What’s the most underrated CI tool

I’ve been diving deep into CI tools lately and I’m curious about what everyone thinks is the most underrated one. I feel like Jenkins gets all the love, but tools like CircleCI have some hidden gems that make deployment so smooth. What’s your go-to for continuous integration that maybe doesn’t get enough attention?

I think Bitbucket Pipelines often gets overlooked. It integrates so seamlessly if you’re already using Bitbucket, and I’d say it makes setting up CI/CD pretty painless. Have you tried it?

Totally agree about CircleCI’s hidden gems — their workflows can really streamline deployment. Has anyone tried using it with Docker?

I get what you mean about Jenkins hogging the spotlight. Have you tried GitLab CI? It’s super integrated, but it feels like it gets lost in the conversation sometimes.
