What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is one of the most used source code version control tool across the industry. Gitlab is very easy to install and use that allows the developers to manage various project artifacts such as application source code, test cases and data. Gitlab comes with a powerful workflow process that enables users to follow the SDLC cycle for the development of applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing to dislike. Gitlab is a great tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gitlab is a great version control tool. At my company, we use Gitlab to manage application source code and send notification emails when the code has been checked in by the developers. This email notification triggers a workflow task for the QA team to begin testing. Once the testing process is complete, the code is deployed into dev and production. We also use Gitlab to manage the test cases and the test data.

GitLab Review

  • June 01, 2022

What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is one of the best version control management available in the market. It helps the developers to maintain the codebase in a single project and also helps to resolve the conflicts easily. It also helps us to find the vulnerabilities in a project and also gives us real-time monitoring. It also helps the DevOps team to deploy the code by using the CI/CD Pipelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Till now I haven't got any cons in the GitLab software. As per me, they are doing a great job and helping them reduce the burden on developers' heads to maintain the codebase.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing the project codebase, building the project and deploying it on the server is the main problem GitLab is solving for us. To manage the codebase if multiple developers working on the same project, it will give us a facility to update our local codebase before pushing the changes in the project and if any conflict is happening it will inform the developer to resolve it first. Then he can push the changes.
And also we can segregate the code if we are pushing any changes by creating a separate branch. It will help us to revert if any issue comes in future.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I am highly recommending this software to every who wants to use of for CI/CD & DevOps.
