No offense but I feel like I'm being dishonestly marketed to from your landing page
The biggest thing is the tagline is "Simple, free version control" but after checking your pricing (which is buried in the footer) you have tiered pricing just like everyone else in this space, albeit with a different pricing scheme. Obviously it costs money to run and I would never expect a service like this to be completely free, but why pretend like your differentiator is being free?
Another smaller thing is your 100% SLA. Clicking through to the fine print again, you offer 5% of the cost back per 30 min downtime per month. 30 min per month is "only" between 3 & 4 nines (plus even if you miss that you only refund 5% of the cost not a full refund so it's a pretty soft promise anyway). As with the price I have no problem with the actual SLA, 99.95% uptime seems reasonable, I just feel like you're trying to trick me as someone coming to your site.
Makes sense, I get that getting the product right for the first customers is the top priority. Just wanted to share my initial reaction. Good luck with the service.
I was pretty confused and intrigued by "instant deployments" as well.
If you go to their help docs, you can see that they can integrate directly with a few services (digital ocean and another that I can't remember) to "instantly deploy" your app.
Too bad it will never work with CodeClimate, Travis-Ci, etc. We have many Git hosting sites to choose from; but the reality is that few 3rd party sites integrate with anything other than Github.
If they mirror the Github API, it's certainly possible. That's been the key to Gitlab's wide adoption -- Gitlab is compatible with both CodeClimate and Travis-CI.
