Love that it's a free tool at the start for startups to try.

The design is a bit clunky and could use some more hierarchy

Gitlab provides great centralized repo management

  • September 26, 2017

What do you like best about the product?
Ability to see MRs in progress, decent code diff display, inline review commenting.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't start with all files in a diff collapsed. Lag for email notifications when commenting on diffs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We control changes to our source code repos by requiring merge requests and code review. This provides oversight and a history of who did what and when.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We have a self-hosted instance. It can be a little slow to respond, but then that may be due to other factors like network speed, etc.

Gitlab is the best on-premise solution for managing a codebase with the added bonus of being able to have a full CI pipeline living with the code.

The SPA nature of Gitlab is not the most responsive sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gitlab provides us with a standard way of interacting with our code that allows for the support of a full CI pipeline

    Computer Software

Good product and nice to use

  • July 13, 2017

What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy the continuous integration suite.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the top navigation bar for issues/PRs etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were using a combination of CVS and SVN before I joined. After I joined I realized we needed to step up our game to Git. We also had a bad peer code review system (stand behind someone looking at their code) and needed to improve it. Another severely lacking system we didn't have in place was continuous integration. We didn't have a system to automatically run tests and deploy to our servers if tests passed. We also needed all of this to be hosted on our own hardware. I had used GitLab before on my own personal projects and thought it would be a great fit for our team since it would improve our speed on so many aspects.

Open Source Github

What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is an online or on-premisses github alternative with some unique features and a continuously evolving software. It has monthly release cycle, which means that every month you get new features. If you have the opportunity to use it locally, you're able to make it public or private (just for your collaborators). You can control individual, group and project permissions. You can also have public and private projects. Most of the features you might be used to on Github are available on Gitlab.

With the somewhat recent integration with Gitlab CI, you can automate tests and deployments to staging or production.
What do you dislike about the product?
Gitlab has some unique features, but some are restricted to the Enterprise Edition, which can quickly get expensive for a small team of 3 or 4 developers.

Gitlab uses Ruby on Rails so it needs a comfortable amount of hardware resources or it will feel slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing software even on a small group of developers can get messy without a proper version control system. Gitlab allows you to create projects and groups of developers, assign permissions (even for external users like clients which could just look at the issue tracker), protect code branches, enforce peer review.

Also, with some effort you can enable a Continuous Deployment environment.
