I evaluated concourse CI and I was impressed by the concept.

Pros - Setup was really easy.(I didn't use bosh). - Both server and build pipeline configuration (Yaml file) are easy to backup and recreate.

Cons - When I evaluated it , it had a few bugs which forced me to restart the server almost daily to keep it working. It should be more stable now.

Did your evaluation happen a long time ago? Or, another question... did you run the binaries and appropriately screen them? I had the same problem until I realized I sucked at making a binary live a long time, and my eyes were opened to screen :)

It was a known bug in the some go library. It was recently fixed. But at the time it caused concourse to stop working until restarted.

Never run long running services in screen. Use a proper init system - screen is not the solution.
