Con
Reports tons of noisy, irrelevant "quality" metrics
You want code coverage, not someone to tell you where to put semicolons in your markdown documents. It spots dozens of "issues" in your code and Markdown sources, none of which are in any way valid, most of which were random opinions from people with no justification and not accepted best practices. (In fairness, on the Python side, this was due largely to Pylint itself being way too prescriptive.)

Tons of features, plugins to check code
The list is never ending: they use a lot of open sourced linters for many different languages, allowing to configure them one by one, add custom rules... It checks duplicates, issues, security AND is customizable.

Con
Can't handle combined coverage
When there are multiple environments that contribute coverage to different branches it just picks one at random and says that the rest of the code isn't covered at all.

Con
API Tokens need to be hard coded
Most CIs have options for that in safe environment variables, but that makes it unavailable in PRs anyways. The support says they're working on it.

Your own server, your intellectual property
You don't trust a third party service to host your IP? Host your own server, at no cost (every cloud provider will host your server freely for the first year).

Distributed references
The code coverage "references" are the previous measurements of code coverage. These references are distributed: all the team members can share the references in the same way they share the source code.

Often codecov.io URL returns 504 or 503 errors to the build scripts resulting in failed CI builds. Downtime is never reflected in their status page.

Grouping Coverage Reports
Codecov groups coverage reports to isolate coverage metrics. For example: unittest vs functional. Learn more here.

Node package doesn't support piped input
Most Node coverage uploaders allow you to pipe directly from a coverage tool into the coverage uploader, but Codecov seems to require that coverage is written to a file.

Maturity
Coveralls is older than Code Climate and already supports 21 languages. It also seems like it's the most popular given how new some of the other services are, which is great for support.

No support for common coverage report stadards
They accept their own format over their own HTTP API. Other services allow the uploading of standard reporting formats and parse them internally.
