We performed a comparison between AWS Amplify and Microsoft Azure DevOps based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Release Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Typically, whenever we make changes and need to switch environments (e.g., dev to production), it's easy for our developers to maintain the state of each environment and make customizations as needed. They don't necessarily need to involve the cloud team for basic management."
"The most valuable feature of AWS Amplify is authentication."
"The link with Figma is very nice. You can create your design in Figma, and then you can import it into AWS Amplify and use it. You can link it to your data source and data bindings."
"Monitoring is most valuable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it saves time."
"It's graphical representation and tools are easy to use."
"We can track everything from the requirements stage to the production stage."
"Provides us with user histories."
"What I like most about Azure DevOps is how easy it is to manage projects and control deployments."
"The integration of the whole cycle is the main strength of the tool. If I want to control the cycle with other tools on the market, I would have to use several tools. However, this is not the case with Azure DevOps or TFS."
"The initial setup is quick and easy."
"AWS Amplify could improve in the deployment. It would be beneficial to have more methods, such as automation."
"AWS can implement multiple web applications, and cross-platform applications, like iOS."
"Its capability to handle big projects needs to be improved. If you generate a user interface in Figma and import everything where all components are in one directory, currently, it is complicated. It isn't able to cope with that. For small projects, it is not an issue, but if you have big projects and you want to use AWS Amplify, then it gets more difficult. That is the most important point for me. It should be improved to cope better with bigger projects."
"I want DevOps to have more automated reminders about tasks that don't need management. We don't have reminders, so a project manager must track the tasks. It's not automatic."
"The tutorials for building pipelines are an area that is a bit technical for a beginner."
"I have not been able to use the integration with automation features, such as test management automation, with a framework that is written in Java."
"It would be very useful if it had better integration with Microsoft Word because we would like to be able to define the priority requirement document and add it to different stages of the backlog."
"We did have some brief performance issues, however, that was due to putting everything on one epic instead of breaking a project up."
"I think that the integration is to some extent, immature."
"With Microsoft, I would prefer to have more test plans. It's very difficult to find individual test plan module training."
"This product would be improved if the helpdesk were included."
