### "Easy setup and fair cost ci/cd tools for the mobile projects. "

May 31, 2024

5.0

We are happy with Appcirle. We are used to the other competitors but Appcircle is more optimized for mobile projects while the competitors are general ci/cd products.

Pros

Easy setup, Free tier for the POC status, Documentation, and Fast updates for development tools like XCode.

Cons

User Interface and dark mode, Advanced Settings

Reason for choosing Appcircle

Appcircle's documentation was very good. It is more optimized for the mobile projects.

### "All-in-one for mobile DevOps"

March 13, 2024

5.0

DevOps dynamics of mobile projects are different than Backend DevOps. Mac OS management, mobile certificate management, testing distribution, store publishing, etc. If your mobile projects are important and you have frequent releases, I recommend Appcircle.

Pros

A platform developed for Mobile DevOps and supporting all the features needed for Mobile DevOps.

Cons

Not a suitable platform for Java/.NET DevOps.

### "Easy to use"

March 18, 2024

4.0

Pros

Workflow is intuitive and easy to design. Registering and specifying certificates for apps is also easy. There is an enterprise app store. This is ideal for in-house app distribution with IdP integration.

Cons

Documentation is lacking compared to the competition. For example, I could not find details about the operating environment for inline scripts. It seems that the workflow can work with many third parties, but more explanation would have been nice.

### "A worthy CI/CD tool"

September 23, 2020

5.0

I tried several mobile CI/CD tools in an enterprise setting and I found Appcircle to be the best in terms of experience and the flexibility. This is how any CI/CD tool should be like, not just for mobile CI/CD. Compared to its cost, you get extremely high value out of the product. The product is generous even in smaller plans. I also like its maintenance-free approach. The tool is always kept up to date and it is like set up and forget. Automation works seamlessly as advertised.

Pros

It can solve all of our mobile CI/CD needs like application builds, signing and deployment easily. The experience is great and the flexibility is much higher than expected. We can set up our enterprise pipelines easily and then in a way forget about it. Appcircle takes care of everything automatically. Their customer support is also worthwhile.

Cons

Even though even its free plan is more generous than the competitors, you may feel the need to upgrade to higher plans for more complex projects.

### "The Best in The Market"

February 6, 2021

5.0

Appcircle definitely brings you efficiency. Once you configure it properly, you don't even need to log in again. It basically does the job under the hood without making any noise. You don't even feel like you use a tool for what Appcircle does. Only after you set it up, you feel how much your time was wasted for redundant work before. It is definitely a 'must' for mobile app developers regardless of how many people you have in the team. I honestly think eventually all the developers will have to use such a tool because of the undeniable benefits it offers.

Pros

It is both easy to use and functional. Once you log in, you can easily figure out what to do and how you should set yourself while not sacrificing on functionality. There are many tools around which offer either functionality or ease of use but not both at the same time. Appcircle is the one you should go with.

Cons

Types of roles among team members can be more diverse.

Reason for choosing Appcircle

Appcircle is specifically designed for mobile DevOps. This makes it better than generic DevOps tools when it comes to mobile app development. The reason why Appcircle is better than the other mobile DevOps tools is that it seems it is designed based on the pain points the other mobile DevOps tools possess. They seem to already know what the others had done wrong and they created the tool accordingly. This also brings newer technology and more sophisticated architecture behind the scenes. If you need a solution that will serve you in the future too, this is it.

### "Title A game-changer for enterprise mobile CI"

September 17, 2020

5.0

Our initial impressions on the platform are highly positive and we are looking forward to the growth of its enterprise community. Appcircle's enterprise focus makes a difference.

Pros

Many of the enterprises like ours can't use the cloud-based mobile CI tools due to security restrictions regarding keys and repositories. Other mobile CI tools don't provide a solution for this purpose and the traditional CI tools require too much effort and customization for mobile app pipelines. Appcircle makes a difference by providing enterprise deployment options. Keeping all of our development assets and the mobile CI/CD environment internal provides peace of mind. Plus, it's easier to use than many of the CI tools we tried.

Cons

The recommended way of deployment is via Kubernetes and not all enterprises are really adept on cloud-native apps. It would be great if they can provide some alternative enterprise deployment options.

### "Great Tool for App Developers"

March 11, 2021

5.0

Appcircle is a great tool for app developers no matter how big their teams are. It definitely makes a huge difference on your app development process. It works best once you set it end to end.

Pros

Appcircle takes the burden of spending your time on cumbersome and redundant work. Big enterprises may not realize if their mobile team works inefficiently however if you don’t have abundant resources then you need to benefit from Appcircle’s capabilities. Cost of using it is much less than the advantages it brings.

