Too difficult to install

  • October 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is a great tool to share code in a team. It is an alternative to github. You have to install the software in your server and then the code only remains to your team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have done about 8 installations and the installation is too slow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Privacity. You are the owner of your files and you are the master
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be patience on installation

Very good service!

  • October 28, 2017

What do you like best about the product?
First off, I love that it's free and is an excellent alternative to GitHub. I like that I can make private repositories for my own personal projects instead of having to publicly share code with a group, which as a newbie can be a bit intimidating. (Especially since I'm from a design background, not entirely coding!) The pricing scale is good and reasonable, for as many users as necessary. I'm currently learning Python and it helps greatly that there a few API clients I can choose from. The "code review" system is very good. I really like the UX/UI of GitLab. It's visually clean, functional and is supported well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, but I had a bit of a hard time shifting from GitHub to GitLab. (I wish they named their product something a bit easier to distinguish, but that's just me.) There were times when the speed of the free version was absolutely ridiculous. When your team needs push and pull requests within a certain time frame and it takes longer than promised, it can be a bit cumbersome for all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can make as many projects as I'd like with GitLab! The free option has been great for practice projects I work on with my husband, and we can do them infinitely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely continue to use GitHub too! They're both great for projects, so discover what you and your team can do with both!

My favorite Git version control

  • October 27, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part about GitLab is the features that allow software development from start to finish. It allows users to easily implement an agile product development style through their issue tracking. They add in new features all of the time! And the website is always changing so it never gets boring to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
They keep adding features to their product, which is awesome, but can be a bit overwhelming for new users. They've done a good job at mapping everything out, but I feel there should be an option to only show key features as opposed to the entire suite of features. It would make it easier for new users to get used to and find the main features, and, once they're comfortable, they may be able to explore more features by seeing the entire suite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it as a tool to develop, test, build and deploy our projects using an agile product management style. So, we use most of all the features building open source solutions using GitLab to house the source code.

GitLab

  • October 27, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We are just implementing and trying this product out so far the feature that stands out the most is the integration service GitLab CI which can run automated tests after each commit and also automated staging deployments once those tests have run successfully. This is very useful for our testing servers and saves us lots of time since we do not have to manually do this process every time. It basically comes with all the functionality of git which we use at our company which is great. We started using issue tracking which is useful for pointing out bugs in the software so the right developer can fix it.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI is a bit clunky for users, to many clicks for simple tasks. Mattermost is the choice integrated chat, I would rather have slack.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to pull all our processes together into one platform (Version control, issue tracking, planning, automatic builds, code reviewing). We realized GitLab does fill some requirements but I feel GitHub is the better option.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out its cost effective public installation on https://gitlab.com/

I have used Gitlab since the project born and today is a complete recommended option for Developers.

Pipelines for Unit Testing, e2e, CI, CD, private repositories and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
May need more working examples of real project setup for CI, CD.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing, Privacy, and Security, at no cost, allow to growth from ground.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try, it is a great free tool with all the toys to start experimenting with CI, CD, Testing.

Gitlab - light weight source control

  • October 26, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is cool, straight fwd and easy to use source control, i have been using tfs before i started using gitlab.. it takes a little bit of time to get adjusted to it if somebody is coming from a tfs background
What do you dislike about the product?
As it provides a very flexible branching mechanism, sometimes its a bit messy and difficult to merge the changes and push to master if more ppl are working in same areas using many branches in place
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it as one of our source controls to maintain source and history for few of the apps in place

Excellent repository for projects

  • October 26, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are many projects available. If you stuck in your project you can surely get a help from someone on gitlab. Project management is good. Project deployment is easy and fast. Best part is it has kubernetes integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Dashboard is not that good. In continuous deployment it has some problem. Mobile UI should also be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using gitlab for exploring new project and fetch some help in my project. it is very good repository
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Gitlab is best for finding solutions to our problem in our project. So anyone who is working on projects should use gitlab

Great for tracking projects across dispersed teams

  • October 26, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GitLab allows us to manage milestones, track issues, create individual due dates, and easily assign team members accordingly. Managing merge requests and commits from the UI makes for quick work. This truly is Git on steroids!
What do you dislike about the product?
We have used the Enterprise Edition Premium while subcontracting for large-scale projects and found it is a bit pricey, but still worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to streamline and organize projects like never before. We are able to do this with a team spread all over the country, but work as communicatively, efficiently and effectively as if we were in the same room.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
GitLab is great for teams both small and large. The features, scalability, and easy-of-use are far superior to other repo management tools out there.

Easing a necesity

What do you like best about the product?
the inline merge conflict resolution, though it is hard to make appear
What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot think of a thing that I would change, or that negatively impacts my git experience in this tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Version Control Systems are a requirement for my industry, and git is the flavor of choice. Gitlab makes peer review and organization of this much easier.

Distributed software development is much easier
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Solid choice
