Currently in my job i use QTP and it so far atleast can handle pretty much anything we throw at it both on the UI and it has a special mode for testing non gui services allowing us to check both and help us narrow down where some problems occur when we change the system. It is in my opinion very configurable and the inclusion of vbscript as its language allows integration with lots and lots of things on windows to allow you to do pretty much anything you want! For instance we use it to control the excel com object to make custom excel reports of success and failure so the format of the results is the same wether a test was run manually and also on another project used the adodb object to check that when a page submits information to the database that the database contains the correct data for that record!
As for integration into the build process i have not tried this myself but it is possible to launch qtp and a test from a vbs file so i would assume this should be fairly trvial as ms tools tend to allow you to run vbs files pretty easily from most tools.
I would reccomend it to anyone assuming you can get someone to buy the license!
