Best code version control and code sharing platform available for businesses

  • March 14, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful feature I found while using GitLab is how easy it is for an organization to manage its multiple projects in one place. Project managers can create a new repository for a new project and add the members as per the need.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are not many things that I can list as my dislikings when talking about GitLab, but since I have to mention here, I'd go with the need for a better UI.
What I'm talking about here is how we have a feature to change the UI themes, but not many great options to choose from. I mean changing just the color is too old stuff now, there should be more options available for complete UI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The number one problem it solves is taking all the pain out of code sharing and version control systems. All the members of the projects can make different changes in the codebase and then proceed to merge their versions into the main code, exactly how it's supposed to be done, and this tool makes this work effortless.

We can. Create our pipeline and we can add Jenkins on top of it to automate the deployment process.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing much but one thing is we can add more user roles so that any organisation can handle it seemlessly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Code base maintenance with deployment fr it using AWS and lambda.

GitLab is a great DevOps platform.

What do you like best about the product?
In my organization we are using gitlsb as the main git repository and for CI/CD. GitLab is a complete DevOps platform that brings development, operations, and security teams into a single application as well as managing the code. Gitlab makes an easy way to manage projects code as well as run cicd pipelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Editing multiple files via UI is problematic, also showing diff in code is also not that much prefect. Resolving conflicts is need improvement
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitLab offers tracking from planning to creation to help developers automate the entire DevOps lifecycle and achieve the best possible workflow. Managing your code with cicd pipelines make it easy to development to deployment process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its nice platform to manage devops.

Gitlab, the ideal devops platform for getting the job done

  • March 11, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The user interface is good. All the tabs and menu options are well placed. Easy to find what a user is looking for. I have also used Azure Devops platform and felt that this is a great alternative.
What do you dislike about the product?
While using Gitlab I faced some issues related to the Gitlab account access. I faced that issue in Firefox browser but it was working fine on Chrome. Looked like something related to the cookies but couldn't figure it out. Tried restarting the system but all in vain. Ultimately setting the right ssl headers solved the issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Gitlab we can make use of a highly functional devops platform. It provides issue tracking on a continuous integration continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. It provides the functionality to automate the devops activities like designing, building, testing and deploying.

Best Source code management tool

  • March 11, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's the best and perfect source code management tool we have ever used. We can create as many public or private repositories to manage our work. It is very useful and helpful in automatic works and CI/CD development.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform is very much updated but I think that some premium features pricing is much higher than other market competitors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides a very attractive and deep visualization of the overall project structure that helps to focus only on product development. The automation and CI/CD integration support enable the developers to mainly focus on the code developemnt.

Best Tool for CI/CD and Version Control for SaaS platforms!

  • March 10, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has a seamless user experience and has notifications for each pull and push request for the code. The visual part of the merge conflicts is very useful and also has very easy CI/CD integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not have much support for nodejs and python applications. The review process is a bit complicated for gitlab. Apart from that, there should be some sort of documentation for CI/CD integration
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The following problems are being solved using gitlab: 1) Automated build, testing and development, release operations and management, easy collaboration over different teams.

GitLab: The best SCM and CI Tool

  • March 10, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We are using GitLab CI for almost 4 years now, It's the best tool for source code management and CI service. We are using a single CI configuration for the test, build and deployment of the application from different branches. GitLab provides preconfigured runner but we are using our runner to make the builds faster. We are storing the artifacts like scan reports in the GitLab itself which is a great feature to track the status of security checks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't this there's anything to dislike about GitLab but recently we struggled a lot while configuring the EC2 based runners with auto-scaling features. This is simply because the documentation is not sufficient. Another issue we faced was that the default GitLab runners are very slow as compared to custom runners.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using GitLab to keep the code and the pipeline on the same platform. This gives the DevOps team and the developers a clear vision of the code and the deployments from a single dashboard. Developers can see the error in the case of deployment failure, the DevOps team can access see the deployment status and issues and security can see the security report and all of these available on a single dashboard.
