    Octopus Deploy
    • Octopus integrates nicely with TeamCity, our build server.
    • Octopus uses the same deployment packages across environments and makes it easy to track their progress across those environments.
    • Octopus makes it easy to handle configuration across environments which is usually a particularly difficult task.

    Cons
    Axify
    No answers on this topic
    Octopus Deploy
    • UI is very fluffy and padded. It looks pretty but it could benefit from a more compact, information-focused design
    • Deployment process options are not always laid out in an intuitive manner. Choosing which steps to exclude, which environments or targets to deploy to, etc., is not immediately clear
    • Lack of useful reports and metrics for tracking active deployments and historical data

    Octopus Deploy has greatly helped us to improve our reliability and frequency of our deployments and given us the confidence to deploy much more often, with a direct benefit to customers. Cross-platform support and release to Cloud require more focus on the product side.

    Octopus Deploy support has always been there for us, even when using the free tier, we get responsive hands-on help. We haven't needed to use that level of support since the documentation is clearly written, and help is readily available within the interface itself. Using Octopus Deploy is a truly joyful experience.

    Octopus Deploy
    There aren't really any competitors in the land of ASP.NET. Deployment is too ad-hoc. Other tools exist that have massive downsides, like Web Deploy. Most aren't even supported anymore. You could argue that containers (Docker) are a competitor, but containers cannot be used for everything and solve a somewhat different problem. Octopus Deploy is even able to help with containers. To us, Octopus Deploy was really the only really polished solution.

    Octopus Deploy
    • While not an inexpensive product, it has proven to be a good value. I don't have firm ROI numbers but our PROD deployment quality has improved, and we now measure deployment times in "person-minutes" rather than "person-hours".
    • Our defect rate due to missed configuration items has been significantly reduced.
    • Octopus has enhanced our ability to enforce SDLC separation-of-duties.
