The Best Tool for CI/CD and more
What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab's interface is one-of-a-kind. It's really a great looking UI.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is really nothing that I dislike. Gitlab is all about how you "use" the tool. Our team uses almost every single part of functionality that Gitlab offers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it for continuous integration/deployment.
We run all of our pipelines through it.
We also it for our daily standups. It has the best Kanban board that you can have. The labels/tags make it easy to track tickets/issues.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get it! It's the best tool for dev teams hands down. I've worked with it at several companies, and I can guarantee that you will love it and not want to use any other dev tool (even github). The only downside I can see is that it doesn't link to your github repo, which is often times what companies look at. It would be nice to showcase your daily commits on your public github repo from gitlab. Obviously there is a conflict of interest there, so that will probably never happen.
When it comes to dev teams, Gitlab really helps boost productivity and provide an-all-in-one place for devs to track issues, fix bugs, and talk about problems. Gitlab has great slack integration too, and I would recommend using them together. Finally, Gitlab's pipeline let's us run all of our testing suite inside of it. It's nice to just have everything "work" so seamlessly. Gitlab makes it really easy for devs to be able to focus on fixing issues and not managing the tool itself. Thanks Gitlab team!!

What do you dislike about the product?
Not good for integration with Eclipse or Intellij
No ability to clean up old local branches at once
No ability to clean up old local branches at once
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Git Lab enables us to manage the java code versions in our project
Great alternative to GitHub
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use user interface and functionality similar to GitHub. Merge requests, peer review. Built-in CI with GitLab CI.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks the social exposure and popular projects that are on GitHub.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
VCS code repositories, internally hosted and secure, continuous integration.
Excellent version control on scripts, but external git software for file management required
What do you like best about the product?
Strong version control across many developers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of or poorly enumerated in-browser file management solution requires you to use command line Git statements or download an external application
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We adopted GitLab to introduce firm version control and a centralized code repository across the entire operations department as scripting and automation and code efficiency has become a necessary aspect of our business.
Slow and buggy
What do you like best about the product?
Many vomplete and useful functionalities even for the free version.
What do you dislike about the product?
Very slow in general, a lot of failures and outages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Code repository, code reviews, issues management, continuous integration and delivery.
Gitlab, it’s pretty solid
What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab provides a very intuative UI for a centralized server to host origin remotes for git repos, it provides a convenient way to track branches, approve/create pull requests, create change requests, etc. The best feature, in my experience is the UI, the visually appealing nature of it lulls management types who don’t know what they’re talking about but would very much like to have a say in what developers may or may not use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The CI/CD setup is a little odd to wrap your head around at first, it’s not hard, mind you, it’s just different than what most people are used to dealing with. The documentation could be a bit clearer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves git repo creation/management as well as CI/CD orchestration. We’ve realized having CI/cd and not using TFS any more.
Fantastic all-in-one source control
What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab CI is a revolutionary CI, no need to connect multiple services together (ex. Github & Travis CI). The flexibility of the different types of CI runners (SSH, docker, etc) allows users to customize the experience to their needs. Another advantage of Gitlab over its competitors is the unlimited free private repositories as well as the free CI, you do need to wait for a public runner to be available which makes it hard to debug but its free.
What do you dislike about the product?
CI documentation is confusing, the documentation is all over the place, it is updated but hard to find what you want. Although free, you might have to wait several hours before your CI starts, worth paying if needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On-site deployed source control management as well as a reduction in the integration of multiple programs such as GitHub with Travis CI or Jenkins.
Easy to use but a bit unstable
What do you like best about the product?
Its very easy to use the basic features. Especially making merge requests because it prefills your recently pushed branch in under a minute. It also links well to Jira.
What do you dislike about the product?
Loading merge request diffs are slow especially the larger ones. The search feature isn't very refined and can only look at titles.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Code management and review. However, we are thinking of switching to GitHub.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you require just the basics or a specific plug-in then try it first. For enterprise level I think we will switch to Git Hub.
Gitlab experience
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to utilize. It makes collaboration so much easier
What do you dislike about the product?
No complaints. Gitlab is a great service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solving version control problems. We’re able to work with each other rather than against
Clean and Simple
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is at a minimum; a complete replacement for JIRA and BitBucket for enterprise software development usage.
It gives you a somewhat clean interface and navigation to allow you to traverse the website with ease which is almost lacking with most web applications that just give you the bare minimum.
It gives you what it says it gives you, it is a platform for source versioning which also has its own build pipeline or you can also use your own by using their webhooks.

What do you dislike about the product?
The interface sometimes feels quite unintuitive but I get that they're still a budding software so hopefully we'll see something better later on
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I've said, It is a complete replacement for JIRA and BitBucket hence the ticketing system, CI and Source Versioning is on point
