We performed a comparison between GitLab and Salesforce Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Rapid Application Development Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."GitLab is being used as a repository for our codebase and it is a one stop DevOps tool we use in our team."
"The solution has an established roadmap that lays out its plans for upgrades over the next two to three years."
"I like GitLab from the CI/CD perspective. It is much easier to set up CI/CD and then integrate with other tools."
"The dashboard and interface make it easy to use."
"It is very flexible and easy because you can store data on cloud."
"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."
"It's a great toolbox where the CI/CD pipeline is the fundamental component, but there are so many other features that you can pull from, which makes it a very powerful tool. My current client is using AWS, and they can, of course, use AWS CodePipeline, but GitLab is much more mature than that, and it also gives you the freedom to decide to go to another platform or have a multi-cloud strategy and things like that. That freedom for me is also very valuable."
"CI/CD and GitLab scanning are the most valuable features."
"It works beautifully. I haven't had any errors."
"It has definitely improved how we function."
"I like the reports and the dashboards. Since I'm a managing partner, I use the reports and dashboards to understand my team's contact management, opportunity management, and account management activities. We use Pardot for marketing campaigns."
"It is a great platform. It's definitely an improvement from the GCP application that we were using previously."
"The reporting tools are very solid."
"I love the report building that is available."
"The solution's stability is fine. There are no issues with Salesforce's stability."
"Salesforce is a phenomenal application. It's very diverse."
"I rate the support from GitLab a four out of five."
"The pricing model of GitLab is an issue for me."
"The integration and storage capabilities could be better."
"I don't really like the new Kubernetes integration because it is pretty focused on the on-premise environment, but we're in a hybrid environment."
"We'd always like to see better pricing on the product."
"I would like configuration of a YML file to be done via UI rather than a code file."
"The solution could be faster."
"It could have more security integrations and the ability to check the vulnerability of the code. I don't think it is a responsibility of Gitlab, but it would be nice to have more options to integrate with."
"The management of Salesforce could be quite a task. Old and unusable contacts can add up over time. If I could wave a magic wand, it would be to initiate a self-cleaning feature."
"Easier process to move to Lightning Components."
"It may be slow, but that is relative. When compared to Siebel CRM, which was large, clunky, and extremely slow, Salesforce seemed fast to me."
"Its documentation and price should be better."
"It could be maybe a bit more user-intuitive."
"The solution's UI is horrible."
"They need an easy way of getting details and then adding to it and then being able to do it in a more simplified way"
"Salesforce needs to be re-platformed, or re-architected, making it lighter."
