It's been smooth to use CircleCI for most of my projects. I've never run into major problems.
What do you like best about the product?
Upsides: Easy to read errors and understand how to fix them. It's also very helpful for reviewing PRs as it can direct you to parts of the codebase that probably need the most work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Downsides: Tests can be slow to run, I find myself staring at the screen for minutes at a time, waiting for the results to load which slows down my development time significantly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's solving problems related to DevOps. It makes the experience of writing production-ready code safer and faster since I can see at a glance what's wrong and how to fix it.
Very efficient, everything compiled in the cloud
What do you like best about the product?
that compiles in the cloud, independent of the local code

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CircleCI helps solve problems regarding continuous integration and testing code before deployment!
A good CI solution for a quick start
What do you like best about the product?
We are using Circle CI for Maven-based projects. The best thing about the CircleCI is its ability to quick and smooth integration with Github. Its OOTB integration with Slack and Jira is also very helpful to track and discuss the deployments on the fly. One's ability to edit and test CircleCI config files through a web browser is also a very good feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
The way CircleCI provide to manage environment variables is a bit messy. It's very confusing when we refer to Organization level variables and Environments variables in circleci.yaml file.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using CircleCI with various types of technologies in our organization. We mostly use it for our Java-Maven (MuleSoft) based applications and PHP based applications.
Easy to use

I found it very easy to set up and it has been easy to make any changes when needed. The doc support is great and we have not found any feature gaps that have caused an issue for us
What do you dislike about the product?
The reliability could be improved. I honestly don't have much to compare to, but I would say probably about once a quarter, there is some sort of issue that blocks us temporarily.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we use circle for deployment. Honestly it was already in use when I joined the company so I am not sure how things were before, but it does make things easy for new employees
