What do you like best about the product?
Due to this tool it is very convenient for me to track the progress of our working activities, effectively we have generated our portfolio and also it provides us the real time information about our ongoing projects and it mark them according to their work status. This tool is very easy to configure and provides continuous integration policy that is helping me to merge various codes, for early identification of any problems. Gitlab has helped me to provide continuous delivery of my services to my customers and for that purpose it unifies the entire DevOps tool chain into a single application.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since I have been using this tool is working amazingly and providing reliable results. It is one of the most user friendly and time friendly platform. The pricing is policy needs to be revised for the easy access to the medium and small size business.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides me a graphical representation about the actual cycle of the work progress. Moreover it also provides me a secret variable code by the help of which I can make sure the authorized person access to the software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If I talk about my organization I would say it is the most suitable tool with our company work. It enhances the productivity and provides complete DevOps tool. You must give it a try if you are looking for a an efficient version controlling platform.

Gitlab : A professional collaboration tool

  • November 02, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a very good Version Control Repository Management service. Because of it's very easy to use and user friendly interface it becomes first choice for people who are new to version control.
It provides many feature but some of the features that I like are:
1) Providing read or write access of any repository to any individual is very easy.
2) It provides access at multiple level based on role that you are giving to the user ex developer, owner etc.
3) Conflict resolution interface is very good and can be done manually as well as with the suggestion that it provides.
4) A process can be created for creating issues in Gitlab under each repository, fixing it, getting it reviewed and then finally merged by the individual having appropriate access.
5) One of the major advantage with Gitab is that DevOps can integrate its CICD pipeline with it very easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing that I disliked but still If have to tell something where it can be improved then below are those points:
1) If any notification can be sent to the person to which any merge request is assigned then that can be very useful feature.
2) If some themes can be provided that will also be very useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Gitlab to manage our code in repository with many people working on it with different access. Also we have integrated that repository with CICD pipeline for deployments.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a very good tool for Version Control Management. I will recommend this as it is having very easy to use interface for merge request and access provisions.

Great alternative to the industry leader

  • September 25, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Gitlab for the first time in my current company and it is refreshingly similar, while also offering some benefits over competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features are harder to find, for example, branch protection and managing who can push to the master branch vs just feature branches has been tricky. I also dislike the naming for "Merge Request" - why not call it a "Pull Request" like any other git application?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Version control of code, CI pipelines
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Worth giving Gitlab a try over the industry leader.

Gitlab -- The best CI platform available today

  • September 22, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
So gitlab is great because it does everything and integrates with everything and does it well. You can manage development tickets with a large assortment of custom tags and markup. You can watch the same tickets (cards) flow through the Software development life-cycle. There are graphs and visuals to help track these cards through. Once a task is completed by development it's merged via GIT of course and the merge is super easy to associate with the ticket itself -- because it's all part of the same suite of software. you don't have to worry about hand copying pieces from disparate systems like zoho/jira.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was a little easier to pick specific pre-hooks/post-hooks before code could be merged in. It would be nice for example to enforce a peer code-review prior to being able to merge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Now for my favorite part of gitlab -- which is that you can tie in docker images and runners so that you're code is always tested in a clean environment. Gitlab will also then allow these fully build images to be continuously deployed to a test environment or environment of your choosing.

It has streamlined various softwares, which has ultimately helped me to smooth the balance the continuity of the delivery of services.

Manage your application with GitLab

  • September 15, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This is the most technical tool I came across for having the details analysis of our application and for their better management. Gitlab has enabled be me to monitor deploy and maintain the smooth processing of the ongoing operations. It has collaborated various departments at one platform. Now I can carry out time tracking, source code management, control the service desk and much more. Gitlab has equipped us with integrations that have further helped me in code quality analysis and their testing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Gitlab is a very technical tool a steep learning curve is required for it best use. Moreover its pricing is very high which makes it unavailable for the smaller organizations. Moreover they provide many opportunities for the configuration but it is really very difficult process. Also the interface seems bulky due to so many icons placed on it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This application keeps on modifying and adds new features due to which I never switch to other platforms ads it has empowered me to configure run books and Auto Devops. Moreover it helps me in monitoring the alerts, tracing the errors and loggings. I must say that Gitlab has paved new ways for us to manage our important issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I will highly recommend this tool to the entire business sector it will help you to carry out your daily operations with high precision and provides you a self managed version which will further add to your ease.
