The easyiest experience with CI
What do you like best about the product?
How it was easy to configure and keep running and the cost
What do you dislike about the product?
I think it's a little slow and that forces you to buy more containers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous integration across my team and testing
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Keep in mind that for low volume it can be cheap, but as your need grow it will become very expensive.
Great tool for increased development productivity
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to parallelise different aspects of the build flow and increase build speed considerably especially for larger scale applications.
Additionally the ease of iterating the workflows by introducing minor changes and being able to test those quickly against specific branch build made it super easy for us to improve our build over time whilst using it.
Additionally the ease of iterating the workflows by introducing minor changes and being able to test those quickly against specific branch build made it super easy for us to improve our build over time whilst using it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing to properly dislike! The general interface could do with some improvements to allow e.g. adding titles for containers that run specific build steps on the UI to make it easier for less technical users in the org to understand what's going on, but it's more of a small issue as opposed to something big.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to standardise the build flow on CI including running test etc and linking that up to our Github pull requests made a whole suite of automated checks available that we didn't have before raising the level of product quality that we are able to deliver.
A booster for your team efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
It was super easy to do the initial setup. We were ready in less than a week.
What do you dislike about the product?
Using the documentation is sometimes hards since there are two versions. V1 seems to be the default but everything else encourages you to use only V2 features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our devs had to wait up to 20 minutes for our test pipeline to finish. This didn't even include all checks but only the most relevant ones. The result was that the review column of our Kanban board just grew and grew because it was so hard to push features through. With Circle CI we execute 3 times the checks in a quarter of the time. This immediately cleared the review column and also sped up the reviews since we could automate more.
Circle CI is the best Continuous Integration tool
What do you like best about the product?
Very configurable. Love the push notifications when jobs finish. Also love the docker integration in v2.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the UI can be a little buggy, but not usually. The docs are decent, but could be better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CI is necessary for ensuring our codebase is properly tested before merging code.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it and don't look back.
Strightforward CI
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use and the low barrier to entry
What do you dislike about the product?
Not being able to run android emulator in CircleCI 2.0
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Makes spotting errors and their fixing easier
Was easy to setup and great ability to scale
What do you like best about the product?
Speed, ability to scale to our needs. Ability to select beefier machines for our projects (Scala takes long to compile)
What do you dislike about the product?
The navigation to the settings screen is not straight forward. Hard to get an overview of all your projects. No code coverage or other health stats.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running tests ensuring only valid builds are deployed. We are using it to deploy as soon as we merge to specific branches
Simplify your CI/CD
What do you like best about the product?
For fast and easy to implement solutions, CircleCI is an excellent choice
What do you dislike about the product?
About their actual product, nothing. The web UI could perhaps use some UX improvements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automating builds and deployments
Help in integrating with circleci
What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI is universal, easy to configure and integrates well with existing cloud services. The pricing is calculated "for parallel assembly", in contrast to "for the project" - this allows us to also include several small projects on the side without breaking the bank. The ability of SSH to machine is an excellent bonus, this reduces the amount of time spent tracking errors. CirclecI simplifies the configuration of the integration server - in most cases, a simple yml-file with minimal changes between projects easily allows our Android applications in CI!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I run into problems with an outdated cache, and I have to rebuild the assembly manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Running large sets of tests is the main advantage. We hope now to create Docker containers with a conveyor.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When you use CircleCI, you save a lot of time! Subscribing to a small development team justifies itself. You get a 14-day trial period to try it out, so do not hesitate to find out if it meets all the requirements of your team
it works
What do you like best about the product?
it works. we can deploy our stuff more quickly, and we can blame each other if something fails. And have a git integration, so we see it instantly. So much fun with it
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes slow, but only because our app is slow too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CI
Level up your pipeline
What do you like best about the product?
CircleCi came to our rescue when Travis was blocking us at every turn. With the ability to use docker containers, schedule cron builds, and restore cache files; CircleCi became our best decision to date and shaved our build times in half
What do you dislike about the product?
Our only dislike is the config.yml file. It can become very verbose. But it's not difficult to maintain, and it rarely changes after setup
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CircleCi is the center of our development team. We use it to run all quality checks; build and deploy infrastructure all over the world; coordinate our staging code branch; and trigger backup procedures. We're yet to find something CircleCi can't do for us
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try. Especially version 2.0. Our pipeline times have been cut in half and our workflows enhanced our continuous integration and continuous deployment. No longer to we have to trigger a database backup or merge our code into a staging branch. CircleCi was able to do it all!
