Our take

With researchers predicting that the CI/CD tools market will continue growing into the new decade, now is a better time than any for companies like Buildkite to find clients. Founded in Australia in 2014, Buildkite is well placed to find delivery company clients in the 2020s from its huge landmass and export home country of Australia.

Buildkite design tools and platforms for eCommerce, communications, and delivery companies as large as Shopify and Intercom. It has raised considerable funding which fuels the development of new products after the success of its Test Analytics tool (which can help test the reliability of test suites for developers.) As it continues to add to its suite of offerings, Buildkite has shown some real staying power, remaining relevant amidst a lot of competition.
