Likelihood to Recommend While deploying docker images on kubernetes pods I must say Codefresh helped me a lot. It has made my work easy as an Automation tool. I can setup a simple pipelines to automate my build for kubernetes. but for more complex pipelines Codefresh need some improvement
Read full review TeamCity is very quick and straightforward to get up and running. A new server and a handful of agents could be brought online in easily under an hour. The professional tier is completely free, full-featured, and offers a huge amount of growth potential. TeamCity does exceptionally well in a small-scale business or enterprise setting.
Read full review Pros Continuous Integration and Continuous Development. we can setup jobs that automatically triggered when there is any changes in code and starts building up the build images automatically and then pushing images to Container Registry We can involve Version control system like github, bitbucket, gitlab etc for integration of Codefresh with our code stored in these Version control systems. On the failure of any jobs/pipeline Codefresh can also send Notification on our email. Read full review TeamCity provides a great integration with git, especially Bitbucket. When a new code release (build) fails TeamCity has a great tool for investigation and troubleshooting. TeamCity provides a user-friendly interface. While some technical knowledge is required to use TeamCity, the design helps simply things. Read full review Cons With Codefresh it's become hard to handle complex pipelines Need to focus more on Documentation part UI can be more attractive Security can be more increased Read full review The customization is still fairly complex and is best managed by a dev support team. There is great flexibility, but with flexibility comes responsibility. It isn't always obvious to a developer how to make simple customizations. Sometimes the process for dealing with errors in the process isn't obvious. Some paths to rerunning steps redo dependencies unnecessarily while other paths that don't are less obvious. Read full review Performance TeamCity runs really well, even when sharing a small instance with other applications. The user interface adequately conveys important information without being overly bloated, and it is snappy. There isn't any significant overhead to build agents or unit test runners that we have measured.
Read full review Alternatives Considered It's very scalable It is cost effective It easily get integrated with third party tools It easily get integrated with Kubernetes Docker.
Read full review TeamCity is a great on-premise Continuous Integration tool. Visual Studio Team Services (
VSTS ) is a hosted SAAS application in Microsoft's Cloud.
VSTS is a Source Code Repository, Build and Release System, and Agile Project Management Platform - whereas TeamCity is a Build and Release System only. TeamCity's interface is easier to use than
VSTS , and neither have a great deployment pipeline solution. But
VSTS 's natural integration with Microsoft products, Microsoft's Cloud, Integration with Azure Active Directory, and free, private, Source Code repository - offer additional features and capabilities not available with Team City alone.

Read full review Return on Investment Positive: As an Automation tools I must say it has reduced manual labour , reduced errors and improved quality of work. It easily get integrated with third party tools which increases ease ness in our work Negative: Although being a very good tools in CI/CD It requires improvement in UI, it's speed, security, optimization. Read full review TeamCity has greatly improved team efficiency by streamlining our production and pre-production pipelines. We moved to TeamCity after seeing other teams have more success with it than we had with other tools. TeamCity has helped the reliability of our product by easily allowing us to integrate unit testing, as well as full integration testing. This was not possible with other tools given our corporate firewall. TeamCity's ability to include Docker containers in the pipeline steps has been crucial in improving our efficiency and reliability. Read full review ScreenShots
