TeamCity makes a strong case against the potential of science and ingenuity to advance civilization **Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Byron H. | Security Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 18, 2026 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** It has basic features that meet a non-zero percentage of our testing needs. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** So many basic problems, it would take weeks to write them all out. Obvious examples: 1. No click zone on tiny buttons, so a click that falls within 1 pixel of a '...' button will hit the backing panel, causing chaos in the UI. 2. Triggering a build over the REST API requires setting the branch name twice, even though it would never make sense to set the branch name differently in one place than the other. What's worse, if you forget to set one of the branch name attributes, TeamCity proceeds with the build but marks it as a "default branch build", even if the other branch attribute clearly indicated a non-default branch. 3. Build agents are constantly going offline, or going into some mysterious frozen state, requiring manual restart (or worse). Is it really a problem for a cloud agent pool to sit idle for a few hours while remaining available to start agents on demand? It appears there is no testing performed internally at TeamCity, and only the most severe issues reported by users are ever resolved. As a supposed contributor to progress in technological capability, JetBrains is a shocking failure, instead making a case for the regression of civilization wherever it is burdened with such pathological lack of work ethic. Sporting one of the most arrogant company names in modern history, employees in fact make no effort to "work smarter, not harder"; not even the most basic principles and techniques of computer science are applied in the TeamCity platform. Humanity is clouded by disappointment where companies like JetBrains disregard the work experience of anyone who relies on their products. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Purportedly the product addresses automated testing and continuous integration requirements for software development organizations. ### 2.

Goto CI/CD platform for startups and small teams **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 26, 2022 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** The configuration interface is very simple. You can set up the CI/CD pipeline from the UI itself without knowing the coding. Most of the other platforms require payment in order to get extra build minutes or any other feature, but with the self hosted teamcity you can set it up on your local environment, internal server, or existing cloud servers. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** The main disadvantage of teamcity is that you cannot scale with the self hosted plan. The self hosted option only has 100 configurations, which can easily be used when you scale haven't checked the recently released hosted teamcity. Also, one more disadvantage of TeamCity is related to project configuration export, which some of the other platforms offer. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** It is the best CI/CD platform out there for small teams and startups, in which you can get full control of the application as you are deploying it yourself. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are using teamcity for our core application stack.

It provides way to use the tool like Maven. We can use parent settings in child projects. We can integrate multiple version control tools to build. It also gives feature to help testing so the manual testing work would get sort of automated. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** If not configured properly observing build logs can be difficult. User interface is very basic can be improved to the modern technologies. Even if you have small ecosystem of producs/projects you need to fully configure the server. Do not have provision like SaaS. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** Ho for it. It's good and easy tool to integrate in the project ecosystem. If you are looking for quick solution then teamCity is the one. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Build process is fully automated. Building multiple systems on multiple agents making teamCity robust and efficient. ### 27.

We can download compiled build , Screenshot of failed scenario and other reports as artifacts. Multiple teams can schedule multiple builds at same time. It shows details history of the each build and pattern of the test using past results. It shows schedule time, start time and finish time for the each build we triggered. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** I don't see any dislike, it's one of the great build integration tool. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** I will highly recommend teamcity to IT compnies. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Triggered multiple builds at same time on different virtual machines to build quality product.

One of the best tool in the market compared to other CI tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Thati S. | Senior Devops engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2019 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** 1) The best part is the flexibility in terms of branching integration through VCS, 2) Writing build steps w.r.t to the images 3) Setting up the docker images as agents w.r.t versions 4) Maintaining the separate pipelines for every CI & CD 5) A plugin can be installed easily 6) we can maintain a couple of docker agents w.r.t to the pipelines 7) We can use the branching strategies in the team city w.r.t to the pipeline i.e. feature branch, Release branch 8) I use this tool for the integration of sonar Qube & it is dam easy for rectifying the errors too. 9) In terms of the build errors, I feel it is understandable & easy rectifying, I used Jenkin tool but after using the TeamCity I felt this is the most emerging tool in the market 10) I implemented many pipelines to the other departments in my organization & it is understandable even to the non-DevOps folks. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** Only one i.e. For every new setting we can set it up the permission concept. I do understand it is security but for every small thing, It is not required to set it up as permission. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** As I said it is one of the best tools in the market comparing to the other CI tools & I recommended my mates to start using the TeamCity & they are satisfied with the same. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Branching concept mainting the feature branch, Release branch & few other branches for different pipelines. ### 29. Flexible solution to sharing robust models and software **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 15, 2019 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** Once setup and configured, it's incredibly easy to test and release a piece of code, and diagnose problems across multiple teams using the online platform. Highly customisable, such as which outputs to test, what to save, and on which machines the tests should be run. Non-regression tests can also be run locally when developing them, to ensure they meet your requirements for robustness, before executing them remotely. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** Writing and diagnosing the tests themselves can be time consuming, which makes them difficult to maintain in parallel with development of the source code itself. The configuration menus could certainly be made simpler to navigate, too. You really have to know where to find all the options, and what each parameter means before embarking on a successful project. i.e some expert guidance is absolutely necessary to extract the benefits from TeamCity in my opinion. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** Personally, I would recommend to new users to purchase with a technical support package. Understanding well the ins and outs of the software, both the possibilities and limitations, as well as the significance of every parameter is essential before embarking on a successful project. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Implementing testing of changes to code, of which multiple teams can be a customer. By integrating with Team Foundation Server, this process has become automatic and invisible to the programmer and end-user. This has reduced likelihood of errors, and streamlined the process of sharing new software versions. ### 30.

