Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point

We are using Shippable to automate our CI/CD, so we (and our developers) can focus on our core business. Shippable has tremendously increased our product and features delivery by at least three times. The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug…

Build management system used to successfully create full request tests and run security scans

I find the TeamCity backend easily accessible. Users can login to the Linux servers that TeamCity is installed on and perform operations. Also I find the ability to template solutions using the meta runner a good feature as well as the user management feature. There is a display that shows which user made recent changes to a branch on GitHub, including the time the changes were made and the particular agent that ran the job. This is also a very useful feature. The metrics and audit available for projects, pipelines and jobs come in handy when debugging.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point with the additional pipelines making it more interesting to see what is happening across your development process in a single pane of glass."

"The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug with any of our favorite tools."

"It is very easy to use, and its speed is impressive, allowing the code to be ready for production in seconds."

"TeamCity is very useful due to the fact that it has a strong plug-in system."

"VCS Trigger: Provides excellent source control support."

"One of the most beneficial features for us is the flexibility it offers in creating deployment steps tailored to different technologies."

"It's easy to move to a new release because of templates and meta-runners, and agent pooling."

"TeamCity's GUI is nice."

"TeamCity is a very user-friendly tool."

"The most valuable aspect of the solution is its easy configuration. It also has multiple plugins that can be used especially for building .net applications."

More TeamCity pros

Cons

"They could work on reducing the number of permissions required while using Bitbucket."

"The integration between other solutions and TeamCity could be smoother."

"I would suggest creating simple and advanced configurations. Advanced configurations will give more customizations like Jenkins does."

"If TeamCity could create more out of the box solutions to make it more user friendly and create more use cases, that would be ideal."

"I would like to see an improvement where TeamCity alerts us via email or another medium if there are discrepancies between the code in the staging environment and what has been deployed to production, such as missing updates."

"It will benefit this solution if they keep up to date with other CI/CD systems out there."

"REST API support lacks many features in customization of builds, jobs, and settings."

"I need some more graphical design."

"The UI for this solution could be improved. New users don't find it easy to navigate. The need some level of training to understand the ins and the outs."

More TeamCity cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is the cheapest compared to the other platforms out there."

"The licensing is on an annual basis."

"Start with the free tier for a few build configs and see how it works for you, then according to your scale find the enterprise license which fits you the most."

I generally find TeamCity a lot more intuitive than Jenkins.

Moving to TeamCity from Jenkins At work, we’re slowly migrating from Jenkins to TeamCity in the hope of ending some of our recurring problems with continuous integration. My use of Jenkins prior to this job has been almost strictly on a personal basis, although I pretty much only use Travis…
