GitLab is great for software teams.

What do you like best about the product?
GitLab has a generous free tier. We have also been able to purchase more GitLab Runner minutes a la carte. Most other places require you enter a subscription tier to take advantage of add-ons. I started using GitLab when Github required a paid plan for a team to work on private repositories and have never looked back.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of any at this point. I've been happy with the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitLab solves the problem of finding affordable source control and CI/CD pipelines for automated tests and deployments.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The main functionality that usually let me choose gitlab over GitHub Is wether or not I need to use the pipelines. Gitlab allows you to easilt integrate your repository with a pipeline service such as Jenkins

It's not too easy to manage at first, multiple time I struggled during merge conflicts that need to be solved but I need to close the request and reopened It to succeed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps that the documentation is very good and It can be integrated with a lot of other services. It benefits me that I can work with either the repository and the pipeline system from a centric platform that I can share with and control. The branch system is very straight forward even for new developers too

Easy to use and really handy product

  • September 29, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The version control in GitLab has always been helpful to me, and the whole team can work on the same project; even the same file is beneficial while building a real-time project. The GitLab's User Interface and User Experience make it much easier to focus on development rather than manually handling insignificant things.
What do you dislike about the product?
The community for GitLab is relatively smaller than the community of GitHub. Although they are somewhat similar, some other operation in GitHub is a little complicated. Also, there have been times when the GitLab's service gets down, which I have never faced while using Github.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team Contribution is what has always been helpful to me rather than doing things manually, and also, some of the features like cherry-pick and revert PRs are valid in GitLab.
