Great application to store and review code

  • June 25, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy using GitLab mostly for RPA code packages. The code review features for reviewing version is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue I have had is when committing from a cloned repository. There is usually some kind of access error but it probably my configuration.

Great for code storage and a good idea to always have a backup.

    Computer Software

A good VCS tool

  • June 10, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We can have free private repositories, but it has limited features. But we can get used to it before purchasing the product. Also, I like the web IDE in GitLab, which is far better than the text editor in other VCS. Also, we can check the GitLab ci config file before pushing it and testing it in the pipeline. We can validate the yml script on the GitLab site itself.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some limitations in Gitlab. For example, we can not re-request for review from the co-workers. Also, I am not a fan of GitLab UI. Mainly the notification side.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can use it as a remote git repository to collaborate with co-workers on a project. We can make several branches based on what functionality is being developed. And we can create merge requests and then merge all the work in the main branch. Co-working on software project is very easy with GitLab.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a good tool to use for version management and collaboration on a project. You should consider this software especially when you want a test pipeline with gitlab-ci.

Best business git repository management

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The self-managed version of GitLab lets you control your repository management the way you need. It has so many functionalities that allow your company to customize your repository management securely. I love the kanban integration and especially all the CI/CD that it has. It makes my job much more manageable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes some of the bugs take longer to fix but is nothing that you can get a workaround for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's the tool we use to manage all of our repositories at the company. I've been able to streamline the entire process of deploying the applications with its powerful CI/CD integration.

GitLab : More than version controlling

  • May 03, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Notification alert, cherry-pick, Generate Merge request and assign to superior, add comments and many more features provided by GitLab.
GitLab is easy to configure with CI/CD pipeline.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using GitLab for more than 3 years but till now I could not find any issue with this feature-rich tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My whole team was able to work on the same feature using GitLab. Also, the peer code review feature allowed us to solve several issues before we integrate with the Master branch. Moreover, we have done security penetration testing using the Application Security Testing tool. We have been using this tool as a primary security validation process because it provides a holistic view of our security profile.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This tool is an essential component of our security hardening and validation procedures.