At once I will say that I was not disappointed. It has a clear user interface and good navigation on it. The platform is quite flexible and stands up for all your needs. TeamCity provides a good set of functions for a building of your project. Also you can control assembling the project and then test it. An excellent user guide, it is complete and understandable. Excellent acceptance tests, most of all I use them. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** Quite a complex system. Many settings for each project, this requires a lot of knowledge and time.

A large number of plug-ins help to significantly expand the functionality. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** At the beginning, the tool may seem a bit complicated, especially if you are a beginner. As for testing, it is not always possible to quickly interpret errors. Sometimes it is difficult to understand why the assembly broke. In addition, I would like to upgrade the interface. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** If you need the service ""all in one"" - then TeamCity - a godsend for you! This service is easy to configure and starts for a very short time. Simplicity of scalability. TeamCity is well suited for small companies, but it can also be used for a large company with an enhanced package. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** My team had a need to create one common environment for all applications with the possibility of simple integration.

Specially the vcs root settings. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Warehouse automated deployments became easy and swift ### 42.

Good for CI but has some snags **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brad W. | Principal Architect and Development Manager, Financial Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 07, 2017 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** Easy to install and configure Easy to use **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** Too frequent major updates, requiring IT time to re-setup. This is actually the biggest reason we are moving off of TeamCity. Also, it was not designed with security in mind. For example, the register user page is turned on by default, which is a huge security hole because it allows anyone to create an account. And putting this web app behind an HTTPS-only connection doesn't quite work because the administration pages are hard-coded to link to HTTP (very poor coding practice), so then user has to manually change address to HTTPS again and again. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** Try it out and be sure to evaluate what it is going to be like when there is a new major version every year, and also do a security risk analysis. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** We configure both CI builds and for deploys, for multiple environments. Most of the time it works very well so that we don't even have to think about it. ### 44. Versatile build server **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 28, 2018 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** Reliable, flexible, configurable build software. Good support for Maven Java build but we also use it for deployment and Docker builds. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** Probably as a derivative of all-inclusiveness and flexibility the GUI of the system is quite hard to use. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Building Java projects, continuous integration and deployment, building Docker images. ### 45. Simple to use **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 17, 2018 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** I like that team city is user friendly. I like that the builds are easy to access. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** There isn’t really too much that I don’t like about it. I do qa work so I am mostly just downloading new builds. **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Being able to have builds for multiple release versions. ### 46.

Outstanding service! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eduard K. | Front-end Web Developer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 27, 2016 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** TeamCity truly deserves to be called an "Intelligent CI server". No wonder why since it has so many amazing features such as detection of tool versions, testing frameworks support, code coverage, and static code analysis, etc. I thinks it is one of the best software out there that provides such a Continuous Integration server and Continuous Deployment platform at the same time. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** I can't really find anything I do not like about it. It is just so good from the beginning to the end. It provides our company with everything we need and more. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** Get your hands on TeamCity as soon as possible! ;-) **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** I cannot even fathom how else we would Integrate and deploy continuously our huge website without TeamCity. Our entire system depends on its high quality service. ### 49. A must have for development team **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Choong Seng C. | Solutions Architect (APAC), Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 30, 2016 **What do you like best about TeamCity?** TeamCity product is very stable and excellent in integration with TFS, it is very well engineered for developer in mind where each activity (build log) are extensively recorded and displayed with ease to navigate UI. **What do you dislike about TeamCity?** Some more refined TFS work item integration would be great, currently it only shows the 1st level of link to the TFS WI as issue list, but that doesn't go well with TFS Scrum template where WI is in hierarchical Feature/User Story/Task. **Recommendations to others considering TeamCity:** To further pair with Octopus Deploy for deployment **What problems is TeamCity solving and how is that benefiting you?** Uses TeamCity for automated Continuous Integration and Deployment for development team. It increases the quality of the deliverable where quality of code is being reported constantly. ### 50.
