Circle Works well
What do you like best about the product?
It makes CI easy and seamless for common platforms
What do you dislike about the product?
Some less common utilities don't work as well. We've had performance issues where tests failed for no reason.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're solving the problem of continuous integration and continuous delivery. We found that using this method to software deployment greatly increases our productivity by closing the feedback loop.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely consider using Circle if you are using common platform such as GitHub and Heroku for code versioning and deployment. The less mainstream and unique your deployment situation the less well Circle will work out for you.

CircleCI review
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to configure using the circle.yml file, unlike jenkins where you need to configure everything centrally.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's no such I dislike, sometimes the service gets a little bit slow compared to travisci or bitrise but it's still okay.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing, linting, building static html sites and uploading to s3.
My Journey With Circle
What do you like best about the product?
There is very little needed in terms of maintenance.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not too fond of having to have someone follow the projects. I get a lot of unnecessary emails.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing and docker image creation
my review

The automation of integration/unit testing along with deployment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Seems a bit slow at times. Sometimes the same testing takes 10-15 minutes longer than others.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
unit testing and integration testing

Why you should use CircleCI
What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that you no longer have to worry about manually pushing out your builds to the Google Play Store and that with Continuous Deployment you can just sit back and watch this great product work.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I dislike with CircleCI is when you have a PR that is being checked but then you push new changes to that same branch the first build needs to be completed before it can run the check with new changes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We save tons of time with code review and avoiding code change issues by using CircleCI it's really a life saver especially when you have many people working on one code base.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're not using CircleCI you need to implement it because you're wasting time!
The CI solution you dreamed of, but didn't have the time to build yourself.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use, very clear documentation, and strong real world examples make it a perfect CI solution.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't a great deal to complain about I'm a real fan.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Makes Continuous integration a breeze for any software development project.
Good
What do you like best about the product?
Integration with GitHub, Slack, level of polish, being able to SSH in to debug, using yaml for the configuration file
What do you dislike about the product?
Slow builds, blocked builds, inability to test on GPU instances
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Golden builds, automated testing. All developers know what the golden build it -- like the ability to prohibit merges if a build breaks or tests do not pass. Forces a high bar.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do it
Fully-featured product with awesome UI/UX
What do you like best about the product?
I really love CircleCI's UI / UX. Being able to see builds spin up and run in real-time is perfect. I find everything very intuitive and useful. Whenever builds fail, I can very quickly find the problem and re-run the build. My favorite feature is begin able to SSH into the machine which has come in handy for some very tough to track down build failures.
What do you dislike about the product?
When it comes to core features, there's really nothing I dislike. CircleCI does a great job of providing an elegant, well-thought out product. Everything they do, they do well. So to find what I dislike, you basically have to look at what they don't do. The top thing on my list is Selenium support. We've gotten it to work in CircleCI but it's hasn't been easy. I feel like there's probably something they could do to improve Selenium support although it's probably not easy. But that would certainly bring them to the next level in my mind.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They allowed us to implement Continuous Integration / Deployment and automated testing *very* quickly. It really has made that process so fun and easy that I've never had to convince anyone on my team why that might be a good idea. We've vastly improved our reliability. No longer are buggy builds getting pushed to live. Definitely a vital part of our process now.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CircleCI is the only solution I've tried in this space, but they do a great job. They've had one or two outages in my time with them, but they've addressed and resolved those outages very quickly and professionally. Their pricing is very fair and easy to try out before you need to commit to a large contract or anything so there's definitely no reason not to try them!
Convenient & debuggable
What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI makes it possible to connect to your CI instance and debug anything that went wrong, which is oodles faster (and makes less of a mess in git) than trial-and-error.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still remotely hosted CI on shared infrastructure, so you're at their mercy to roll out system changes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CircleCI is easy to configure for CI and debug when it goes wrong.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a whirl. Push as much config as you can out of any CI-specific config file, though - shell scripts are your friend.
