Case Study: Fluxys cuts build ownership costs and speeds ROI for NuGet consumables with JetBrains TeamCity

Fluxys - Customer Case Study

Fluxys, a Belgian natural gas transmission and storage operator active in North-Western Europe, needed a cost-effective way to automate builds for shared libraries and reusable components delivered via NuGet. They found TFS expensive and hard to customize—requiring specialist knowledge and effort—so they evaluated ownership costs and ease of use when comparing TFS to TeamCity.

They chose TeamCity for consumables because it has out‑of‑the‑box NuGet package creation/publishing, flexible build steps and simple scripting, and easy integration via TeamCity Service Messages for custom test reporting. Running TeamCity side‑by‑side with TFS (which remains for consumers and work‑item/data‑warehouse needs) delivered faster ROI and lower operational cost, with a few integration and proxy/NuGet hiccups that were mostly resolved.
