Definitely has all of the functionality you need to handle deploys at a large scale, and is suited to heavily technical people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is dated and can be a bit hard to figure out where things are sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is good and the canary deployment feature is the best compared to other tools in the market. Even though Jenkins holds a high position in the competition, Spinnaker is equally good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The complexity of the pipeline structure and minimal usage of resources, along with a not-so-great UI, could be improved. Also, more addons and plugins for custom modes would be a good improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spinnaker is a very easy to use tool with perfect UI interface and easy setup making it a go to tool for deployment EC2 deployments and kubernetes deployment are very easy using spinnaker Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their is no in built monitoring feature in spinnaker for example any of my spinnaker monitoring pod goes down the owner never gets notified which leads to loss of high availability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have worked at Amazon before, and they used to have an internal CI/CD manager. At the startup I work with, Spinnaker provides really good way for me to manage the same, coming to almost at-par of what Amazon used to have internally.

The triggered deployments based on ECr is what saves the day for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are few key missing features as well, as far as I am aware. For example, specifically for experimentation, spinnaker can provide plugging in external resources (like a dev desktop) for a particular deployment, making sure that the load balancer also pushes the load to this, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Monitoring and deployment; once everything is set up Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Slow, buggy, very resource hungry, lacks some basic functionality (in ECS, no container overrides) , no much support or further development since release 1.26 in April 2021. Reported a few bugs that were closed after 90 days because of inactivity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

stability and easo of multi-cloud multi-platform deployment.

Robustness. Ease for debugging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Documentation, Community docs repo. The information is scattered and is hard to find a procedure to achieve something specific. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can setup pipelines for different processes.. e.g. one pipeline can be configured just to release artifacts while another will pickup the released artifacts and deploy it to any domain that is configured. Each pipeline is configurable with steps that can be defined and linked to jenkins jobs that can either cut artifacts, create docker images, deploy docker images to domains etc.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For manual judgement steps which need to be triggered manually, if there are multiple pipelines waiting in that phase, it is not possible to move them forward until the others are dismissed. Workflow Steps are unidirectional so there is no going back in case anything fails or needs a change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It supports incremental deployments and supports “green/blue” deployments which are crucial in Agile methodology. Due to cloud deployments, it is easy to manage and configure deployment pipelines.

The best part is easy creation and adjustment of deployment pipelines using a GUI interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does not have plugins options like in Jenkins which makes it hard to work with. Secondly, It is not comfortable in managing SCM, thirdly, we sometimes struggle in running tests and building packages. Spinnaker API is more popular than the Spinnaker pipeline to deploy to AWS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spinnaker enables you to deploy code pipelines into the cloud on with great flexibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ironically, it is a nightmare to setup and configure. It is a total pet that requires the used of a purpose built installer.

The primary way for deploying software seems to be via manually created pipelines rather than code by infrastructure.

It is a little split brained in that it is made to make deployments in the cloud easy and reproducible, but spinnaker itself is not that way, and neither is the creation of the pipelines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
