Anoop K Jayan - PeerSpot reviewer
Technical Lead at Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited
AI-driven workflows have transformed our end-to-end development and collaboration processes
The built-in CI/CD integration in GitLab [Private Offer Only] is lacking. We are still depending on other packages. If GitLab [Private Offer Only] had some CI/CD integration internally, it would be beneficial. Because for CI/CD integration now, we are currently doing it with the direct server side. I think it is not that much integrated with the current scenarios of AI, that is AI agent-based or assistant-based coding patterns. Some more improvement is required in GitLab [Private Offer Only] for CI/CD integration along with AI platforms. AI integration is basically what we need, especially on the CI/CD side of GitLab [Private Offer Only]. The code assistant, such as a cloud code assistant, is making things with GitLab [Private Offer Only], but it is conventional. They are pulling the code and sending the thing. I think they can do some more integration, seamless integration with GitLab [Private Offer Only]. AI is consuming GitLab [Private Offer Only] with the older style. If AI were fully pluggable in GitLab [Private Offer Only], it would be beneficial. I think we could get some more time reduction, especially on the testing side and the code testing side.

Digital workflows have replaced paper on the shop floor and speed up regulated manufacturing
Definitely, AI in a regulated industry is something that is a concern of the clients. However, Tulip can stick to 21 CFR Part 11 strictly when it comes to Tulip's AI capabilities. Tulip has already started to look forward to compliance-related things. For example, Tulip's AI widget offers data reading throughout the site. It does not allow any AI to interact with external systems when we apply firewalls on it. In this regard, if Tulip continues in that way, they can definitely stick to the governance and security. As of now, I didn't face any issue related to their AI capabilities. It is working fine but not accurate, which is a red flag in a GXP regulated system. This is my feedback on their AI capabilities. This has been introduced into the latest LTS version and needs more hands-on experience. Before that, I cannot give a direct justification or feedback on their AI capabilities being reliable and accurate. However, at the extent that I have used them, they are accurate and reliable as of now. Tulip is an emerging platform and being a cloud-native MES, it has a lot to improve. According to me, traditional MES like FactoryTalk PharmaSuite has more complex features and user-oriented use cases and complexities that the application itself handles. However, when it comes to Tulip, all the things that matter are in the hands of a developer. That is something that Tulip can improve on. Tulip can switch to a traditional way of delivering in the pharmaceutical industry while keeping the cloud-native impact intact. One improvement that I can give an example of is that Tulip has application templates. Instead of templates, they can offer concrete applications to their pharmaceutical or any specific industrial client for their specific needs, such as a recipe designer and production management for a pharmaceutical client. Then production or material tracking or BOM tracking for a discrete client. In that way, I can see an improvement where Tulip can perform well.

Pros

"GitLab [Private Offer Only] acts as a repository management tool where I can store all my codes, especially my source code, and it helps us to create our own pipelines, automate our jobs through CI/CD, configure our own servers, enhance security in our codes, and improve our performance."
"We have not faced any issues with GitLab [Private Offer Only]. It has been stable throughout our use."
"The top feature that makes me use GitHub and GitLab [Private Offer Only] is that we can have CI/CD integrated, we can also maintain versions and get pull requests, and these things are also very easy to implement, which is why we use it."
"We reduced the four to five-month development time to four to five weeks, a maximum of one month, and we are getting that much throughput with the same employee strength."
"GitLab [Private Offer Only] is completely isolated from the internet, which allows us to have our own private repository since there is no need to share the source code."
"The best advantage of GitLab from my experience is that the community is very big, so you can find everything easily."
"With GitLab [Private Offer Only], I think you can save on time to market because it is a good tool to handle different branch strategies and manage pipelines."
"Tulip has changed my life, as I started using it just for making some inventory, and now I'm moving forward to digitalize 100% of the facility."
"This flexibility and ability to adjust things have led to measurable improvements in our projects, particularly in terms of time saved and user satisfaction."
"Tulip is a pre-configured tool where all fields and options are readily available on the Tulip platform, which impressed me when I evaluated it from a CSV perspective and development perspective."
"Implementing Tulip has positively impacted our organization as we have transitioned from paper MBR and EBR to Tulip's online MBR, significantly reducing the time operators spent manually documenting activities, which also made audit trials easier to manage."
"What has really improved is the time taken to develop and deploy applications, as we save many work weeks in the development phase and have shortened the process compared to the conventional way of programming, while also saving time for operators and improving data accuracy."
"Tulip is really about empowering people to build applications, and those people who build the applications are not necessarily only technical experts or developers."
"The best features Tulip offers include the fact that it is fairly easy to set up and allows you to connect things."
"For projects that would take two to three days in other applications, Tulip allows us to complete them in one day."
 

Cons

"There are disadvantages in GitLab [Private Offer Only]; we sometimes find challenges with lengthy CI/CD pipeline processes and the missing integration of AI, which, if implemented, could considerably speed up the deployment process."
"The built-in CI/CD integration in GitLab [Private Offer Only] is lacking. We are still depending on other packages."
"Unexpected delays happen often, although it has never failed us."
"I would appreciate the benefits of the analytics features, but they are not available in our account or subscription plan."
"Regarding the needed improvements for Tulip, regarding integration that you mentioned, because you have a bunch of features of third-party connections, it is not enough."
"One area Tulip can be improved is addressing the issue that arises when multiple users use the same data tables for Tulip applications."
"As of now, I didn't face any issue related to their AI capabilities. It is working fine but not accurate, which is a red flag in a GXP regulated system."
"For complex applications, Tulip is not equipped well as of now."
"I believe it is still at the beginning and not really advanced for the part I was using, so it could be improved."
"Tulip can do a lot better in user interface."
"Tulip can improve with better or closer support in developing the applications, especially when we as a pharmaceutical company would have our specific requirements and needs that are mandatory for our industry."
"However, if you want a much larger version with better scalability and more UI features, you can consider other products."
