We currently use CruiseControl, but I recently downloaded Hudson and I am considering replacing CruiseControl with Hudson.
Hudson's configuration is probably not as flexible, but it is a heck of a lot easier to figure out. This means that when I am not here and something goes terribly wrong, someone else *might* be able to figure it out. Hudson seems more dependable too, but that may very well be based upon the machine I'm using. I like the display a lot better, and I think it is easier for developers to find pertinent information. Download it and try it out. It's pretty simple, you download the "hudson.war", then launch it as: $ java -jar hudson.war Hudson will be on port 8080. If you need a different port, add a "--httpPort=$HTTP_PORT" option to the command line. It took me about 10 minutes to set up a new build system using Hudson. Needless to say, I'm impressed.
