So easy a front end dev can setup!
What do you like best about the product?
Simple configuration, easy notifications for failures and fixes.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could use a little more documentation about running certain types of tests, but all in all, I cannot recommend CircleCI enough to friends and colleagues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improving the development workflow by automating our unit tests while keeping devs on their toes by forcing passing CircleCI tests to merge PRs.
Powerful, up-to-date and all-around awesome
What do you like best about the product?
They're all about docker. This shows how up-to-date they are.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times, their tests take a bit longer than they should. Their caching could use a bit more TLC and container initialization time (while getting better) can still be faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automated testing and deployment. With what they've built, you can notify on slack upon build failure, etc. Any ideas you have, there's probably a way to do it.
I love CI about as much as Circle does
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of configuration is unparalleled. We use CI on new projects day one.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of tools for multi project repos. We would love to keep our front and back-end code together in one repo while splitting the CI for them. So, it'd be great if we could run two builds separately based on the same repo.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lots of them. We run all our projects through CI and deploy from Circle as well. It's definitely simplified the way we operate.
Awesome Circle CI
What do you like best about the product?
Configuring is extremely easy. The first I configured circleci.yml, I didn't expect it but it was an easy one.
What do you dislike about the product?
I should be able to indicate the sequence in which I want my tests to run

**Configuration**
Building features for software application without having to think if we are missing something out. The first time I had to use Circle CI 2.0, it was awesome. I had little or nothing to do in configuring CI for my application. It took less than 2 minutes to setup Circle CI for my application.
**Continuous Integration**
Continuous integration enables team to ship small features at a time. Circle CI supports this effectively. With CI we do not have to build big features before deploying to production. The good thing is all these process have been automated by the help of Circle CI. With Circle CI, we even run Acceptance test. The only thing we do on staging is to run QA. Once the application passes the QA test, it goes straight to production without delay and users are happy.
**User friendliness**
Circle CI has a fantastic User interface. Just that a new user might be lost at first. Maybe there should be a walkthrough for newly logged in user but when you are used to the interface, it is very easy to use. Also if I am logged in and visits the home page, I shouldn't see a login link, although it automatically logs you in when you click the logged in link.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I will recommend Circle CI to any team that wants Continuous Integration and ship application features faster. It is easy to use with less hassle. Fantastic user-interface and ease to use.

What do you dislike about the product?
Additional containers are a bit pricey IMO at $50. There are other services offering similar products at much lower prices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Code Quality tests + Unit tests - pre-merge requisites

Best continuous integration platform, the most compleate, fast and with great support
What do you like best about the product?
The improvements on Cicle CI 2.0 lowered our build times by half and the workflow approach allows us to save even more time when rebuilding since the tests phase of an specific commit don't re-run, that's awesome!
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually nothing I like it a lot maybe the overall build time can be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Circle CI we build our docker images, run tests and linters and if everything is ok, the deploy is executed on specific environment as needed, the slack notifications are very useful for tracking the progress
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The platform has been live long enough and constantly improving, that gives confidence in its "knowhow" the price is ok compared to other alternatives vs the benefit, 100% recommended
Great Service.
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to set up, highly configurable, works automatically with github.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not too much to say. Their docs could use a little love, but the community suppsort generally makes up for it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fully replaced our Jenkins build server.
Hold your whole team to the standards you test
What do you like best about the product?
You can push up your local branch and let the whole test suite run while you continue to work so see if there are any tests that you might have broken. This is very effective for the 'unintended' consequences for your PR and not knowing what other parts of the code base might be effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting the whole team setup was not that easy or getting access to your teams other branches so that you can see what you are waiting on in the queue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous integration and pre-deploy code checks to make sure that master is not broken.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Absolutely worth it to keep you whole team accountable.
Extremely Flexible, Docker Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
Excellent ability to parallelize builds, especially with the (currently beta) Workflows 2.0.
The new Workflows 2.0 is EXTREMELY flexible.
Very responsive to help requests.

What do you dislike about the product?
UI can be slow to load, doesn't work on some browsers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vastly reduced deployment times, much better visibility of builds for less technical team members.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use Workflows 2.0 as soon as possible.
