GitLab Reviews

We use Gitlab for CICD work. 

Git hosting has an integration with ACD which is why we liked this solution in the first place.

This solution could be improved by adding modifications such as slack notifications.

I have been using this solution for four years.

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution although the CICD may be tricky to scale. 

I have previously used Bit Bucket and Github. Bit Bucket has some issues in our country. At the time we had banning issues within our government and only GitLab was. Bit Bucket is too slow and we had to wait for five minutes just to enter the platform. 

Bit Bucket pipelines are not that easy to consider and it was harder to use than GitLab. Gitlab is also more customizable. GitHub is more expensive than GitLab and didn't offer CICD. 

The initial setup is straightforward. 

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten. 

We primarily use this solution for end-to-end CI/CD solutioning and deployment as well as infrastructure, architect and environmental management. In addition, we plan to use it for version control and SaaS solutioning and have heard it is great.

The SaaS setup is impressive, and it has DAST solutioning. It also has dependency check and scanning mechanisms. If we were using other solutions, they would have to be configured, and we would have to set them us as a third party, but GitLab is straightforward. GitLab is a single solution that helps us do everything we need.

The documentation in GitLab could be improved a bit. For example, their RBAC is role-based access, which is fine but not very good. It could also be improved a lot.

We have been using this solution for almost seven years. We are currently using version 15.2.1. We are using GitLab Cloud, and it is a public setup.

It is a stable solution, and we have not experienced any challenges.

It is scalable, but we need to pay extra costs.

The technical support is good, but it is available with paid solutions only. So we have to rely on their documentation or wait for community updates for the free tier or vendor solution.

It is a cloud solution, so we didn't have to do much. We just needed to create an account, and the solution was ready. It is gitlab.com.

I rate this solution an eight out of ten because it is a good tool.

I am using GitLab for code management, such as code cloning, and code-to-data.

The most valuable feature of GitLab is its convenience. I am able to trace back most of my changes up to a far distance in time and it helps me to analyze and see the older version of the code.

The user interface could be more user-friendly. We do most of our operations through the website interface but it could be better.

I have been using GitLab for approximately three years.

I rate the stability of GitLab an eight out of ten.

I rate the scalability of GitLab an eight out of ten.

We have more than 1,000 developer users using this solution in my organization.

We have an internal administrator if we need help with the solution, I have not contacted GitLab for support.

I have used previously CVS. Both CVS and GitLab have their advantages and disadvantages. GitLab is in the cloud and can be accessed anywhere which is very flexible. For the functionality, I am not certain about the differences. I find them both to be good solutions.

I would recommend this solution to others that are doing code management.

I rate GitLab a seven out of ten.

GitLab is a platform that facilitates hosting, collaboration and version control. We also make use of its pipeline capabilities. 

It is a speedy platform compared to the others I have used. I have also enjoyed using the platform as this solution offers a good user experience. 

We are currently using Atlasian Bitbucket, Jira and Confluence. Atlassian offers more products than GitLab. GitLab offers source control management, version control and collaboration between developers. Atlassian offers features on top of this as well as more integration points for developers.

I have used Gitlab for two months. 

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

The configuration of Gitlab is straightforward. There is no site deployment of GitLab needed on behalf of the end user, especially if they are using the cloud version. 

GitLab's pricing is good compared to others on the market. 

If we compare the GitLab repositories to GitHub, GitHub has many issues since being acquired by Microsoft. GitLab is more independent and offers a better user experience compared to GitHub. Gitlab is easy to manage and is a good example of the Git-based collaboration tools.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten. 

We are using GitLab for managing our code. We have created branches and posted code, and as our team members complete assignments, the code is pushed to there.

The best thing is that as the developers work on separate tasks, all of the code goes there and the other team members don't have to wait on each other to finish. We can all work on our code in tandem.

The documentation could be improved to help newcomers better understand things like creating new branches. 

The company has been using GitLab for a year and a half, and I have been using it for between eight and nine months.

GitLab is a stable solution.

It is easy to scale with GitLab. We can do work on virtual machines, pushing the code there and working with it.

I have not had contact with technical support. Rather, I relied on the other developers for assistance.

We previously used BitBucket, but we have transferred everything to GitLab. Everything that BitBucket can do is available in GitLab.

In summary, this is a very good product and everything is working well. I would recommend it.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

We are a startup company working on a new firewall product, and we use GitLab as part of the software development process.

I see this product as an investment. It speeds up our development, it's faster, safer, and more convenient. We know that all of your information is going to be in the same place and you can do what you want.

The most valuable feature of GitLab is the level of control that it offers. I have more control over everything.

I would like to see better integration with project management tools such as Jira. I know that integration does exist for some, but it can be better. In the future, I would like to be able to add what I want.

I have been using GitLab for one year.

This product is fully stable.

We have not used GitLab technical support because as of now, we haven't needed it yet.

Prior to using GitLab, I was using GitHub.

The initial setup is not complicated. Especially if you have used GitHub before, it is pretty easy. Being on the cloud, you don't have to buy a server or anything else. You pay for it, set it up, and all of the protection and other services are included.

GitLab can be used free of charge but if you use it for years and move to a paid license then it is better because you have more services. I think that we pay approximately $100 USD per month.

We strive to always have the latest technology. In this business, you have to follow your client and follow the trend. In fact, you have to do things ahead of the trend and be prepared. For us, this tool is really convenient.

My advice for anybody who is implementing this solution is to consider the paid version. Don't be afraid to pay a few dollars a year. Especially for a startup company, this tool is an investment. You don't have to look at it as an expenditure or expense. Don't think about it as spending money, but rather, investing money.

From my point of view and for what I use GitLab for, it is okay for me. There may be other products, but this is a great tool. It's convenient and it's used by a million developers. The developers here consider it to be the best choice. That said, there is always room for improvement in a product.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We were working on our pipeline infrastructure running GitLab and we needed some scripts, such as Terraform, to complete some operations.

I have found the solution has good performance.

The solution could improve by having better integration.

I have been using GitLab for a couple of weeks.

The solution is stable.

The stability of the solution has been good.

I was satisfied with the support.

There is a license required for this solution.

I have evaluated Slack.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate GitLab a seven out of ten.

I use GitLab to bring code from repositories.

GitLab's best feature is Actions.

GitLab would be improved with the addition of templates for deployment on local PCs.

I've been using GitLab since 2019.

GitLab is stable, I would rate its stability nine out of ten.

Previously we used Team Foundation Server, but GitLab is better for local cloud deployment.

The initial setup was simple.

GitLab is highly priced for smaller teams, but it's okay if considering a user base of thousands.

I would give GitLab a rating of nine out of ten.
