Review provided by PeerSpot
What is our primary use case?
GitLab Premium is being used, but the CI/CD functionality is not utilized. GitLab also provides the entire CI/CD ecosystem, but that is not being used. GitLab Premium is used for version controlling only.
The primary use case for GitLab Premium is version controlling. Version controlling and triggering capabilities are available, and GitLab configuration is good, but not comparable to GitHub .
GitLab Premium is used for internal needs only.
GitHub Actions are used for enterprise clients, as GitHub is widely used across the enterprise client base. Maximum enterprise clients are using GitHub, while some clients are using Azure Repos. For internal purposes, GitLab Premium is used because most proof of concept work has been done with Jenkins , and automation testing is also performed with Jenkins . A dedicated server for GitLab Premium is maintained because there are more than 350 users. If GitHub were implemented instead, it would be costlier. GitLab Premium is less costly, which is the main reason for the choice.
GitHub is used widely for enterprise clients, while GitLab Premium is used as a customer and user solution.
How has it helped my organization?
Advanced scheduling capability for pipelines does not impact build and deployment speed. This is not felt because integration has been done with a Jenkins project. More than 100 projects are integrated with the Jenkins CI/CD pipeline, and all those repositories are in GitLab Premium only. No lag or slowness is experienced because webhooks have been integrated with all pipelines for auto build triggers. Builds are triggered within seconds.
What is most valuable?
The biggest benefit from GitLab Premium is that both repository management systems are good, as both GitHub and GitLab are valuable. The main advantage is that GitLab Premium has community support. For small organizations, GitLab Premium is good in all aspects. However, for enterprise use, GitLab Premium is also chargeable, though not to the same extent as GitHub.
What needs improvement?
When discussing improvements for GitLab Premium, the main area is the GUI. GitHub's GUI is very good, offering many collaboration options and the ability to customize dashboards. GitHub's look and feel is superior, but GitLab Premium's dashboard is very simple.
Regarding capabilities lacking in GitLab Premium, the main concern is the GUI. For example, in GitHub, there is a right side profile where settings can be directly accessed, and there is a direct section for developer mode with clear segregation. In GitLab Premium, when accessing users, confusion sometimes arises between root user and main user. There is an option for groups, but it is not direct. When clicking on groups, it goes to another section where groups must be found. This hierarchy could be more straightforward and direct.
The biggest drawbacks of GitLab Premium are GUI and configuration. GUI is the primary concern, but other aspects are good.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
A stability rating of eight points is given for GitLab Premium.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
GitLab Premium's scalability is rated at 8.5.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support is felt to be good, but not comparable to GitHub. There is some additional response time, which sometimes feels like a delay. Fast response is needed, but not to the level provided by Microsoft.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
Regarding installation and deployment, GitLab Premium is quite easy to deploy. This is confirmed by the fact that more than 100 projects are managed by GitLab Premium and integrated with Jenkins CI/CD. Build and deployment are quite seamless.
What was our ROI?
Regarding ROI with GitLab Premium, in terms of price, GitLab Premium is better because it is less expensive. GitHub is much more costly.
Regarding whether GitLab Premium is rentable, much clarity cannot be provided because all of these matters are handled by the network management team. Return on investment cannot be provided with much clarity because when working for enterprise clients, they pay hourly for IT systems. These things may be affordable or if they are costlier, they are managed when clients pay the company. GitLab Premium is manageable, and there is no additional complexity regarding ROI.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
GitLab Premium is affordable in terms of pricing, while GitHub is a bit pricier. If working with a much more complex and vast organization at the enterprise level, GitHub would be the choice. If operating a small organization or startup company without much complex scenarios, GitLab Premium is good.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Regarding code review enhancements, GitLab Premium is being used for code-based implementation. For new enterprise clients, GitHub is preferred, but for startup companies that are new to development and operations, GitLab Premium is good because it does not charge much more than GitHub. For small organizations, small teams, and small companies, GitLab Premium is good. For the enterprise level, if working with much complex operations, much greater security, and much more usability and accessibility regarding user access and parameters, GitHub is preferred.
What other advice do I have?
The company relationship with Microsoft and GitHub is as a service provider, while with GitLab Premium, the relationship is as a customer and user.
If operating a startup company, GitLab Premium should be used, as GitLab Premium also provides a community edition with which many things can be done that are available on GitHub.
Regarding scheduling for pipelines, advanced scheduling capability does not impact build and deployment speed. This is not felt because integration has been done with a Jenkins project. All repositories are in GitLab Premium only. No lag or slowness is experienced because webhooks have been integrated with all pipelines for auto build triggers. Whenever any developer pushes any commit or code to the GitLab Premium repository, it automatically triggers within seconds.
The biggest benefit from GitLab Premium is that both repository management systems are good, as both GitHub and GitLab are valuable. The main advantage is that GitLab Premium has community support. For small organizations, GitLab Premium is good in all aspects. However, for enterprise use, GitLab Premium is also chargeable, though not to the same extent as GitHub.

What do you like best about the product?
GitLab is pretty straightforward to use for day-to-day development work. Setting it up and getting CI/CD running doesn’t take much effort, which I really appreciate. Having everything in one place — code, issues, and pipelines — makes working with the team smoother. Also, whenever we’ve reached out, the support team has been quick and helpfull.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since GitLab offers so many features, it can feel a bit overwhelming when you’re just starting out. Also, I’ve noticed that performance can slow down a little when working with larger repositories, but it’s not a big issue once you get used to the workfloww
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an Android developer, GitLab helps me keep everything organized in one workflow — code reviews, issue tracking, and CI/CD builds for different app flavors. It makes collaboration with backend and QA teams much smoother, and automated pipelines save a lot of time during testing and releases. Overall, it’s helped us ship updates faster and with fewer headaches.

GitLab: Powerful All-in-One DevOps, but Can Be Heavy for Small Teams
Reviewed on Oct 16, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
GitLab is an all-in-one DevOps platform that brings everything — from code hosting and CI/CD pipelines to issue tracking and security — under one roof. The best part is its seamless CI/CD integration, which makes automating builds, tests, and deployments incredibly easy. Its Merge Request workflows, inline code reviews, and visibility into pipelines help teams collaborate efficiently. The user interface is clean, intuitive, and works great for both small teams and enterprise-scale projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
While GitLab is powerful, it can feel heavy for smaller projects. The initial setup for CI/CD runners and permissions can be a bit complex, especially for new users. Occasionally, pipeline execution speed slows down for larger repos, and the pricing for premium tiers can be high for startups. Also, the UI could load faster when dealing with large numbers of issues or merge requests.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitLab helps us manage the entire software development lifecycle in one place. It solves the problem of switching between multiple tools for version control, CI/CD, and issue management. With GitLab, our workflows are more streamlined — code reviews, deployments, and monitoring happen within the same platform. This has improved collaboration across teams, reduced development time, and given us better visibility and control over releases.
