GitLab vs GoCD comparison

"GitLab is being used as a repository for our codebase and it is a one stop DevOps tool we use in our team."

"The most valuable feature of GitLab is the ability to upload scripts and make changes when needed and then reupload them. Additionally, the solution is user-friendly."

"The solution has an established roadmap that lays out its plans for upgrades over the next two to three years."

"It scales well."

"I like GitLab from the CI/CD perspective. It is much easier to set up CI/CD and then integrate with other tools."

"As a developer, this solution is useful as a repository holder because most of the POC projects that we have are on GitLab."

"I find the features and version control history to be most valuable for our development workflow. These aspects provide us with a clear view of changes and help us manage requests efficiently."

"The stability is good."

"Permission separations mean that we can grant limited permissions for each team or team member."

"The most notable aspect is its user interface, which we find to be user-friendly and straightforward for deploying and comprehending pipelines. We have the ability to create multiple pipelines, and in addition to that, the resource consumption is impressive."

"The UI is colorful."

"The documentation is confusing."

"Their RBAC is role-based access, which is fine but not very good."

"For as long as I have used GitLab, I haven't encountered any major limitations. However, I think that perhaps the search functionality could be better."

"We are having a few problems integrating with Jira at the moment, which is something that our IT department is investigating."

"GitLab could improve by having more plugins and better user-friendliness."

"The solution could improve by providing more integration into the CI/CD pipeline, an autocomplete search tool, and more supporting documentation."

"It is a little complex to set up the pipelines within the solution."

"GitLab could add a plugin to integrate with Kubernetes stuff."

"The tool must be more user-friendly."

"The aspect that requires attention is the user management component. When integrating with BitLabs and authenticating through GitLab, there are specific features we desire. One important feature is the ability to import users directly from GitLab, along with their respective designations, and assign appropriate privileges based on that information. Allocating different privileges to users is a time-consuming process for us."

"The documentation really should be improved by including real examples and more setup cases."

"I'm not sure if they have some kind of discount. I've been negotiating with them on prices before, and I believe they weren't too happy to give discounts, but list prices are $19 per user, per month for Premium and $99 per user, per month for Ultimate. So, the difference between Premium and Ultimate is a bit bigger, and in most companies, you need to build some type of business case."

"The initial setup cost is excellent and you can add the premium features later."

"This is an open-source solution."

"I think that we pay approximately $100 USD per month."

"We are currently using the open-source version."

"The solution is free."

"In terms of the pricing for GitLab, on a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being cheap, I'm rating pricing for the solution a four. It could still be cheaper because right now, my company has a small team, and sometimes it's difficult to use a paid product for a small team. You'd hope the team will grow and scale, but currently, you're paying a high license fee for a small team. I'm referring to the GitLab license that has premium features and will give you all features. This can be a problem for management to approve the high price of the license for a team this small."

"We are using the open-source version."

"It's an open-source and free tool."

"This is an open-source solution and it is inexpensive."
