Easy to use and works right away
There are aspects of Nx that could be improved, particularly the desktop interface, which I find quite unappealing, mostly in black and white. I used Nx in the past on an older Mac, and it seemed more accessible then. The challenge lies in the small space and difficulties in saving. If these issues can be addressed, Nx could become a more user-friendly and effective solution. In the future, to improve Nx, I think enhancing the partition manager in TDE would be beneficial. Currently, it lacks features like specifying the Mount Point, which is important for organizing the root and other directories. The Nx Partition Manager does a decent job, but there is room for improvement. Additionally, it would be great if the installation process could provide more details on what Nx is doing, especially regarding networking setups.

Versatile agent support boosts builds but UI and setup costs need refinement
TeamCity's user interface could be improved; specifically, the tree structure on the homepage is not clear, making it difficult to search for projects. Moreover, there are some limitations related to the version we were using. For instance, there were issues with agent specifications for particular build jobs and a timeout issue where jobs running longer than three hours would fail automatically.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I really like Nx because it is easy to use and works right away."
"Time to deployment has been reduced in situations where we want to deploy to production or deploy breaking changes."
"It provides repeatable CI/CD throughout our company with lots of feedback on failures and successes to the intended audiences via email and Slack."
"Good integration with IDE and JetBrains products."
"It's easy to move to a new release because of templates and meta-runners, and agent pooling."
"We would like to see better integration with other version controls, since we encountered difficulty when this we first attempted."
"The flexibility of TeamCity allows it to fit in workflows that I have yet to imagine."
"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."
"TeamCity is more structured and user-friendly than other vendors."
 

Cons

"There are aspects of Nx that could be improved, particularly the desktop interface, which I find quite unappealing, mostly in black and white."
"If there was more documentation that was easier to locate, it would be helpful for users."
"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."
"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."
"The integration between other solutions and TeamCity could be smoother."
"REST API support lacks many features in customization of builds, jobs, and settings."
"It will benefit this solution if they keep up to date with other CI/CD systems out there."
"Last time I used it, dotnet compilation had to be done via PowerShell scripts. There was actually a lot that had to be scripted."
"I would suggest creating simple and advanced configurations. Advanced configurations will give more customizations like Jenkins does."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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…
