Agrxis Review on Codemagic

Comentarios: I've generally been pleased with my interactions with Codemagic. By automating the build, test, and deployment procedures, the platform has assisted me in streamlining my app development process. My processes are straightforward to set up and manage because of the user interface's clarity and usability. I also value the degree of customisation that is offered because it enables me to modify the platform to suit my particular requirements. Every time I have a query or run into a problem, the support staff is likewise incredibly accommodating and helpful. Overall, if another developer is searching for a solid and effective CI/CD solution for mobile apps, I would heartily recommend Codemagic.

Puntos a favor:

I adore Codemagic so much! The simplicity and use of this platform are what I value most. I don't have to spend a lot of time configuring a CI/CD pipeline using Codemagic for my mobile app development projects. The platform is incredibly adaptable and supports both iOS and Android app development. The program also offers real-time feedback on the building process, which aids in my ability to spot and fix problems or faults as they arise. The customer service is also excellent and quick to respond. Overall, Codemagic has greatly streamlined and simplified my mobile app development process.

Contras:

Thus far, my experience with Codemagic has been very positive and I have not encountered any issues or concerns.

Codemagic for Reliable Mobile App Development

Comentarios: Codemagic generates a reliable business performance in mobile development

Puntos a favor:

Codemagic delivers a satisfactory mobile development services

Contras:

Codemagic outlines a friendly assistance and support

Worst support for worst product

Comentarios: They wasted three days of my time, but with no result at all. Product is worthless

Puntos a favor:

There is nothing to like about this product.

Contras:

No support at all. Documentation is faulty.

Overall Good CI/CD for Flutter

Comentarios: We needed a CI to build and publish a Flutter app for Android and iOS to both stores as well as Firebase App Distribution. Bitbucket Pipelines doesn't offer Mac machines so we chose something Flutter-specific to not have to worry about Flutter setup in CI.
The good pre-configuration of the build machines as well as publishing tools saved us a lot of time in setting up the CI.

Puntos a favor:

Good integration with Bitbucket, easy to use UI to set up CI jobs. Mac machines with everything preinstalled to do Flutter testing, build and releases. Allows auto-cancelling of previous builds if new commits are pushed. Especially App Store Connect helpers were very welcome since we didn't have much experience with publishing iOS apps. Newer Yaml configuration option also works well and can of course be versioned with the rest of the app.

Contras:

Lately webhook events are sometimes processed out of order when you have multiple coming in (for example you push to a branch with an open PR, which triggers a hook for both the push and the P{R update). That can lead to the wrong builds being auto-cancelled and a bit of confusion as to whats happening. Sometime issues with retrieving build logs. Dark mode could use more contrast. Linux machines still lack cache support. All in all only minor issues though.

Unity CI/CD

Comentarios: We have faster build times. It is more secure than Jenkins. Very easy to setup for developers and other team members.

Puntos a favor:

We were having a hard time building our games on Jenkins and codemagic came to the rescue. We can take concurrent builds at the same time for iOS, since it's a SaaS we don't have to manage the platform. It's very easy to use and set up. Pretty cheap when you compare it with the other platforms.

Contras:

You can store your codemagic.yaml file on the website so you always have to have it on your repository.

Magic bullet for mobile CI/CD

Puntos a favor:

The UI configuration wizard is one of the coolest thing of the whole system. Also, 1st class Flutter projects support is something I was looking for.

Contras:

There is no way to easily do a feature request or contact support, since Codemagic pushes users to their Slack community instead of giving a chance to just contact the right person. Also, after using Bitrise for quite some time it feels like Codemagic misses some additional predefined steps for configuration.

A truly wonderful, modern CI

Puntos a favor:

The first thing that struck me about Codemagic is that it looks and feels like a modern tool. Many of the competing softwares in the space have a terrible user experience, which makes you immediately shiver when you first open them. Codemagic is quite the opposite. The user interface is clean and the platform is very configurable considering. I've found builds to be fairly quick and the platform stable. They do a great job of rolling out updates consistently.

