Great Repo Management Tool

  • February 01, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love several things about Gitlab but here are a few:
- Free and Easy to Use
- Open Source
- Helps you maintain Working Code copy on Remote Repository
- Easy Collaboration
- Easy to Merge code, resolve conflicts
- Can add branches to make sure master/working copy of the code is not affected
- User Roles, Privileges help with project management
There are many more advantages of using this tool but these were some of the top!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a single thing, literally. The UI is good and easy and you can get almost everything done on the UI part. Be it raising merge requests, editing/uploading files, creating/deleting branches, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps with code management using a central repository. It also lets you have User Roles and Privileges using which it becomes easier to manage projects. Combine all this with the Git Bash tool and you can perform all the actions via command line.

GitLab: A complete DevOps Tool

  • January 28, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GitLab is a secure and highly available SCM service that can use with other premium features for free. GitLab provides CI integration and shared runners for DevOps implementation. It also has a community version that can be self-host in any cloud or local server.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of anything which I don't like about Gitlab but I world say Default shared runners provide a build for free but they are really very slow as compared to other similar services.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitLab provides us the space where we can store and share our codebase with the developers. It also allows us to deploy the application with its DevOps features. We can add our own runners which ensures faster deployments of the code.

Fantastic platform for development and task management

  • January 24, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The comment and description fields functional. They allow markdown and attachments which really help with making Merge Requests more descriptive. It's also great that the task management system is on the same platform. Easy to keep track of issues and link them together.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing major. Some of the functionalities aren't fully compatible on mobile browsers. For example, managing a board and moving tasks around is pretty tedious. But that's just nitpicking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Merge Requests for code pushes are very easy to compare, review and resolve. The UI makes it easy to manage branches, merge permissions and so on. It's easy to set up and makes the team more productive.

The best CI/CD (DevOps) platform I've experienced

  • January 18, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Much more, I like the flexibility of the CI/CI pipelines. It provides tools and functionalities that you can combine the software development and operatios lifecycle in one place with the help of VCS, CI/CD, Container and Package registry and other features.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually it happen very rarely but sometimes the pipeline jobs don't trigger when I use "only:changes" keyword in my CI pipelines. Comparing to competitors the website works a little slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With GitLab, we cover:
- software contribution: The teams are contributing the software easily
- software delivery: This process has become easier and more manageable with the help of the CI/CD feature.
- packages and registries: This is very nice when you can store your containers or packages (e.g., Helm charts) in GitLab's registry.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's easy to use. The pricing is good.
