DeployHQ vs Google Cloud Deploy

DeployHQ automates deployments from Git, Mercurial, and SVN repositories to servers. Deployments can begin after a repository push, and build pipelines support custom commands and environment variables. It can connect to servers over FTP, SFTP, or SSH, as well as deploy to targets including Amazon S3, Shopify, DigitalOcean, Heroku, Netlify, Docker, and custom actions. Deployments can run across multiple servers with zero downtime, with one-click rollback to a previous deployment. Other listed tools include build caching, scheduled deployments, deployment checks, templates, team permissions, SSO, and an audit log. DeployHQ AI can generate deployment overviews, analyze logs, and flag potential issues. The service supports web and API access, and names Slack, Sentry, Bugsnag, GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket among its supported tools and repositories. The Free plan costs nothing and allows one project, five servers, one concurrent deployment, 30 build minutes, one user, and three deployments per day. Paid plans start at £9 a month billed once yearly, and a 10-day trial is available.

Google Cloud Deploy automates application delivery through an ordered set of target environments. It deploys to Google Kubernetes Engine, Cloud Run, GKE attached clusters, and custom targets, with releases promoted or rolled back through the web console, CLI, or API. Deployment options include canary and parallel rollouts, verification, deploy hooks, and automated promotion. IAM roles and conditions determine which authenticated users and service accounts can act. Cloud Audit Logs and Cloud Logging support audit trails and platform logs. Teams can invoke the service from CI through its CLI or API, including documented GitHub Actions and GitLab connections. Skaffold and Cloud Build render and deploy manifests, alongside artifact repositories and testing or workflow tools. The first active multiple-target pipeline each month costs nothing; each additional active multiple-target pipeline costs $5 a month per billing account. Underlying services may add charges. The regional system limit is 18,000 API requests per minute.