Contras:

While the interface is great, I think there could be some improvement in terms of how projects are laid out. Overall, very minor.

Competent platform for iOS

Puntos a favor:

We had an ready transition from our last tool. In the past, changing platforms has been an ordeal.

Contras:

Many features are Flutter centric. Sometimes the docs aren't clear that something is specifically for flutter builds, and other platforms feel second class.

Best CI for Flutter

Comentarios: Excellent. Not only from a tech, value proposition point of view, but only from a customer service. The slack channel the use for that is an excellent idea.

Puntos a favor:

It's a CI specific for flutter ecosystem, so you have every option you need for that platform and stack, and no option you don't need.

Contras:

The (extremely rare) ocasional instability of a company starting up. Nothing to worry about.

A great CI/CD tool

Comentarios: Overall, there is no better combination of price and developer experience. Tools like GitHub Actions are powerful but require more configuration and are probably better suited for larger teams.

Puntos a favor:

Ease of use - essentially low maintenance once it is set up. Developer experience Great customer support Competitive pricing

Contras:

Currently no static analysis or support for code coverage. Reporting on failed tests could also be better. In the past I have had issues with Apple Dev Console authentication. Mac Mini instances can also be slow at times.

Codemagic is truly Magic

Comentarios: We had a CI/CD solution setup for a new Flutter app in less than a week which has enabled us to build an entire app within 5 months from start to finish and achieve a tight feedback loop with testers and stakeholders. The customer support quality and responsiveness is unparalleled.

Puntos a favor:

The ability to get a Flutter app built and deployed is so simple and streamlined that even non-developers can define their own workflows to suit their needs.

Contras:

The UI can be a little difficult to navigate at times and find certain features.

Works for you, and not against you.

Comentarios: Never had any issues, and it's my go-to CI/CD for mobile apps. Period.
Even in clients where they have already something setup, those solutions always have hiccups, fail time to time, and then we end-up using CodeMagic.

Puntos a favor:

Multiple workflows on the same branch. Flutter out of the box. Multiple distribution mechanism on the same build

Contras:

Device testing farm, so we can test on real devices would be great, although understandably will not be cheap.

Codemagic is all you need to Build and Deploy your product Automatically!

Comentarios: I'm very satisfied with Codemagic. Build and deploying the app manually is a big pain when you have multiple projects and Codemagic does it all with ease. I'm planning to set up all my projects on Codemagic so I don't have to care about building and deploying my apps manually.

Puntos a favor:

The feature which I liked the most is the functionality to add the self-hosted repository to Codemagic. Since we always had a self-hosted git repository, Codemagic was the perfect fit for our use case.

Contras:

Logs are a little difficult to find especially when there's a lot of warnings and then an error in between. If the logs can have color codes it will be perfect. And I also wish that Codemagic could support IPv6. This will help lots of people to test Codemagic on a self-hosted git repository, at their home.

Ultimate Flutter Mobile App Deployment Time Saver

Comentarios: Codemagic has taken away the most unpleasant tasks our app development studio had, and saved us thousands of dollars in staff costs in our first year of using it.

Puntos a favor:

The little details of deployment to the app stores, with Google Play and especially Apple changing things every few months, meant that releasing a new version of an app always had an overhead of adjusting things, maybe changing versions of things in the local environment, to get the build and the upload and the publish steps to work. Codemagic takes care of 99% of this overhead for us. It has all but removed completely one of our most unenjoyable tasks as mobile app developers.

Contras:

The cost is a little higher than I would love - and by that I mean, had they figured out their costing before we signed up, we might not have chosen it. Having said that - and this is so important - it is EXCELLENT value for money - it much more than pays for itself in the developer time saved on app deployment tasks.

Good but not great

Puntos a favor:

It does the job and that's enough to continue using it!

Contras:

Flexibility. For example, we use a monorepo, so every time backend changes are pushed, a new build start, and that's not good.

