Octopus Deploy Reviews & Product Details

I use Octopus Deploy to automate application deployments across multiple environments. It makes releases consistent, repeatable, and easy to manage. The ability to handle complex deployment workflows and integrate with CI tools has saved me a lot of time and reduced errors. I really like how Octopus Deploy simplifies complex deployments. The standout feature for me is the ability to create re-usable deployment processes and manage multiple environments effortlessly. Its integration with CI/CD tools and the intuitive dashboard make tracking releases and approvals very easy. Reusable deployment processes save me a lot of time because I don't have to recreate steps for every new project or environment. Once I define a process, I can apply it across multiple applications, ensuring consistency and reducing errors. Managing multiple environments is equally valuable. It lets me promote releases from dev to staging to production with confidence, using the same tested workflow. This makes deployments predictable and eliminates the risk of missing steps during critical releases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is the learning curve. Setting up complex deployment pipelines can feel overwhelming for new users. The UI, while powerful, sometimes feels cluttered when managing large projects. Also, better built-in reporting and analytics would make tracking deployment metrics easier.

I have been using Octopus for over 10 years and it has always been super easy to install, maintain and use. It is a comprehensive tool for deployment orchestration which makes your software deployments reliable and repeatable.

Octopus used to provide not for profit organisations with a free licence. However that is no longer the case. This is a fairly common trend at the moment, where after lock in for years, a company starts charging making it difficult to do anything else but pay. I understand this economy means businesses need more and more revenue, though I'm not a fan of the way it is dealt with, particularly for not-for-profit organisations.

When you need to rely on it, sometimes runbooks don't run and just hang. We are asked to reboot the agent weekly by Support and the underlying issue has not been addressed<br>Deployments are sometimes slower than I would like, although this seems to be improving recently<br>The recent changes to pay in advance rather than arrears are my main complaint because this causes friction.

The deployment target nature of setting up agents on every physical machine can be a little challenging.