Cons

Appcircle is a relatively new tool which shouldn’t intimidate you at all. Even if you didn’t hear about it too much before, you will surely hear it more often in the future.

### "It sped up my mobile development process by 40 percent"

February 8, 2025

5.0

It is easy to use and offers many options.

Pros

### "The best "Mobile DevOps" Tool I've used."

March 5, 2024

5.0

The availability of a self-hosted solution for regulated companies was the reason we preferred it. Since we started using the platform, we fell in love with the product. We are planning to try the private cloud solution soon.

Pros

The technical support for self-hosted is great. We have seamlessly integrated our Flutter applications into our pipeline processes without any difficulty. The experience with Signing Identities Management is very easy. Having an Enterprise App Store for our QA team has made us more agile

Cons

It has no cons, we really enjoy using it. The dashboard experience could be improved in the next versions

### "Good Solution for Your Problems"

March 11, 2021

5.0

Appcircle is a great tool for your app development process. It eliminates many errors and makes many of your work organized and automated. Cloud builds are highly robust to environmental errors and Appcircle brings vital consistency there. By using it, you have more time for the core business which is developing the app itself rather than dealing with human or environmental errors. It is especially crucial tool if you work in teams.

Pros

Highly stable and robust. Also, always up to date. You don’t need to do anything for new Xcode version since Appcircle does it for you immediately after new Xcode version is released. It takes so much of this worthless work away and makes you focus on the part of the effort that brings value to your business.

Cons

Using such a tool requires some getting used to. Developers who do everything by themselves may not mentally be ready to leave redundant work behind.

March 5, 2024

5.0

Pros

Appcircle is really easy to use CI/CD tool. We have managing 50+ apps in an automatic pipeline thanks to Appcircle.

Cons

A lot of investment should be made for their dashboard UI. I encountered minor UI-related issues in all features.

### "Key Player in App Building"

May 18, 2021

5.0

Appcircle builds your app much more conveniently than any other tool. It integrates with many tools that you are likely to be using. So once you figure out how to use it, it will be a key player in your app development process. It will keep doing the job for you while you are forgetting that it even exists.

Pros

Appcircle is highly customizable. Although it offers many prebuilt workflow steps while building the app, it also works with custom scripts which can basically do anything you want. So no matter how various the tools you use, you can make Appcircle work for you.

Cons

The more tools you use, the more integrations you need to set in Appcircle. So the time it takes to fully carry your projects is highly dependent on the variety and the quantity of the tools you use.

### "Improve our development and testing process significantly"

August 27, 2020

5.0

Pros

We like the emulator the most. It allows us to test on different version and platform easily. Our developers, UX and tester can't do without this.

Cons

Our testers do have some issues running automation scripts with the simulator but it was resolved with the customer support. Great!

### "Excellent product for Flutter devs"

February 14, 2024

5.0

Working with Appcircle has been a great experience. The support team, the ease of use, integrations, pre-defined workflow steps, easy setup and extensive documentation makes this product special.

Pros

I am amazed with the support. I can get answers to my questions on Slack almost immediately. The documentation is good enough to start with. The product has all the features you would expect from a CI/CD tool. The setup is very easy and straighforward.

Cons

It is hard to find a real thing that I like the least, but I believe for Flutter apps, managing the Android and iOS apps could have been more combined. Currently they seem like two separate projects, and indeed they are separate projects and managing these projects are still ok, but when you have more than one Flutter project it would have been better to see the projects more grouped.

Reason for choosing Appcircle

The pricing options were easy to estimate the cost, and the support team looked promising.

### "Best App For Mobile DevOps"

Setting up enterprise pipelines is a breeze, allowing for effortless management delegation. Appcircle's seamless automation streamlines our processes, backed by consistently commendable customer support.

### "Exactly What Your Clients Need"

March 31, 2021

5.0

Appcircle changed the way we worked significantly. If you are an agency with lots of apps built for lots of clients using lots of certificates, Appcircle is exactly what you need. It will make your projects much more organized. It can build your app in the background with a simple trigger, send it to your testers automatically and even upload it to the store. You will also be able to present the progress to your clients with Appcircle’s emulator which only takes 1 simple URL link to connect with almost any browser.

Pros

Appcircle takes away the pain of dealing with many things at the same time. You can create different organizations for different apps with different certificates and provisioning profiles and keep track of all with it. It’s centralized tool that any app development agency needs.

Cons

If you want to fully benefit from it, you will need to spend some time to create different teams for apps, determine the test groups and upload the certificates accordingly. This is an understandable effort and you won’t regret after that. However, it will still require you to allocate space in the sprint plan.

March 4, 2024

This was the third ci/cd tool I used. I can easily say that AppCircle has the easiest integration process. Build logger can be improved.

