Our take
CloudBees is an automated and end-to-end software delivery platform that enables companies to balance governance and developer freedom. It offers developers and enterprises a raft of solutions to accelerate software development, cutting down on unnecessary hassle and inefficiencies.
With the increasing trend for remote-first workforces, the need to keep development and operations in effective communication has never been more urgent. CloudBees' world-leading Jenkins DevOps server has provided a stable company foundation since 2004, and the company has built on this with a string of strategic acquisitions and integrations to remain a strong DevOps provider.
The company has been working to advance and accelerate product innovation, expand its footprint and broaden its global and regional partnerships, all since hitting the $100M annual recurring revenue mark in 2019. With its track record of keeping pace with the challenges that DevOps organizations face, it's expected that CloudBees will remain a top choice, and it's already being used by the likes of Allianz, Bosch, and HSBC.
