Thanks Mark and Craig for your quick responses.

First of all, my company needs a free version. I do understand, that
Cruise is free uptill two agents. What exactly a agent is doing in
Cruise?

Mark, what did you mean by "CCNet does not provide distributed build"?
Does that mean that many builds running concurrently?
If yes, this is not the requirement in my case. We have worked very
well with queued builds in CCNet uptil now. Also, security is also not
our priority.
So, do you think, there is no need to go to Cruise, when CCnet is
sufficing our needs?

Thanks.
