Best DevOps Platform.
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about gitlab is that it is an open-source community edition repository management platform. It is easy to manage repositories and push code into GitLab, and clone a repository, user permission, and branch protection are enhanced.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has certain bugs which should be improved,user experience should be improved.It is difficult to manage code reviews for the first timers who are using gitlab for the first time
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using GitLab to put my project in a branch so that all team members can access the project from the central repository. If any changes are done by any member that will be visible to all members, I can easily clone the project and push the project into the repository

Easy to manage repository
What do you like best about the product?
GitLab is Free, and managing the repository was very easy. It helped me create a global repository uri and was also very helpful for code reviews and approvals. It provides easy integration with other applications like confluence to monitor the commits. Merge and tracking was very smooth with the pipelines. Integration with JIRA Software provided me with issue tracking easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
When a system password is changed or reset, it does not automatically update the windows credentials based on the latest password.

A collaborative space with better controls
What do you like best about the product?
The version control is the same as git, but Git lab provides you with more control over your project. It lets you decide who can take which role. The interface is seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
The issue with GitLab is also that at the workplace, the roles are too definitive and won't let you make changes if you don't have a proper role assigned, and that can lead to overhead.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to upload automation scripts that the team could use and version control it. It is better than git due to its privacy control on an enterprise level.
