## Digital.ai Deploy Reviews
  ### 1. Great Idea, but needs to be more intuitive

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Siraj M. | Lead Consultant (DevOps), Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 24, 2021

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

Ease of deployments of almost all prevailing technology packages. Not much is required to be done as XLDeploy prepare all the deployment steps on its own.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

Not too user friendly. UI has a lart scope of improvement.  Also many simple but useful features can be added to help users.

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Enterprise-wide deployments are done using Deploy tool

  ### 2. Continuous  Integration Continuous Deployment Tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Roy W. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 12, 2020

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

It is very user-friendly.
The products has the capability to display deployment analytics and generate reports that enable users to improve on their systems.
It is quite secure.
Easy and fast deployments with ability to set self-service deployments.
Supports latest cloud technologies as well as containers.
In the case of errors there are  automated rollbacks to keep your system up and running.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

The demo is not enough, I would suggest a full documentation for one to seamlessly operate the product.

**Recommendations to others considering Digital.ai Deploy:**

It really saves time on manually having to upload every changes on the system. Also with its capability to perform rollbacks and keep versions of the system makes it even the best platform to handle continuous deployment.

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A smart way to continuously deploy your systems or application automatically. Highly secured and keeps versions of the system which helps in the time when a system rollback is necessary.

  ### 3. Does not solve anything

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 19, 2020

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

There is no positive element to this software.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

Learning curve for some complex issues is insane. Documentation is a nightmare.
When you think you can use it as Infrastructure as code, dream on. It only does some deployment, no configuration management. What a Devops engineer wants is tooling that manages the integrity of the deployment. Something XLDeploy isn't managing at all.
It is an additional tool to manage that absorbs a huge amount of time that could have been better spent to REAL Devops tooling.
Way too expensive considering the license costs against what XLdeploy should solve for customers, and the reality is that it is not able to solve what is promises.

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My client has 80+ development teams that should switch to use Xldeploy but it does not solve anything. The applications use a wide range of languages and tooling.
We see no benefits only downsides, it drains budgets and time schedules.

  ### 4. It does the job but can be better

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michelle W. | Intermediate Business Analyst, Strategic Portfolio Office, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 14, 2020

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

Its customization options are good and it allows you to deploy several environments at the same time.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

It says that it is used to speed up deployment while greatly reducing error but it was quite difficult to set up, i might as well use another platform with the same amount of time.

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

XL deploy has given me the ability to continuously deploy different environments at the same time.

  ### 5. My experience with XL Deploy

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 06, 2019

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

What's most helpful about XL Deploy is being able to see a structured and organized layout of what our applications are, and what versions of those applications are in certain environments. I also like the ability to configure different values for dictionary keys, both in plain text and encrypted, for including in properties files for deploys to different environments.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

One of the downsides I've noticed in XL Deploy is a lack of an automatic refresh feature of displaying the most current versions of applications, environments and infrastructures available.

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problems we are solving with XL Deploy are configuring properties for different environments and more fully automating our builds and deploys using Jenkins and XL Release. The benefits we have realized are being able to configure different values for different environments in our applications, as well as possessing a layer for storing data about our applications when releasing our code.

  ### 6. Positive Experience

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Banking | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 07, 2019

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

Possibility to have many configurations, per dev environment for example and being able to update and redeploy quiet easily.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

Not being able to simply and smoothly have a dictionary per application package. And the integration with Jenkins although it works fine, passing params is sometimes unintuitive. 
One other thing is that the UI is sometimes sluggish, especially when editing dictionary values.

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The main problem we are solving is having different configuration values and files per environment and deploying our packages and we successfully did that.

  ### 7. XL Deploy - Easy Deployment

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 12, 2019

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

In real time , every web application will be configured on multiple servers , XL deploy make easy to deploy in all the severs at a time.
Generally as per business requirements source code is visible to all the users but secured information like password and configuration details will be stored in property files.
XL deploy will provide easy way to deploy on single server as well as multiple servers.


**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

XL deploy is looking as legacy user interface(UI)
It is more convienant if XL deploy provide help document.

**Recommendations to others considering Digital.ai Deploy:**

Easy and time cosumption deployment tool

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reducing time consumption and manual work  by deploying on multiple servers at a time.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Banking | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 28, 2019

Integration with existing tech stack and complete infra as code.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

The ordering of DAR being applied can’t be determined by the plugins...
It makes work a bit surprising some times

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The daily CI and CD needs are being solved by this as we deploy our enterprise applications using XL deploy on websphere and also as a stand-alone application.

Documentation is not great. Ambiguous information.

**Recommendations to others considering Digital.ai Deploy:**

Better to do a poc on your own.

Continuous deployment is implemented with this tool. We also keep track of all our deployments.

  ### 10. Nifty tool to speed up delivery process

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Swadesh S. | HGA, Insurance, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 10, 2016

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

XL Deploy does several things right. A great example is the uploadable zip archive that may have the full app executable, configurations, database content etc... Can use environment specific parameters by using placeholders, fills them up from a key-value table. Has plugin support, mainly for java and .net, deploy scripts are standardized. Can deploy to several environments at a time, say test, development, production.It keeps a detailed version history, including the database, key-value tables. The ability to rollback to an earlier version with just a few clicks is just awesome. The dashboard is pretty good too.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

A few problems that still linger are with the custom dependencies. We sometimes got a buggy deps that crashed the build, Also, the dashboard will not always report information reliably. It might show build successful but upon opening detailed status we got to see stack error when the deployment did not work. Some stability issues with plugins need to be solved. All things considered, only the dashboard is the mission critical problem that we have faced.

**Recommendations to others considering Digital.ai Deploy:**

Should give it a spin. While it is a pain to set up properly, I think the end results just might be worth it.

**What problems is Digital.ai Deploy solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We can easily deploy to several environments, fast. We use Jenkins for CI and DeployIt to push to our production servers.

  ### 11. Automated Way To Deploy Application Releases 

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Subhendu M. | Systems engineer, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 04, 2016

**What do you like best about Digital.ai Deploy?**

With XL Deploy, we can easily repeat complex deployments to vastly different web container without much Hassle. The plugin system augments XL Deploy and covers most of today's requirements, extensibility is always a big plus. Detailed status about every stage in the pipeline helps iron out any issues. Can use packages built with TFS for automatic deployments. Can create a scratch project with simple pipeline. Supports maven. Some of these are great features, some we can live without but we are using it all.

**What do you dislike about Digital.ai Deploy?**

The initial setup is not as streamlined as I would like. Documentation is hard to process. The GUI is a mess, requiring proprietary software to view in a browser. More complex pipelines can not be visualized as easily. Plugin backward compatibility is something I would like rather than fast pace updates that has a specific dependency. Can not replicate actual command line.

**Recommendations to others considering Digital.ai Deploy:**

Frankly, our release frequency has gone up by several factors. I recommend you to try this out as it is simply impossible that you will get burned if you follow the instructions.
