"Detailed but not flexible or straightforward"

1.5/5

What do you like best about Azure DevOps Server?

Technically it can be configured in a lot of detailed way depending on the team. It is more useful for the backend engineers who use it for version control and code review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure DevOps Server?

We primarily use it as a task management system and there is no easy way to attache multiple people to be assigned a task which might be cross-discipline. I prefer more visual systems like a Kanban style board. While it is very customizable, it takes a lot of effort to configure the way I would like it, and then is not flexible or easy to change afterwards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Average Project/Product Management Software"

3/5

What do you like best about Azure DevOps Server?

Hierarchy is related to Jira. Good reporting. Integration with Excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure DevOps Server?

Difficult at times to group and find items if you are used to the cleaner JIRA interface. This makes tagging critical when you need to do any reporting. Unlike JIRA, you do not start and stop iterations manually-they start and stop based on their start and end dates. Doesn't have concept of versions or releases like JIRA does. Many of the custom features require administrative rights so you are often constrained by a client's instance. Developers must update their hours to ensure burndown functions accurately.

"Overall Poor VCS"

2/5

What do you like best about Azure DevOps Server?

It has some interesting features regarding project management / teamwork. Integrationcwoth AD is also nice. If you can, I'd recommend using the Git support as TFVC can be a pain to coworkers with especially if you do any work outside of the Microsoft Stack. It has a number of ALM tools built in, such as a ticket board, Kanban board, chat rooms, etc.,which may be helpful if you follow any sort of agile practices. It also supports code reviews, which is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Azure DevOps Server?

Very poor IDE integration outside of Visual Studio. Poor and confusing documentation with some broken tools as well. The biggest example I've encountered of this is with Jetbrains IDE's. The Microsoft supplied plugin for VSTS required a command line tool that ended up breaking after working fine for several months. I reached out to support, and they were helpful, unfortunately I ended up getting nowhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Azure DevOps Server:

If you're not stuck in Microsoft vendor lock in, or not using a MS stack, it might be better use the Git support as opposed to TFVC Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Azure DevOps Server solving and how is that benefiting you?

Version Control primarily. It allows you to version and back up your code with decent integration with other parts of the Microsoft stack. It also provides a near complete set of ALM tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
