honestly the only reason to pick it over GitHub or GitLab IMO).

Cons

Here's a small list - the UI is not nearly as beautiful or snappy as GitHub's or GitLab's - the UX can be confusing, e.g. it was hard to get used to the menu bar - almost complete lack of a community presence - no wiki collaboration feature

### "BitBucket Version Control"

January 4, 2019

5.0

Pros

BitBucket is a great source code version control tool providing a central repository to manage code diffs and detecting any conflicts.

Cons

It's difficult to delete source code branches when the only feature provided is one-at-a-time deletion.

### "CI/CD Not optimal"

September 21, 2022

3.0

Overall my experience was good, but not great honestly.

Pros

The software offers all the basic functionalities that a developer needs, like an easy interface and a great versioning system based on git.

Cons

The software is missing of a solid and good CI/CD system. Forcing you to use solutions like bamboo, which are not well documented.

### "A great alternative to GitHub (if willing to pay)"

June 17, 2021

5.0

I used it for three years daily from 2013-2015 at a previous job. We managed a team of 20 developers with this and other Atlassian tools. Overall a great experience

Pros

I am not sure about the cost but this is a great alternative to GitHub. I have been using it daily for 3 years between 2013 and 2015 and I found it really a great tool to use git.

Cons

I find the tool totally comparable with GitHub. Its ticket system, based on Jira, is also great. So nothing that I dislike

### "You don't need github :)"

September 11, 2019

5.0

Overall, bitbucket has been a great tool for my company.

Pros

Like most, bitbucket was an alternative to GitHub (When private repositories were paid for). Apart from the price, it's relatively easy to use, with a nice UI/UX platform. it also integrates easily and well with JIRA.

Cons

The biggest con, with using bitbucket solely as an engineer is exposure. Github has more users and tends to be the goto place especially for Open source Development.
