"Having builds and test tasks triggered on commit helps not to break the product."
"The most valuable features of Jenkins are its ease of use and good plugins available. You are able to connect to a lot of solutions."
"It is very useful for us to be able to collect and manage automatic processing pipelines."
"Automation of chores like deployment, frequent manual tasks (like running scripts on test and production systems) reduced the time used and the number of errors made by engineers, freeing them to do meaningful work instead."
"With Jenkins, the pipeline will take your code from any versioning system like GitHub or Bitbucket. All the security scans can happen in one go and then all the tests also get run. You can just build one container in it and deploy it."
"Jenkins is the most widely used development tool, so there are many plugins and it's easy to integrate. There is a large user base to provide community support, which I find very valuable. If I need to find a better way to do something, I can always get help from the community. Automation is about thinking outside of the box, and other users are constantly adding new plugins."
"I would like to see additional support for things outside of Cloud Foundry."
"Sometimes you have Jenkins restarting because of OOM errors."
"Partition security for the workflow of projects is not yet an option."
"The support for the latest Java Runtime Environment should be improved."
"A more user-friendly UI for creating pipelines would be helpful."

"Improvement-wise, I would want the solution's user interface to be changed for the better. In short, the solution can be made more user-friendly."
"Its schedule builds need improvement. It should have scheduling features in the platform rather than using external plug-ins."
