Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The merging feature makes it easy later on for the deployment.""The most valuable feature of GitLab is its security.""I have had no problem with the stability of the solution.""As a developer, this solution is useful as a repository holder because most of the POC projects that we have are on GitLab.""CI/CD and GitLab scanning are the most valuable features.""GitLab is kind of an image of GitHub, so it gives us the flexibility to monitor our changes in the repos.""I have found the most valuable features of GitLab are the GitClone, GitPush, GitPull, GitMatch, GitMit, GitCommit, and GitStatus.""I have found the most valuable feature is security control. I also like the branching and cloning software."

"The graphical view of when you're writing flow is the most valuable feature.""The CA Application Insight feature is the solution's most valuable aspect.""One standout aspect is its architecture. We can configure multiple instances on a single server using different system names or usernames."

Cons
"Some of the scripts that we encountered in GitLab were not fully functional and threw up errors.""We would like to generate document pages from the sources.""GitLab can improve the integration with third-party applications. It could be made easier. Additionally, having API control from my application could be helpful.""The user interface could be more user-friendly. We do most of our operations through the website interface but it could be better.""I rate the support from GitLab a four out of five.""The price of GitLab could improve, it is high.""Based on what I know so far, its integration with Kubernetes is not so good. We have to develop many things to make it work. We have to acquire third-party components to work with Kubernetes.""GitLab could add a plugin to integrate with Kubernetes stuff."

More GitLab Cons →

"The configuration of the solution is a bit difficult to maneuver. They should work to make it easier.""A concern with CA Release Automation is that Automic was acquired by CA recently. We're a bit concerned that CA strategy is going with Automic, that CA Release Automation is dead. They are not investing in it too much... They do say, that in the next two or three years we don't need to worry. They will still provide support for CA Release Automation. But we're not sure how CA Release Automation will evolve.""When I started using Nolio around eight months ago, a challenge was the lack of relevant information and related support for learning.""It could use better integration with development tools.""In the next release, I would like to see more features to use active directory. And more rules to support more Python scripts and to work with Kubernetes and clouds, to have an easy solution for a lot of parameters."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I think that we pay approximately $100 USD per month."
  • "The price is okay."
  • "It seems reasonable. Our IT team manages the licenses."
  • "Its price is fine. It is on the cheaper side and not expensive. You have to pay additionally for GitLab CI/CD minutes. Initially, we used the free version. When we ran out of GitLab minutes, we migrated to the paid version."
  • "It is very expensive. We can't bear it now, and we have to find another solution. We have a yearly subscription in which we can increase the number of licenses, but we have to pay at the end of the year."
  • "I don't mind the price because I use the free version."
  • "We are using its free version, and we are evaluating its Premium version. Its Ultimate version is very expensive."
  • "The price of GitLab could be better, it is expensive."

  • "Nolio is a pretty much good tool, though its pricing is relatively high in the market. It's more expensive than other tools."
