AWS CodeCommit Likes & Dislikes
It is a fully managed and grows with the business. As of yet no real issues, and scaling with the business as we grow.
The main advantage is data sovereignty, where the data lies within you. AWS ecosystem where your existing IAM permissions can be used to push/merge code, no separate SSH keys needed. Logging and observability - each and every action will be logged in CloudTrail which will be used for security audits. Pricing would be comparitively cheaper if you are already in the AWS ecosystem.
AWS product. Integration is flawless as expected. Roles, access controls and policies are easy to manage. Managed hosting - AWS handles everything, storage, backup, etc. Highly reliable - have never had performance issues regardless of repository size. Works well with pipelines.
The UI is very basic and needs to be updated/allow for the flexibility that other products offer. Whilst custom IAM properties work well, other areas can be confusing at times. The Devops team complains that it is a simple GIT repository and lacks some elements of management.
Pull Request Interface is way worse compared to the other alternatives. Comment threading is basic, it requires another tool to interact regarding the suggested changes in the code. Notifications rely on AWS SNS and it sends raw unpolished emails which. And mainly lack intuitive integration with the popular IDEs for effective and seamless experience.
Web UI is very minimalistic and is not very user friendly compared to other services. Limited to services. It's good for what it's good for, and that's it. Could require some external tools. It is not widely used as a code review tool hence lacking community support.

AWS CodeCommit Offers Strong Security but Lacks Efficient Collaborative Review Features
AWS Code commit is a functional and extremely secure, but it lacks a smooth, efficient code review process. However, it would feel slower compared to any other modern tool available in the market. In simple words, it would be suitable for solo developers/DevOps engineers and those who prefer security over efficiency. - SOFTWARE QA<50M USDSoftwareReview Source
Solid Git-based repository hosting inside AWS ecosystem
Highly dependable, fully managed source control service seamlessly integrated into the AWS ecosystem and workflows. For a team that works inside AWS, it simplifies repo hosting and access management. Setup process is very straightforward. You do not need to maintain infrastructure or worry about scaling. On the downside, the user interface feels a bit utilitarian, and some features are more basic compared to dedicated code review platforms. Overall a recommended choice if you want your repos to be highly integrated with AWS system. - It Associate1B-10B USDSoftwareReview Source
Dependable AWS Repository Simplifies Security Yet Lacks Advanced Ecosystem Capabilities
It's a stable and no-frills repository that works reliably within AWS. It's been dependable but basic and is nice because it's not laden with feature-rich overhead. - ENGINEERING MANAGER<50M USDMediaReview Source
CodeCommit Integration Streamlines Development But Lacks Essential Forking Feature
Using CodeCommit makes absolute sense for our organization. Our innovation department has streamlined project development and has been used essentially as a "deployment mirror".
