The limited range of features that Codebase provides for teams, with DevOps expertise are not good. It provides a poor platform for collaboration and development. It is a bit pricey for teams the fact that it does not support programming languages is a disadvantage.

Codebase needs to benefit from having a user interface and greater customization options. The lack of documentation makes it difficult to navigate and fully understand its features. There are performance issues with the platform and advanced search functionality is limited.

The notifications go as a separate email for each comment. Tracking that can be very frustrating because now you do not know the history. Also, ETA is not available inbuilt. It is very important to have that. It is good but not the greatest tool
