What do you like best about Depot?

From the beginning, Depot has always acted with urgency on our interactions, the setup is literally installing their Github App and changing a single line. Setting up Depot was the most effective initiative in 2024 and it was only a week of effort, including writing the business case and presenting to the VP. It was really easy to convince management and after a few months of usage we observed a 60% cost reduction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Depot?

During onboarding we had a surprise with job queue time, which is the time from when we trigger a job to the time the job is running. Depot prioritized solving this issue, and within a week they deployed a new implementation that stabilized queue times to an acceptable range. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Depot solving and how is that benefiting you?

Depot offers an alternative to using Github on-demand runners. Depot runners are hosted in AWS which allows me to rely on implementation assumptions. For example: When we use Github Ondemand runners, we had to also use Github Container Registry (ghcr.io), using an alternative like AWS Elastic Container Registry (ECR) would cost extra on data transfer, but with Depot Runners we can safely use any AWS service without cost penalties.