Pros

Easy implementation and configuration, sufficient support, reasonable price.

Cons

With the latest improvements, the problem has disappeared, but before, we rarely experienced not responding logger.

### "Undeniably Beneficial Tool"

April 15, 2021

5.0

Appcircle is definitely a tool that you can benefit from. It helps you make your app development process much more productive with the various services it offers. You can build you app or share a prebuilt app with your testers or upload it to stores or do them all at the same time, automatically! You don’t need to deal with many things you normally think you should. Appcircle shows you what you are wasting your time on. Just configure it well with the help of their customer support team and watch how much you are tapping into it.

Pros

You don’t need to have many devices to test your app or Macs to build it. Appcircle has them both. You can’t imagine how much money and time you save because of it.

Cons

By nature, cloud builds are slower than local builds although it is not Appcircle’s fault. Still it doesn’t really affect you since you can automatically build your app with the triggers without blocking any Mac.

### "The Solution You Should Get"

April 16, 2021

5.0

Every mobile app development team should tap into a tool like Appcircle. The conventional CI/CD tools are much less convenient for mobile app development. Appcircle gives you the option to build your app, share it with testers and see it on emulator. You don’t need separate tools to do all these. It also takes the burden of managing your keystores, provisioning profiles and certificates. Now you don’t need to worry about their expiration dates.

Pros

Appcircle has everything what other tools have. Additionally, there are signing identity management and emulator/simulator. Appcircle still has room for improvement even though it is not lacking anything.

Cons

Carrying your project to such a tool is hard thing to do. However, Appcircle is very easy to figure out. They also provide onboarding sessions to help you get running.

The convenience of Appcircle is awesome, I love how it integrates ease of use and variety of tools. Once you use everything you need, you will feel so good by everything you can do.

Pros

I love how customizable this software is. I love how user friendly it is, how clean and aesthetically pleasing it is for my eyes. I love all about this app and the best of all is that is accomplished what it promises.

Cons

I do not have any flaw to state. Definitely I consider this software to be very awesome and fluid. I love everything about it, it does not have anything wrong.

### "The best CI/CD tool for startups"

August 26, 2020

5.0

The product provides everything it promises and I can recommend it for startups based on hands-on experience. The productivity and the tracibility gains are indeed visible.

Pros

Working with many different startups, I had the chance to observe many different tools and use cases and I can confidently say that Appcircle combines the best features of other mobile CI tools in the market. It is easy to configure but also flexible. This is very important for startups that can't afford a dedicated DevOps resource. Any mobile developer can use the tool in a productive way.

Cons

Appcircle is a new product, so it took me a little convincing to have some of my mentee startups to try it out. Fortunately, it didn't let me down until now. Also, the free tier can be made a bit more generous.

### "Real Cost Saver"

May 18, 2021

5.0

Appcircle is an amazing tool for reducing costs. You will either hire DevOps engineers for your team or get Appcircle which works like a DevOps expert but with much less salary. If you don’t want to throw your money away after cumbersome hiring process, Appcircle is the remedy.

Pros

Compared to costs it brings, it offers much bigger advantages as if you hired a team with a salary even lower than an employee’s. So you can save a lot of money with Appcircle.

Cons

It will take some time to fully set it up. However, it is much easier than dealing with that work by yourself or hiring someone to do that.

### "An indispensable tool for mobile DevOps"

September 21, 2020

5.0

I am satisfied with Appcircle in general with how it made mobile app build and distribution easier for us. I am also happy with its cross-platform support for Flutter.

Pros

Setting up a pipeline for mobile apps is indeed easy with Appcircle. I can automate pretty much everything after the code and it can handle cross-platform builds too. It's like just click and build but you can also do advanced configuration with the workflows. It is a breeze to use the workflow editor with its surprisingly efficient design.

Cons

It takes a while to get used to an established CI/CD discipline with the developers being used to do things on their own. The platform doesn't allow cutting corners. It's not so good for the developers, but great for the managers.

### "Exactly What You Need for Best Practices"

March 29, 2021

5.0

Appcircle showed me how far we were from best practices when it comes to app development. It literally makes you feel guilty for not using it before. You can’t imagine how easier the things with Appcircle. I specifically recommend getting their enterprise plan with customer success support in order to get to best practices as close and soon as possible.

Pros

It is very well-designed tool that offers so much potential for future even though it is already solid and working as intended. Developers of Appcircle seemed to have analyzed the pain points of app development properly before creating this tool.

Cons

Since it is a modern tool, it doesn’t offer prebuilt Xamarin or other older framework workflows. You should use customs scripts for that which is supported by Appcircle with Ruby and Bash.
