CircleCI a Novice Experience Review

  • August 27, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The fact that tests are automatically found without me having to set anything up is an amazing feature that I've been looking for in CI for quite some time.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much I dislike. The documentation is a bit confusing for a novice with little no experience using the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primarily, the efficiency of starting and setting up a new project is the greatest benefit from CircleCI.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start off slow, there's no need to feel in a rush with CircleCI as many of the pit-holes normally faced when integrating some form of CI into your project are easily conquered through CircleCI's generous handholding.

Best continuous integration platform, the most compleate, fast and with great support

  • August 24, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The improvements on Cicle CI 2.0 lowered our build times by half and the workflow approach allows us to save even more time when rebuilding since the tests phase of an specific commit don't re-run, that's awesome!
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually nothing I like it a lot maybe the overall build time can be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Circle CI we build our docker images, run tests and linters and if everything is ok, the deploy is executed on specific environment as needed, the slack notifications are very useful for tracking the progress
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The platform has been live long enough and constantly improving, that gives confidence in its "knowhow" the price is ok compared to other alternatives vs the benefit, 100% recommended

Great Service.

What do you like best about the product?
Simple to set up, highly configurable, works automatically with github.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not too much to say. Their docs could use a little love, but the community suppsort generally makes up for it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fully replaced our Jenkins build server.

The Best CI I've Used

  • August 07, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- CircleCI team is quick to add features / resolve issues
- Great Docker support
What do you dislike about the product?
- 2.0 feel incomplete / unstable (Currently down at the time of writing)
- Poor Slack integration
- UI could be better
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Docker and Circle CI to:
- Run Unit / Integration Tests
- Build docker images
- Deploy to AWS
Recommendations to others considering the product:
-Support is limited to support forums even if you are a paying customer
-Plenty of features, not all of them work well

Easy to set up and use for uncomplicated projects

  • July 30, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
If you've got a typical build pipeline and want to add your Android projects so they build on a 3rd party service instead of setting up your own Jenkins server, CircleCI should be on your short list.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could never get caching of SDK downloads to work, so it always updated their build images version of the Android SDK to the latest before building and that was a waste of 5-10 minutes.
For larger projects, the VM they give you also doesn't have enough memory, but for larger projects, you're probably to be looking at more complicated solutions that involve running tests on emulators in parallel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simplifies setting up a CI/CD pipeline for your Android (and server) projects without requiring you to setup and maintain your own build servers in-house and worrying about them running of disk space, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Circle CI 2.0 is a lot faster now and is well worth considering. We ended up only needing to pay the lowest cost bracket.

Hold your whole team to the standards you test

  • July 27, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You can push up your local branch and let the whole test suite run while you continue to work so see if there are any tests that you might have broken. This is very effective for the 'unintended' consequences for your PR and not knowing what other parts of the code base might be effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting the whole team setup was not that easy or getting access to your teams other branches so that you can see what you are waiting on in the queue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Continuous integration and pre-deploy code checks to make sure that master is not broken.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Absolutely worth it to keep you whole team accountable.

An effective, if clunky, CI

  • July 20, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Once it's set up, you can just let it run without having to think about it. If any of your builds do fail, it offers a lot of tools to examine what exactly failed and replicate the failure. It's really easy to see if something failed so you can fix it quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
CircleCI's interface is incredibly obtuse at times. Various settings are scattered on different pages and there are sometimes arcane requirements to unlock features that makes onboarding new developers a hassle. (To their credit, though, their support team is fantastic.)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use CircleCI almost exclusively as an automatic testing tool. I believe it also automates deployment, but we do not use that feature.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read the documentation. There is an incredible amount you can do that isn't apparent from daily use.

Extremely Flexible, Docker Friendly

  • July 06, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Excellent ability to parallelize builds, especially with the (currently beta) Workflows 2.0.

The new Workflows 2.0 is EXTREMELY flexible.

Very responsive to help requests.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI can be slow to load, doesn't work on some browsers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vastly reduced deployment times, much better visibility of builds for less technical team members.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use Workflows 2.0 as soon as possible.

Easy, simple, powerful. Yet sometimes black magic to make edge cases work.

  • July 06, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Love that I don't run infrastructure. Love that it integrates nicely with Github. Really like the pricing structure, i.e not per project but per parrallel build...
What do you dislike about the product?
Need to do a lot of googling around to figure out things. The way it "inspects" your code to figure out build steps means that it's a bit like Rails, there is some magic going on!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to package and deploy every successful commit taht passes CI into our containerized environment for Quepid.com. It lets us provide a simple URL to our team (QA, product management, interested parties) so they can see in isolation every change made by every commit! https://github.com/o19s/grand_central
