CircleCI Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Senior Technical Consultant UI at Adobe4.5I highly recommend CircleCI for its excellent automation of GitHub to AWS deployments, saving much time and manual effort. It's stable, scalable, and easy to set up, surpassing Jenkins, though its documentation needs simplification.
Open Shift Engineer at Dhanyaayai enterprise private limited4.5I use CircleCI for CI/CD, microservices, and deployments, appreciating its ease of use, YAML configuration, and stability. It delivers excellent ROI through faster time to market and improved productivity, though it could benefit from optimized caching and better orb utilization.
Software Engineer at a tech services company with 51-200 employees4.5I value CircleCI for its automated delivery, especially orbs and Docker caching, which significantly improve workflow, speed, and code quality. It's stable and scalable, providing strong ROI by saving developer time. My main concerns are complex pricing and potential UI clutter.
DevOps Engineer at Elevenxcapital3.5I use CircleCI to build multi-arch Docker images, push to ECR, and deploy to Kubernetes across branches, with Slack alerts. Parallel jobs and SaaS simplicity speed CI/CD and scale well, but it’s expensive and YAML configs get complex.
Managing Technical Consultant - Solution Architect at NTT DATA3.0I've used CircleCI for five years to automate CI/CD pipelines, benefiting from its speed, flexibility, and dashboards, but I find pricing unclear and see room for AI-driven YAML generation and improved security and job management.
SRE coordinator at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees3.0I’ve used CircleCI for two years as our main deployment pipeline due to its strong GitHub integration, but its Orbs are complex, and while stable and scalable, it’s costly and hasn’t shown clear ROI yet.
SRE at Akamai4.0I've used CircleCI for about a year to build and deploy our GoLang application on AWS. It's stable, scalable, and fast, with helpful modules and workflows. The documentation is solid, and the free tier met our needs.
Cloud Engineering and Automation Engineer at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees4.0I use CircleCI for CI/CD, valuing its user-friendliness, GitHub integration, and multi-stage pipelines, surpassing Jenkins. It greatly improved efficiency and reduced manual effort. More cloud integrations and security features are desired, but its strong ROI is clear.
