Azure Pipelines Reviews & Product Details

The best aspects of Azure Pipelines are its powerful automation, flexible scalability, and deep integration capabilities. Azure Pipelines lets teams automate build, test, and deployment workflows across many platforms, reducing manual effort and errors while accelerating delivery cycles. Its support for YAML-defined pipelines as code ensures transparency, repeatability, and easy collaboration with version control systems. Seamless integration with popular tools (Azure, GitHub, Bitbucket, Docker) and secure, cloud-hosted or self-hosted agents give users flexibility and control over their CI/CD environments.

Debugging and troubleshooting - pipeline failures can be hard to diagnose, logs are not retained indefinitely on the free tier, and running pipelines locally for fast iteration is limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Azure Pipelines are an excellent tool for managing projects, especially when your team already has a platform deployed on Azure DevOps. They provide a streamlined way to handle builds and deployments within the Azure ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The YAML pipeline syntax can be quite confusing, especially since you have to pay close attention to indentations. It's important to check them thoroughly to avoid errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Azure classic editor Pipeline, where it allows me to drag and drop the stages to build my DevSecOps pipeline faster compere to other CI tools, And also the option to use, the self hosted Azure Agent is awsome feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While there is a free tier, for larger teams or when using more advanced or additional services, the price can rise quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Azure DevOps is its seamless integration across the entire development lifecycle — from planning and tracking work items in Boards to automating CI/CD pipelines in Pipelines. It enables cross-functional teams to collaborate efficiently, ensures traceability, and reduces manual overhead through automation. The flexibility to connect with GitHub and various third-party tools also makes it incredibly versatile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Azure pipelines have build and release pipelines which are easy to use and implement.

- we can utilize features such as gates, approvals, automated deployment CI-CD to promote your code to higher environments easily and securely.

- Azure pipelines are tightly integrated with Azure boards, repos, and overall azure resoruces, so doing some work with other azure services is much easier.

- If there are any issues with your setup, just check community forums and most likely you will find your solution there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- sometimes the pipelines takes too long to execute / respond (maybe due to downtime from azure side). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy it is to automate everything with Azure Pipelines. Setting up builds and deployments feels smooth, and I don’t have to worry about things breaking—everything just works. It is easy to automate builds and deployments with Azure Pipelines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it feels a bit complicated to find errors, and the interface isn’t always the easiest to navigate. I wish it was a bit more user-friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that I have documentation, software version control tools like Git and pipeline frameworks with secrets and variable management in either a UI / YAML format all in one place, with Kanban Boards and Tests Suites to boot! Everything I'd need for a software project in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The marketplace is often filled with fluff and not cleaned up frequently enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its integration with Azure services is easy.

CI/CD automation tasks are easy to handle.

This can be integrated to cross platform deployments. Not only Azure cloud this tool can be integrated with on-premise and other cloud platforms.

It provides the Details logs of the deployments and If configured correctly it will send out the deployment logs to individual/group emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since integration with multi platforms, A new engineer feels little uncomfortable to use it.

Even it supports multiple platforms we require Azure agents to deploy on the end platforms. This implies costing as well.

During my experience I received a very limited support from Micorsoft on this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