Great tool for our flutter development

Puntos a favor:

Codemagic supports Flutter which is great. It was really easy to get started and we had the pipeline running in second. Not only building but it was able to push apps to app stores which was really handy and helped us quickly deploy our apps. The free tier is generous.

Contras:

No teams on the free tier but that is understandable.

Code magic is best for CI/CD for mobile application.

Puntos a favor:

- It support all major platform for app development. Like Native development in swift, java and kotlin. It also support for flutter developement. - CI and CD option available are best in the merket

Contras:

- Price could be little lower for indie developers, but still it is one of the best available option.

Automate your apps deployment on Stores with Best Security Coverage

Comentarios: Finally, its a Great product for individual devs, but needs some extra feature to be used as a team.

Puntos a favor:

one of the best features is that Codemagic supports Flutter, which make it easier for me to develop my code, also i am using my preferred platform without restrictions to specific one. also its Simple not complicated tool.

Contras:

i think they are need the team support for the tool, the support is not the best thing, also there're no branch triggers or Screenshots.

Very good experience while using CodeMagic CI/CD

Comentarios: Overall very good experience used CodeMagic CI/CD for almost around 35 apps.

Puntos a favor:

Documentation helped for configuring CI/CD pipeline for native as well as hybrid mobile projects.

Contras:

Need some improvements for Github checks in Github enterprise accounts. Already communicated with your core team. If you can provide it will be very helpful for our team.

Best Flutter CI/CD

Puntos a favor:

We use daily in our applications to create builds for developers test, debug and evaluate, also to ensure that our QA team has the same application that the final user will have it

Contras:

Sometimes you may have some latency between ticket and solution, but we understand that there is a timezone difference

Easy to use build service

Comentarios: Overall it's been an awesome product to use. Save us lots of time and money. Great community support. Great support from CodeMagic itself.

Puntos a favor:

Easy to set up through the web console or as code. Code signing is handled perfectly.

Contras:

Debugging is still hard. Role based access set up for team members is not very clear.

Easiest CI for Flutter

Puntos a favor:

Codemagic is easy to setup for any Flutter project. You can integrate your existing repositories in a single click. I love the automation from a git push to the deployment of the app to the customer. The software is very intuitive to setup and has a thorough documentation to get things working quickly.

Contras:

I don't think this has to do directly with codemagic. But sometimes the debugging process is a bit tricky. When the software compiles on your local machine and codemagic is nearly setup up the same, there can still be issues in the build process. Those issues are hard to debug, but when fixed it works like a charm again.

Makes building and deploying your Flutter apps so much easier

Comentarios: We solve the problem of having to manually configure our apps for productive use, building them and uploading them to the app stores. We drastically reduce the time needed to uploading a new version of our apps, enabling us to publish it more frequent with less hassle and less potential for errors.

Puntos a favor:

Once you have setup your publishing pipeline it is really comfortable to use. You do not have to worry about building your apps, configuring it for productive use, and uploading it to the app stores. While most of our requirements can be fulfilled with the workflow editor, all others could be solved using the scripts before or after each step. The documentation is really helpful and shows solution to many problems we were facing when setting up the delivery pipeline.

Contras:

If you do not use the basic workflow it was quite difficult to setup the publishing pipeline. As soon as one script/part failed, you had to debug it and start the whole build from the start which can take quite a long time. It would be really helpful to have the ability to resume the build.

Easy to set up

Puntos a favor:

The easy of us. Editing via UI or the config file

Contras:

The time it takes to build, can be quite slow when building

Highly recommend CodeMagic for Flutter apps

Comentarios: Definitely the best CI/CD platform for Flutter apps.

Puntos a favor:

- Intuitive User interface, - Thorough consideration of deployment process for both Google Play and Apple Store, - Excellent documentations and Customer Support, - Pretty good API for automating things

Contras:

I honestly couldn't think of anything that I do not like about CodeMagic. It's a great product!
