The pre-made actions are great, especially for someone that’s new to the tool. Once we had a clear understanding of the capabilities of Buddy, we were able to fine tune the pipeline to our needs. The pipeline system is extremely clear. Onboarding a new developer to the system is as easy as walking them through each step of the pipeline. Everything you need is laid out in each step. There are no buried configs or environment variables. Last but not least, it was our support that was called the #1 feature. So proud! Probably the best thing about Buddy has been the support. Using the Intercom widget in the app is great. You guys have been super helpful! Thanks Dan, always a pleasure working with you guys! 🔥 Sign up at to automate your deployment now! 🔥 buddy.works
