Graduated in Digital Media M.Sc. now developing the next generation of educational software. Since a while I develop full stack in Javascript using Meteor. Love fitness and Muay Thai after work.
I assume that companies use Jenkins to "own" the service, while many CI/CD services are cloud based. These services are also available as on-premise but even there they are not equal. They have different license models, pricing models and openness philosophy. Jenkins is free, easy to setup, open and has proven for a long time to be a solid solution for custom CI/CD. Unless your are working entirely open-source this is still the way to go for many companies.
Azure, Bitbucket the idea is the same.. No?

I like and use Jenkins.
I read Florent's question as "why you're not using Jenkins pipelines"? I.e. why freestyle job and on pipeline job?
