It's easy to use for easy things. Fortunately most of what I do is easy. It's harder to do harder things but in most cases it is possible to work within the constraints of the system. The documentation is pretty good once you figure out where it is. ...

The flexibility of the framework. When one thinks of it in a framework vs a product, Buildbot becomes much more. Design and use the framework to fit you needs
