List of Continuous Integration services

Introduction
There are a lot of cloud continuous integration services. All of them have a different set of functionalities, some of them require payment, some of them are for free. I have created a list of such services to make an easy comparison of them and choose a more suitable one for you.
Some of the CI services have open source code thus you can set them up in standalone mode. Pay attention to the column “Features”.
There is a similar comparison on Wikipedia.
