Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"GitLab is a solution for source code management, container registry, pipelines, testing, and deployment.""Git hosting has an integration with ACD which is why we liked this solution in the first place.""We're only using the basic features of GitLab and haven't used any advanced features. The solution works fine, so that's what we like about GitLab. We're party using GitHub and GitLab. We have a GitHub server, while we use GitLab locally or only within our team, and it works okay. We don't have any significant problems with the solution. We also found the straightforward setup, stability, and scalability of GitLab valuable.""The most valuable features of GitLab are the CI/CD pipeline and code management.""This is a scalable solution. We had around 200 users working with it.""It is a speedy platform compared to the others I have used. I have also enjoyed using the platform as this solution offers a good user experience.""I have found the most valuable feature is security control. I also like the branching and cloning software.""We like that we can create branches and then the branches can be reviewed and you can mesh those branches back. You can independently work with your own branch, you don't need to really control the core of other people."

"The product detects memory corruptions.""The outputs are very reliable.""When we work on safety modules, it is mandatory to fulfill ISO 26262 compliance. Using Prover helps fulfill the standard on top of many other quality checks, like division by zero, data type casts, and null pointer dereferences.""Polyspace Code Prover is a very user-friendly tool.""Polyspace Code Prover has made me realize it differs from other static code analysis tools because it runs the code. So it's quite distinct in that aspect."

Cons
"We'd always like to see better pricing on the product.""The solution could improve by providing more integration into the CI/CD pipeline, an autocomplete search tool, and more supporting documentation.""The initial setup was quite challenging because it takes some time to understand how to pull out or push the code.""The solution does not have many built-in functions or variables so scripting is required.""GitLab can improve by integrating with more tools, such as servers with Docker.""Some of the scripts that we encountered in GitLab were not fully functional and threw up errors.""GitLab could improve the patch repository. It does not have support for Conan patch version regions. Additionally, better support for Kubernetes deployment is needed as part of the package.""The integration and storage capabilities could be better."

More GitLab Cons →

"Automation could be a challenge.""Using Code Prover on large applications crashes sometimes.""One of the main disadvantages is the time it takes to initiate the first run.""The tool has some stability issues.""I'd like the data to be taken from any format."

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."

    Overview

    GitLab is a complete DevOps platform that enables teams to collaborate and deliver software faster. 

    It provides a single application for the entire DevOps lifecycle, from planning and development to testing, deployment, and monitoring. 

    With GitLab, teams can streamline their workflows, automate processes, and improve productivity.

    Polyspace Code Prover is a sound static analysis tool that proves the absence of overflow, divide-by-zero, out-of-bounds array access, and certain other run-time errors in C and C++ source code. It produces results without requiring program execution, code instrumentation, or test cases. Polyspace Code Prover uses semantic analysis and abstract interpretation based on formal methods to verify software interprocedural, control, and data flow behavior. You can use it on handwritten code, generated code, or a combination of the two. Each operation is color-coded to indicate whether it is free of run-time errors, proven to fail, unreachable, or unproven.
