GitLab Reviews

Overall, our team is happy with the solution.

The CI/CD pipeline management is the solution's most valuable aspect.

Everything is easy to configure and easy to work with. Our team finds it to be very user-friendly.

Generally, the volume control is very good.

I've looked at GitLab's roadmap. The only thing our company is really waiting on in terms of features is the development of metrics. We're looking forward to being able to take advantage of them.

We've been using the solution for two years at this point.

We've never had any issues with stability. We're very happy with the setup we have and it works well for our team. We haven't had any issues with the product crashing or freezing and I don't recall dealing with bugs or glitches.

The solution is very scalable. I'm not sure how many nodes we have currently, however, it is scalable. If we need the extra capacity, I know we can build it out and use different setups.

We have about 100 users in our company using the product.

We've never needed to contact GitLab for technical support. I can't speak to the level of service their in-house team might give.

We previously used SVN. We migrated everything over to GitLab.

Our platform engineering team found the initial implementation pretty straightforward.

Within the organization, deployment took about a week. That said, we had to spend three weeks migrating from SVN, which is what we were using before.

There isn't really any maintenance required. It's not something we think about or worry about, really.

We're just a customer. We don't have a professional relationship with GitLab.

We're using the latest version of the solution right now.

I would definitely recommend the solution to other organizations. It's pretty easy to use and can scale if you need to. It's stable as well. We're not really missing any features. It's great.

Overall, I'd rate GitLab nine out of ten. They can always improve, which is why I didn't give them a perfect score. What they are working on, based on their roadmap, is already quite impressive. We're looking forward to metrics coming down the pipeline later in the year.

The primary use of the solution is for LCDs and as a repository.

In GitLab, the most valuable feature is using information with a repository and using a containerized approach. You can use containers to create different jobs. 

The dashboard and interface make it easy to use.

GitLab doesn't have AWS integration. It would be better to have integration with other container management environments beyond Kubernetes. It has very good integration with Kubernetes, but it doesn't have good integration with, for example, AWS, ETS, etc.

The solution is stable. So far, we have not experienced any problems or bugs.

Coming from container architecture makes it very scalable. Every job you create will be created with its own container so it doesn't create laws on the existing running jobs on other containers. It expands itself by usage.

As the solution is open-source, there isn't any particular support subscription. There's a community, which is usually quite fast but it's not dedicated to any particular company. It's not certain that you will get the support you need by a certain time. You have to figure it out by yourself. It's quite easy to do so, however. If you have people on your team who have knowledge about containerized technologies, then it's actually not a problem.

We previously used Jenkins. Jenkins management is more complicated than GitLab. GitLab is easier to manage. Because of the simplicity of the product, GitLab is better than Jenkins.

The solution was very straightforward to implement.

Another team did the implementation, but if you use public cloud software, you don't need to deploy anything.

The solution is open-source.

We use the public cloud deployment model.

I would rate the solution nine out of ten.

We use GitLab in the new project for CI/CD, integration, and deployment.

You need to have a good knowledge of the product in order to use it.

I have been using GitLab for six months.

GitLab is a stable solution, and we haven’t faced any bugs.

Around 40 people are using the solution in our organization.

We previously used SVN and Jenkins. We switched to GitLab because it is an advanced tool with many new features.

The solution's initial setup is easy if you follow the official document.

We are using the free version of GitLab.

I am working with the latest version of GitLab. I would recommend the solution to other users based on their requirements. It is easy to learn to use GitLab if you understand Git commands.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I am using GitLab for code management, such as code cloning, and code-to-data.

The most valuable feature of GitLab is its convenience. I am able to trace back most of my changes up to a far distance in time and it helps me to analyze and see the older version of the code.

The user interface could be more user-friendly. We do most of our operations through the website interface but it could be better.

I have been using GitLab for approximately three years.

I rate the stability of GitLab an eight out of ten.

I rate the scalability of GitLab an eight out of ten.

We have more than 1,000 developer users using this solution in my organization.

We have an internal administrator if we need help with the solution, I have not contacted GitLab for support.

I have used previously CVS. Both CVS and GitLab have their advantages and disadvantages. GitLab is in the cloud and can be accessed anywhere which is very flexible. For the functionality, I am not certain about the differences. I find them both to be good solutions.

I would recommend this solution to others that are doing code management.

I rate GitLab a seven out of ten.

I use GitLab to bring code from repositories.

GitLab's best feature is Actions.

GitLab would be improved with the addition of templates for deployment on local PCs.

I've been using GitLab since 2019.

GitLab is stable, I would rate its stability nine out of ten.

Previously we used Team Foundation Server, but GitLab is better for local cloud deployment.

The initial setup was simple.

GitLab is highly priced for smaller teams, but it's okay if considering a user base of thousands.

I would give GitLab a rating of nine out of ten.

We use the Git repository and tagging feature. We are a product-based company and use this solution to move to a forward or backward tag.

We would like to have easier tutorials. Their tutorials are too technical for a user to understand. They should be more detailed but less technical. 

We would also like to have a desktop app for GitLab which will make things a little more seamless.

We have been using this solution for six years. 

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

We had some GitLab integrations and needed some assistance. We received pretty good support.

Positive

We compared this solution with Atlassian. Atlassian has Bitbucket and we felt GitLab is a little easier to use.

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. 

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.
