	Jenkins	Travis CI
Considered Both Products	Open Source Jonathan Yu Software Engineer - OpenShift in Engineering at Red Hat (Computer Software, 5001-10,000 employees) Chose Jenkins Travis CI and AppVeyor are good services that provide rudimentary support for builds, but they focus on Linux/OSX and Windows respectively, meaning that cross-platform builds will need to use both services. They are free for open source projects on GitHub, so they are seen … Incentivized Helpful? Joshua Jordan Sr Systems Engineer in Engineering at Mercury (Computer Networking, 501-1000 employees) Chose Jenkins Overall, Jenkins is the easiest platform for someone who has no experience to come in and use effectively. We can get a junior engineer into Jenkins, give them access, and point them in the right direction with minimal hand-holding. The competing products I have used (TravisCI/G… Incentivized Helpful? Richard Rout Software Developer in Information Technology at Finmo (Computer Software, 1-10 employees) Chose Jenkins Originally Jenkins was selected because it was the best around, but it has since been outclassed by more specific services or cloud-based services and tools that will do all of the heavy lifting for you. Jenkins still has a use case - but it's hard to argue the additional … Incentivized Helpful? Dylan Cauwels Vice President in Engineering at Texas Inventionworks (Information Technology and Services, 11-50 employees) Chose Jenkins Jenkins is the only tool I would consider using for CTCI deployment. Its plugins make it easy to customize to any environment you can conjure up and will always be custom fit to your needs as a DevOps engineer. Other tools have better support but lack the customizability and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Jenkins Travis is on open source it provides great flexibility with github and open source projects. However, jenkins have more plugins available Incentivized Helpful? Josh Quint Lead AWS Systems Architect in Information Technology at Turing Group (Computer Software, 11-50 employees) Chose Jenkins Jenkins does a much better job of working with interpreted languages, and has a much larger plugin base. Incentivized Helpful? Yasmany Cubela Medina Development Team Lead in Information Technology at SPEERIT: The Ultimate Running Experience (Sports, 11-50 employees) Chose Jenkins Basically all those CI/CD tools provides the same set of tooling. SaaS solutions have a pre set pool of languages and containers you can use, but hey also are less flexible because they will not allow you to do advance configurations or setups you may need. With jenkins you have … Incentivized Helpful? Masudur Rahman Software Development Engineer in Engineering at IBM (Computer Software, 10,001+ employees) Chose Jenkins Jenkins is a bit more technically rigorous than either of the other products, but once you begin to dive deeper into the software, you'll quickly realize that this learning curve is worth it. It had more customization and interfaces with more software services than the other … Incentivized Helpful?	Travis CI Ryan Brewster Principal Software Engineer in Engineering at AKQA (Computer Software, 1-10 employees) Chose Travis CI Jenkins is probably the leading choice for automation and has loads of features and a large community behind it, but it can be overkill for many projects. It also has more of a web 1.0 look and interface. CircleCI is another similar big competitor, but cannot compete with Travis … Incentivized Helpful? Mathias Fonseca CTO in Information Technology (Computer Software, 1-10 employees) Chose Travis CI Jenkins is much more complicated to configure and start using. Although, one you have done that, it's extremely powerful and full of features. Maybe many more than Travis CI. As per TeamCity, I would never go back to using it. It's also complicated to configure but it is not … Incentivized Helpful? Eduardo Sampaio CTO in Information Technology at Jura Online (Internet, 11-50 employees) Chose Travis CI There are a few other options out there, CircleCI, Codeship and Wrecker would be a few good ones I can also recommend, each one has its particularity but I believe Travis has the best interface and flexibility of all of them. I'd recommend trying them all and seeing which one … Incentivized Helpful? Yasmany Cubela Medina Development Team Lead in Information Technology at SPEERIT: The Ultimate Running Experience (Internet, 1-10 employees) Chose Travis CI TravisCI is the first choice for open source projects. Incentivized Helpful? Kevin Patrick Westropp Software Engineer in Engineering at Egencia, an Expedia company (Investment Banking, 1-10 employees) Chose Travis CI Much easier to navigate web interface. Setup and configuration is much easier and straightforward via the yml config file. Incentivized Helpful? Jonathan Yu, P.Eng. Software Engineer - OpenShift in Engineering at Red Hat (Computer Software, 5001-10,000 employees) Chose Travis CI There are a number of alternatives to Travis CI, but Travis remains the most popular, since it was one of the first to show up. It has a lot of examples, support for building dozens of languages, and good documentation. Significant portions of the system are open source, so you … Incentivized Helpful?
