Parallel Build system for quickbuild you can initiate multiple builds of source code at a time.

Some times agent system of PBS hangs whiles i use it back in 2014. But I think it should be solved by now.

  ### 2. Easy DevOps implementation with QuickBuild

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Girish K. | Lead DevOPS Engineer , Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 17, 2020

**What do you like best about QuickBuild?**

Likes:
The STEPS, STATUS views, GRID, Administration TAB.
The GRID tab to manage the agents is really awesome as it provides the different status like ACTIVE, INACTIVE and UNAUTHORIZED tabs which is going to help us a lot in case of testing and maintenance.

The Que menu really helps us in overviewing the status of the execution in detail.

The beauty comes in the Administration menu where LDAP integration setting is the one help us a lot.

The database management is really easy and provides the different authenticators options to go with.

The option to submit the support requests strait from the login page, the base data collection required for the support ticket, makes the life easy here.

Dislikes:
Need to restart the agent for any change in the environment if it is coming from variables.
The size of the build configuration is more sometimes which would consume the disk space quickly, but its okay in todays environment.
The SCM trigger need rework as it doesn't work as per the design sometimes.

Recommendations:
Need something solid implementation to dynamically distribute the environment variables changes quickly without restarting the agents

**What do you dislike about QuickBuild?**

Need something to dynamically refresh the environment without restarting the agent
Need rework on SCM trigger.
Need to make the COPY stage configuration independent and also ability to copy the small part or the chunks of the configuration.

**Recommendations to others considering QuickBuild:**

Quickbuild is going to make the DevOps world easy by offering its feature rich CICD components. I dont have to install and maintain the tons of plugins as the QuickBuild offers its tightly supported, needed plugins. So I really recommend QuickBuild.

**What problems is QuickBuild solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Parallel executions and thus saving 4 hours on each build.
Mixing of different build environment, MAC, Unix, Windows is really helping us to visualize the status in a single dashboard
