Our opinion
Jenkins is currently the OSS continuous integration server per se and can be used in virtually any area thanks to a wide variety of plug-ins. The CloudBees CI package offers additional plug-ins, which provide further clear benefits when it comes to professional utilisation in the company.
In addition to security and performance aspects, they also address governance and stack management topics based on practical experience.
The professional support provided by committers from the community is essential for companies that build, test and deploy business-critical applications based on Jenkins.
