It's super easy to configure and troubleshoot pipelines for automatic testing and deployment of projects. The UI is very easy to use and self explanatory. Also it's super easy to connect with various VCS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most difficult part is when working for example with one project on github and one project on bitbucket that you have to constantly logout to switch between them. Also once got stuck in a redirect cycle where I was being redirected to a project from another account after login.. which sent me back to the login page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The configuration is easy enough but at the same time there's lot's of possibilities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The documentation could be improved, but i understand it the way it is Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Very easy to use pipeline software

2. A lot of resources to learn the tool quickly

3. Support for macOS builds is the 'killer feature' Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. We get a lot of emails when there is a failure in the pipeline.

2. UI can be better

3. A bit expensive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CircleCI is very easy to use and has a very intuitive interface. It also has many features and tools that help in getting insights from different builds. It is on par with the other tools I have used for the same goal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is no scripting configuration. You must rely on the YAML file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is easy to set up. The github integration made setup very fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Configuring which branch/tag a pipeline should run on is difficult because the "filters" are all OR filters, not AND filters. It would be nice to be able to use both. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Circle CI running automated tests to help prevent regressions. These automated tests catch errors that my local dev set up does not catch, which implies circle CI is necessary for writing bug free code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fairly often tests timeout when running circle CI, and then I need to restart the test. When I restart the test, I sometimes have to wait 20 - 30 minutes. This eats into the development cycle with a lot of waiting time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to debug. It displays very explicit information about why my code was not good enough or wrong. Therefore it helps me reduce technical debt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it can still be quite slow. Especially when running a large amount of E2E tests on an important project. I know there is an option to hold them so this duration is not really a problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CircleCI works very well out of the box. It does not take long to be up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We initially had issues debugging some of our builds but the feature to ssh into your build container fixed that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Circle Ci offers a lot of tools and customizations. It is very well linked to github and has a lot of orbs . The documentation is also very rich. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Circli Ci still have some limitations, like the integration with private repositories is still limited, also there is no support for concurrent pipelines to wait for each other to begin ( synchronously runnig ) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Many tools provide CI/CD capabilities, but Circle CI has a good set of utilities and is very organized. In addition, much of the complexity is already solved by the tool, allowing developers to focus on what matters: the pipeline Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes I feel that deliveries take longer than they should, but maybe it's my company's settings. Overall I am satisfied with the service offered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
