Consistent.

  • February 16, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility of build steps, ease of configuration.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can be a bit unpredictable at times, and sometimes lags/freezes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use CircleCI for continuous integration and deployments. After a pull request is merged, CircleCI takes care of the rest. This has taken away entirely the random deployment issues that used to come up when we were doing things randomly (environment differences, package version differences, etc.)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the automatic deployment features. It's really nice to only have to merge a pull-request and have that be the final step.

Good Service

  • February 16, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Mainly speed and flexibility, in how the test platform can be configured to run the workload exactly as I wanted

- Support is actually very good and very technical, easily the best I have seen in a vendor
What do you dislike about the product?
- It is not easy to test systems built against Ubuntu 16.04 (only Ubuntu 14.04 available out of the box)
- Sometimes tests are slow
- Containers are allocated evenly across projects in the organisation, so projects that have slow tests can simply steal containers away from projects that have fast tests, which is unfair.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- We wanted a way to test every commit and not have to run our own Jenkins and babysit it
- We wanted testing run as fast as possible, notifications sent to chat rooms and so on
- So far CircleCI has solved these issues for us

- In addition the build parallelisation feature exposes issues in test ordering and is very good
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Invest time properly to craft a proper CI workflow with CircleCI at the centre instead of treating it as a simple remote RSpec runner.

- Super simple to setup
- Good price
- Excellent support for deployment
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks features found in Jenkins CI such as dependencies and using variables from one build job in another
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CircleCI helps our dev team spend less time on deployment and testing and more time writing code.

What do you like best about the product?
Works simply. With a simple file you can configure your CI and all works fine. The free plan is really great and helpful. We can start to use circle-ci without any cost and solve a lot of problem in start. With time if we grow we can start payment and the insight get with payment are usefull
What do you dislike about the product?
the docker support is medium. We need add some trick to work with it. I rewrite almost all step to works fine and be sure my docker is well test.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I know if my build is green or not. All is automatic. I can deploy in security
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend it. It's simple and works like a charm. The free plan is really great to start without cost.

Great platform that has worked for us

  • January 31, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI makes it easy to rapid setup up continuous build, integration and deployment environments. Our needs are pretty basic in this regard, but it seems to support everything out of the box.
What do you dislike about the product?
The "my account" interface is a little bit hard to navigate and sometimes I find myself getting lost with where I am in the settings and what github org is the information on the page referring to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted a way to automate all of code building, integration, and deployment to make our processes more scalable.

A modern CI platform that just works

  • January 31, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI offers simple YAML configuration that gets committed with the code repository, meaning we don't have to spend time visiting the CircleCI UI unless we actually want to check the dashboard. Circle integrates with everything, the most important of which for us is GitHub.
What do you dislike about the product?
CircleCI can often feel a bit sluggish, even with a multi-concurrency plan. The issue isn't so much with concurrency as it is the time it takes to spin up a single instance, configure it, check out the code, run your tests, and then finally deploy. This process can easily take a couple of minutes or longer depending on the size of your code repository and the number of tests, but as long as you aren't waiting for each deployment in order to continue development then it should not be a real concern.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are fully automating our testing and deployment process from our local development machines up to the production server thanks to CircleCI.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try out all of the options and choose for yourself--I think it's easy to see the benefits of CircleCI in comparison with pretty much any other CI tool out there.
