Positive overall
What do you like best about the product?
Seamlessly integrates with Github and is ridiculously easy to setup
What do you dislike about the product?
Outages seem to occur more than I would like, likely because Circle depends on a lot of other services?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having an efficient and reliable CI / CD pipeline, the benefits are frequent and reliable deployments and the ability to ship features quicker.
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Their containers are a bit out of date running older version of Ubuntu for example, but they are quickly fixing this!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.
Fantastic continuous integration services
What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI is one of the best continuous integration platforms available. Their services are fast and very feature rich, allowing things such as ssh capabilities for failing builds etc which can save mountains of time. Their service is very good at getting default builds running, and allows tweaking from there to make the build and running processes as smooth a possible. The support is always fantastic, with responses often coming within minutes of enquiries.
What do you dislike about the product?
Native support for some up and coming technologies has been slow to evolve e.g. Elixir; however there are many unofficial methods out there to support most technologies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous Integration needs to be at the core of every development team. We have tried many providers, including hosting our own, and nothing had the simplicity and reliability that we've had with CircleCI.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out, the free tier is very generous, there's likely to be very little that you'd want to accomplish in the continuous integration space that you won't be able to do.
Pretty darn good.
What do you like best about the product?
CircleCI let's you focus on development and getting things done. It's not another responsibility and it allows you to use your time more wisely (coding rather than baby sitting builds)
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI needs work. During builds we get a bunch of logs spit out and it takes forever to scroll down and follow along with the logs. This is seriously annoying and the behaviour doesn't seem consistent. Some initial set up also isn't all that simple, but once you get it going it's not really a big deal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps you and your team focus on writing code and building features, compared to other CI solutions circle isn't another responsibility. Once it's set up it usually does its thing and it does it well. It's become invaluable.
Great if you need heavier features, otherwise heroku's CI features work just fine
What do you like best about the product?
I love the automation of it. No issues with a developer forgetting to run a specific suite of tests, because you can't push without it. Also a little bit of public shaming when someone brakes the build is always fun.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have a super basic setup. A couple of projects, with basic unit test and only a team of 3 developers so it's just a little too heavy for us. I don't see the benefit of dealing with the confusing UI when the heroku CI github integration works just find and is all in the same place.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making sure we don't push broken code!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Checkout heroku or Travis
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.
Circel Ci is easy to integrate and use with cool UI/UX
What do you like best about the product?
Circle Ci is easy to use, integrate and have cool UI.
I mostly love all the feature of it.
It also provide 1 free container that is good for open source project. Open source project owner can be use this Circle Ci integration tool easily.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some times it's take a lot of time for test a build, i think it can make faster.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous Integration for the product and Apps are easy to achieve with circle ci.
[Ci skip] is also supported by circle Ci so if we don't want to run CI for documentation releated code then it's make easy to use.

Good consistent CI
What do you like best about the product?
Good UI, all the most common and expected features of a CI tool.
Slick UI with a great UX. Fast builds. One free build container.

What do you dislike about the product?
No bitbucket support. No open source free projects. No obvious way to encrypt secrets (a little confusing documentation).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous integration.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at Travis CI and CodeShip first. These all have similarities, but the other two are preferred for me.
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.
