I've rarely worked on two projects that had the same CI set up. The difference is usually environmental. Every project has there own setup of tools, databases, other system and other products that need to be involved in the testing process. A hosted CI service attempts to commoditise the environment. So then you get stuck between a rock and a hard place. Either you do less in your build (bad) or you gain more control over the environment. That's often impossible in a corporate environment (which is where the biggest profit is likely to come from) because systems you need to integrate with are in a DMZ. It's also probably impractical for other scenarios because it's more effective to set up a CI product in an environment you already control.
