"It’s very convenient and intuitive to use, also the performance is super smooth."
5/5
What do you like best about CircleCI?

Intuitiveness, reliability, the overall UX is pretty solid. CI with this speed really helps iteration move fast. Also the costs are not that high given the benefits of the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CircleCI?

I Haven't encountered anything issue in particular as such, but rarely builds fail due to transient network issues and can be frustrating especially if it's a big build. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Platform for managing all our application releases"
4/5
What do you like best about CircleCI?

Build time is the biggest strength of circleCi. We also can run workflows with SSH which is very helpful. It also gives good notifications regarding the builds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CircleCI?

Circleci dashboard is not very intuitive to use. And it is also very slow in term of responsiveness. Also analysing the history of build times and failure reasons are not easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's stable and fast, but a bit hard to learn"
4/5
What do you like best about CircleCI?

It's capable of doing whatever you want at a very good speed, and it's reliable; it does not have builds fail over nothing, if something fails means there's something you need to fix. Also, integration with code repositories and Slack is very good (at least on my experience) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CircleCI?

It wasn't easy to understand how to build complex pipelines. The documentation I found helped with basic examples, but more difficult ones were mostly at trial and error. Also, the default dashboard doesn't provide much data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"CircleCI is a good tool for fast moving teams, but not always the most convenient."
3/5
What do you like best about CircleCI?

The upsides of circle ci are that you can Easily specify the machine that your tests run on. Defining tests are very simple (I.e the yaml definition) compared to things like GitHub actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CircleCI?

CircleCI doesn't live in the same place as my code. Even though there's a GitHub integration, team members have to go into the circleCI console to see why their run failed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good automated pipeline(ci/cd) tool for software development"
4/5
What do you like best about CircleCI?

It's good CI/CD pipeline for early detection of build errors in code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CircleCI?

It's syntax strict. Even a small syntaxes error causes pipeline to fail.

It will be good if we have a tool to verify whether code for circle ci is syntactically correct.

And whole process to run takes quit long time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
