Get continuous integration working quickly.

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to SSH into test machines is invaluable. This lets you figure out errors very quickly. It would be great to do this locally but SSH is nearly as good.
What do you dislike about the product?
The documentation for 2.0 is sparse right now. Fortunately, the support staff is responsive. If something isn't clear it's quick to discuss with them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly to have a single source of truth for the quality of a code base. We have also come to use it for automated deployments to some of our servers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There's an initial learning curve to configuring the test, but CircleCI does a great job of trying to make it easy to debug by allowing you to SSH into the test boxes. This allows you to solve issues very quickly since you have an interactive session.

CircleCI gets the job done!

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to identify where in your build things might have gone wrong, and to rebuild/fix them when they do. It works well across all of my company's stack.
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't seen any guest user functionality, which might be useful for our contractors who push to our codebase
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous integration/deployment, and running builds.

CircleCI is great!

What do you like best about the product?
Easily to config (just drop a file in your Github repo, and it will run everytime)
What do you dislike about the product?
We're using docker, and currently it doesn't support caching for layers. I know that this is a WIP, but... :D
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use CircleCI to compile our statics and it lowed our load CPU on deployment time

Easy to use

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of setup and use. I like drilling down to the branch level and seeing the history of build successes/failures for that branch.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've had issues with the dashboard UI being sluggish, using lots of resources in Firefox 51.0.1 and sometimes the UI doesn't stop loading.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous integration and making sure all tests pass before a deploy.

Works great for small sized team of up to 25 engineers

  • February 21, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Basically the easiest thing to get started on, aside from Travis.
The iOS testing ability is great too.
Pricing is clear, and dynamic, you can change containers up and down every hour.
Performance is good, if you know how to parallelize and script things.
Artifact retention is great.
Awesome github integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Had some real downtimes over the last 16 months, pretty disappointed when the dev team got stuck.
Random flakiness with the container dying for no reason, had to manually rebuild.
Paralleilization infrastructure is not great compared to TravisCI, it locks containers into stages and doesn't work like a fluid work queue.
Lack of matrix build support means it can't support large scale projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Trying to keep our engineering team productive and shipping code quickly.
Easy to get started and flexible enough.

CircleCI is a huge help to quickly bootstrap any project with Continuous Integration

  • February 21, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI is able to configure build automatically for most popular stacks like Java, Python, Node.js, etc.

At the same time, custom configuration can be added easily any time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Docker support isn't great, but they're trying to fix it with CircleCI 2.0 (currently in beta).

Outages happen (but rarely) and it's really hard to understand why some of the builds are suddenly slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Iteration speed
- Time to ship a single feature
- Continuous Integration / Delivery

Solid product, decent support

  • February 16, 2017

What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI does what it says, 99% of the time. I mean that in the best way possible. Testing is a tough business with a lot of things prone to go wrong either in the software or the infrastructure supporting the software. While we do occasionally get a false negative, our overall experience with CircleCI is very positive.

We've contacted their support on several occasions, they've been prompt and helpful. Their user forum is also active and useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The false negatives we get on occasion. But not very often.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ensure that our code base do not go sideways with respect to our test suites.
