A great software for developers.

What do you like best about the product?
For one thing, I cherish that it's free and is a fantastic contrasting option to GitHub. I like that I can make private repositories for my very own activities as opposed to having to openly impart code to a gathering, which as a beginner can be somewhat scary. (Particularly since I'm from an outline foundation, not so much coding!) The evaluating scale is great and sensible, for the same number of users as vital. I'm as of now learning Python and it helps significantly that there a couple of API customers I can look over. The "code audit" framework is great. I extremely like the UX/UI of GitLab. It's outwardly perfect, practical and is bolstered well.
What do you dislike about the product?
In our joining, we do not have a few highlights accessible on other git customers, for example, github. The inline rendering of note pads on Github, and the considerably more straightforward capacity to impart to outside users is a colossal in addition to for getting criticism and utilization data. Additionally no drifting repos to perceive any cool new thoughts individuals have concocted is a short. Besides, the simplicity of connecting issues/repos/pull requests crosswise over different posts is less clear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
in the event that you need an all encompassing arrangement with a system around engineers, at that point this is the arrangement you require. It gives a ton of local help for engineers coordinated effort. The organization likewise encapsulates devops and an open and straightforward culture.

Like Github, but a bit worse

  • September 20, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that it provides almost all the functionalities that GitHub provides. It supports a wide variety of of features that works great if your company wants to integrate pipelining with their source control. It also has very intuitive and easy to use UI which is always helpful as not every users want to use command line. It also has great integration with Jira, and that is the Agile board that we use so it's really helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have experienced random connection issues with GitLab either when pulling or pushing to our repo. The web interface also seems to be slow sometimes, and it is definitely not due to our internet connection. Also the profile view isn't as good as GitHub if that is something you or your organization cares about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company was mainly using it as a centralize source control for most of our code base. Based on our purpose, GitLab was able to fulfill the job and fit our work flow wonderfully. We are also using Perforce and that is an old and ancient platform, so GitLab was well appreciated by our team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would consider using GitHub first before trying GitLab as it is the same, but offers more functionality.

Awesome tool for VCS

  • August 14, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love that they provide an enterprise edition and a community edition that is free unlike the enterprise one. You can host it yourself and be the only one that is responsible for the hosting. The user interface is great; simple, clear and intuitive for both developer and other users. It's well engineered and updated often.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features that some might think are essential are not in the community edition
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can host the code of any of our projects using Git and setup continuous integration pipelines for code that is reviewer by other developers easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's recommended that you host it yourself, you will have a better time and if you got the spare space for running Gitlab on your servers it's a no brainer.
