A scalable tool with an easy initial setup phase useful for building new connectors and preparing scripts

  • August 23, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

I use GitLab for some of my CyberArk scripting work.

What is most valuable?

GitLab's scoop is like a lifesaver. It's very crucial for us in our company to use some of those scripts from GitLab, either for health checks or building new connectors is very important for us, and at times, with GitLab, you don't even need to build the connectors.

What needs improvement?

Some of the scripts that we encountered in GitLab were not fully functional and threw up errors. The aforementioned area of the solution needs improvement.

In the future, I would like to see GitLab providing more oversight over the coding part.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using GitLab for a couple of years. I use the solution's latest version.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a stable solution and seems to be a well-tested product with no issues. I rate the stability a nine out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It is a scalable solution. There are a lot of users on GitLab, so it is a highly scalable product. I rate the scalability a nine out of ten.

GitLab has only two users, including myself, in our company.

We don't have plans in our company to increase the number of users in future.

How are customer service and support?

The solution's technical support is pretty good. If you go on Stack Overflow platform, you can find technical support there. The product's technical team is knowledgeable, responds quickly, and is customer friendly.

I rate the technical support a nine out of ten.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup of GitLab is pretty simple, with no complications.

The deployment process took less than an hour, which means it can be done in around 45 minutes.

The solution can be deployed on the cloud or on-premises version by installing the EXE file.

Only one junior engineer is required for deployment and maintenance.

What about the implementation team?

The deployment phase can be done by yourself, in-house.

What was our ROI?

The ROI has been good since we have had no issues so far.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

My company uses the free version of GitLab, which is GitLab Community Edition. There is a licensed version also available for GitLab.

What other advice do I have?

I would tell those planning to use the solution to try developing their own scripts in GitLab and then try to download them from the repository there. You build your knowledge while helping others as well.

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

Amazing source code Repo, comes with all the required features.

  • August 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
- Easy to understand, intuitive
- Great documentation if you use help command
- Gitlab Runners, we can use them to run our code in a separate environment
- Standardised yml for various pipeline stages
What do you dislike about the product?
I have used 2 source code repos, Gitlab and Github. I really like both but I would say if you want to work with UI github will score better compared to Gitlab, also Github's co-pilot is amazing which is currently missing from Gitlab (as per my knowledge)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Source code Management
- Executing code in Gitlab runners
- Collaboration between devs and QAs
- Setting up Pipelines for various stages
- Basically a complete solution for managing code

A highly stable and affordable solution that provides good repository management features and support

  • August 18, 2023
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for on-premises repository management

What is most valuable?

CI/CD is valuable for me. The product also has a monitoring feature connected to Grafana. It helps with alerts. We are using the free GitLab Community Edition. It has a lot of great features.

What needs improvement?

The documentation is confusing. Sometimes, it is incomplete or has incorrect information. I have informed the vendor about it. Some features in the GitLab Community Edition are not available to us.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for nine months. My organization has been using it for around two years. We are using the latest version of the solution.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the tool’s stability a ten out of ten. We never faced any downtime.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate the scalability of GitLab Community Edition a seven or eight out of ten. The product could improve the scalability of GitLab Community Edition. Around 60 people are using the product in our organization.

How are customer service and support?

Their support is good.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is easier for someone who knows Linux and has been working as a system administrator. We need to have experience to deploy the solution. It takes around three to four hours to deploy the solution.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We are using the open-source version, anyone can download it.

What other advice do I have?

I am my company’s GitLab administrator. Many features we need are available in Enterprise Edition. If we say that we do not have enough features in GitLab Community Edition, GitLab might just ask us to upgrade to Enterprise Edition. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten.
