Copado
Managed package
Flosum describes itself as Salesforce-native, which means your metadata and release history stay on the Salesforce platform and you do not add a second vendor environment to your security review. Copado connects to Git hosts such as GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab and Azure DevOps and runs pipelines and user stories on top. If your security team asks where release data lives, ask both vendors for the architecture document and read it. Do not rely on a sales answer.
