Saves time for developers, which saves money for the company
I have specific licenses regarding running third-party applications. We are not using IncrediBuild in Visual Studio at all. We are not using it for C++ or compiling. We are using it for running a third-party application, which is our application, where we do automatic generation of code. I am in…

Build management system used to successfully create full request tests and run security scans
We use it for running unit tests for merge requests on github. We also use it to build executable artifacts and also for running security scans Time to deployment has been reduced. It has helped in preventing us from deploying breaking changes into production. If the pipelines are configured…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is saving time for developers, which is saving money for the company."
"It provides repeatable CI/CD throughout our company with lots of feedback on failures and successes to the intended audiences via email and Slack."
"TeamCity is very useful due to the fact that it has a strong plug-in system."
"We would like to see better integration with other version controls, since we encountered difficulty when this we first attempted."
"TeamCity's GUI is nice."
"Using TeamCity and emailing everyone on fail is one way to emphasize the importance of testing code and showing management why taking the time to test actually does saves time from having to fix bugs on the other end."
"One of the most beneficial features for us is the flexibility it offers in creating deployment steps tailored to different technologies."
"TeamCity is a very user-friendly tool."
"VCS Trigger: Provides excellent source control support."
 

Cons

"Stability could be improved. I don't know the reason for the instability because there are no logs that help me to understand the problem."
"The upgrade process could be smoother. Upgrading major versions can often cause some pain."
"The integration between other solutions and TeamCity could be smoother."
"Integrating with certain technologies posed challenges related to time and required support from the respective technology teams to ensure smooth integration with TeamCity."
"We've called TeamCity tech support. Unfortunately, all their tech support is based in Europe, so we end up with such a big time crunch that I now need to have one person in the US."
"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."
"REST API support lacks many features in customization of builds, jobs, and settings."
"If there was more documentation that was easier to locate, it would be helpful for users."
"Their online documentation is fairly extensive, but sometimes you can end up navigating in circles to find answers. I would like them (or partner with someone)​ to provide training classes to help newcomers get things up and running more quickly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing and licensing are annoying. Every year, I need to renew. If I miss the deadline date, all my processes will stop working. So, I would prefer that I wouldn't need to renew every year, instead have another solution for it. Or, if we could have an enterprise license agreement with the company, then the development team wouldn't need to spend time renewing licenses."
"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…
