1-button deploy.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
do it, you'll love it.
CircieCI is easy to use and helped us be more agile!
What do you like best about the product?
Easy setup and integrations! You can deploy to Heroku/AWS with ease!
What do you dislike about the product?
Documentation was a bit scattered I felt, but after a while it wasn't so bad.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a way to build a pipeline. Code -> Push -> Test -> Deploy
CircleCI met those needs and more!
CircleCI met those needs and more!
Keeping things simple
What do you like best about the product?
Makes continuous integration very easy. Love that it integrates well with Github
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting it up initially can be a bit tricky
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
eCommerce coalitions. Circle has made it easy to continually release new features.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Integrate with Github
Feature heavy system which is a joy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Love that I can get a one-off project up and running in minutes but can also extend it to work with complicated builds.
What do you dislike about the product?
Support surrounding Docker is lacking a bit but I see a 2.0 release where that is focused more coming up soon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having a tight CI build is critical for the startup I work for. Having a fast and easy-to-understand CI system makes it easy for us to have confidence in our software deployment process.
Speed and convention over configuration for the win
What do you like best about the product?
Getting up and going is a breeze. I spent weeks trying to get some other CI tools implemented.
What do you dislike about the product?
Container management needs more refinement. Sucks when you containers go unused because of parallelization settings and then other repos, get stuck in the queue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Speed. Speed to get automated test done and features into production.
Great CI tool with good parallelization options
What do you like best about the product?
SSH access and wide parallelization of builds are by far the best features. We use 24x parallelization on our builds and it has made a huge difference in our day to day development efforts. Their file caching system is really good as well and very fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI can be a bit buggy at times, especially with large parallelization. You generally have to refresh the page to see any updates. The loading of logs can take a while. Both of these are cosmetic. We also find that at times of large usage of the overall system, i.e. Monday morning, the system can become unstable with tests due to longer test times (I think)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving continuous build and integration. Hook Circle up to heroku to get passing master builds to staging is super nice. Our large and expansive set of tests help us catch things early and easily. Give us high confidence in deploying.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool, but quality has gone down for support and UI bugs. Definitely look in to seriously.
Beautiful UI for Automated Unit Testing
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is beautiful and the documentation is really good. Just config a yml file, push to git, and your tests start running!
What do you dislike about the product?
Their containers are a bit out of date running older version of Ubuntu for example, but they are quickly fixing this!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CircleCi lets us visualize our automated testing in a way we couldn't previously. It saves our development team tons of time and lets us deploy faster.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
CircleCI is a great tool to run automated tests and keep the entire team up to date on the build status. I would recommend it for anyone running PHP or NodeJS. Integration is really easy. If you're running Docker (like us) it's possible but requires a lot of setup.
Super awesome CI
What do you like best about the product?
Nice interface, realtime build logs, works with Ruby on Rails, rspec, and cucumbers. Integrates with Heroku and deploys after each successful build.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike. It's a free product, and does awesome stuff.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous integration in the cloud. Way better and easier than a custom built solution, and CircleCI solves that.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's one of the best cloud based CI tools out there.
CI SaaS done right
What do you like best about the product?
My three favorite features of CircleCI are the clean user interface, the ease of setting up parallelism, and the ease of configuration of builds. All three of these combined make CircleCI an experience that keeps me happy with their product.
What do you dislike about the product?
We would strongly like the ability for CircleCI to do our full continuous deployment, but we run our stack in a VPC at AWS, so this is not an option right now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving for build automation, and have reaped this benefit tenfold. Our builds run faster and more stable than they ever did locally. We also trigger tasks like static code analysis and test coverage metrics upon build completion, which is an awesome thing to have automated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely give their free trial a spin, but I don't doubt you will be extremely pleased. Make sure to try out all aspects, not just test running / build automation, but also delve into making your own configuration file and triggering tasks based on build events. This will give you the full experience and a good idea of the effort required for setup within your organization. Don't just take my word for it.
great CI tool
What do you like best about the product?
the ability of ssh into vm/containers is really amazing, since it allows you to easily debug CI configurations and reduce executions trying to fix that configuration
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not have ability to integrate with bitbucket
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CI and CD.
