Gitlab -- The best CI platform available today

  • September 22, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
So gitlab is great because it does everything and integrates with everything and does it well. You can manage development tickets with a large assortment of custom tags and markup. You can watch the same tickets (cards) flow through the Software development life-cycle. There are graphs and visuals to help track these cards through. Once a task is completed by development it's merged via GIT of course and the merge is super easy to associate with the ticket itself -- because it's all part of the same suite of software. you don't have to worry about hand copying pieces from disparate systems like zoho/jira.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was a little easier to pick specific pre-hooks/post-hooks before code could be merged in. It would be nice for example to enforce a peer code-review prior to being able to merge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Now for my favorite part of gitlab -- which is that you can tie in docker images and runners so that you're code is always tested in a clean environment. Gitlab will also then allow these fully build images to be continuously deployed to a test environment or environment of your choosing.

Self-hosted code hub

  • September 03, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
All the functionalities that includes for free (community edition) and you can contribute with code or apply your on changes since you can manage your own instance inside your infrastructure.
What do you dislike about the product?
I miss an "update" button in the admin panel or something like that so I don't have to login into the instance or even an auto update feature that you can schedule every X time.
Additionally it would be very good to have a centralized place to list, download, and delete the artifacts of each project, right now it is kind of complicated to delete old unused artifacts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cost effective collaboration hub for our coding projects which also includes a powerful CI/CD toolchain and some basic tools to monitor the project deployment and operation.
You can have better code quality with the Merge Request tools for Code reviews.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't be blinded by the omnipresence of github, gitlab is a very good competitor which also offers tools for CI/CD even in the free tier of the global platform.

Great product used by many in the software industry

  • August 27, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This product has a wealth of features to help you manage your code repos and the users accessing those who typically need granular settings. We can easily set up new repos and have excellent visibility into all user actions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally we will run into application issues, but thankfully these are few and far between. The current issue we have though prevents us from seeing the status of pipeline jobs within a completed merge request, but are able to work around by accessing the job directly within the CI/CD section.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been able to easily get our code moved into repos and therefore can better track and manage our codebase. This prevents us from having to discuss issues directly with different developers and allows us to quickly and easily roll back changes if needed on a per commit basis.

These are the main reasons and features behind my choice and likes to GitLab.

Me and my all colleagues in my organization use this version control tool for version controlling and multiple users work merging. We preserve all of our source codes in Git Lab keeping them private.

It solves the complexities of working with multiple person in the same projects.
There are so cool features for our Dev ops process in our every projects of the company.

We also use all the roles like developer, maintainer, guest, author to access , share and manage the source code.

Gitlab

  • May 11, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
With Gitlab free version we could have unlimited private repository, one of the big advantages that I see that made me migrate from the Github. GIthub only allow me to have the public repository for free.

Where I work they also use Gitlab with Jenkins integration and it works perfect.

I also love the Gitlab for not being owned by Microsoft. I like they are independent and hope they receive a lot of migrations from big projects that are current on Github.

My github account is pretty much creating nets, as I normally use it just to access open source project and sometimes make some contribution.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did not like that Atom does not have a good support for Gitlab. I would love if there is more integration with Visual Code, Atom and other editors.

I would love to see an official app from Gitlab (for mobile), I am using Gitfox, that is great, but has only view permission. I cannot aprove and PR and things like that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am developing Backend and Apps with Gitlab.

I am currently developing a solution that allow doctors to get information from pacients (with COVID-19) from app. They can manage their equipment (breath equipment) remotely. And Gitlab free private repository helps me to do this voluntary job without any extras costs. Since we do not have received any money apport so far it is pretty good.

And if anyone wants to make an apport or support the ideia please fell free to contact.

I am working with several colleagues from university to develop a cheap breath equipment with integration for app and server - to keep ours doctors safe!

My user is @lcsvcn.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try Gitlab if you are using Github right now

Look up and you'll see GitLab

  • May 07, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GitLab has been my go-to got platform for about 2 years now. I was presented to it by the team I joined back them, my first impression was "Wow, this looks a lot nicer than GitHub", as I am a sucker for good UI/UX.

With experience on the platform I became more and more impressed with the whole ecosystem GitLab provides, from a project management stand and a developer stand, GitLab features a lot of tools to aid software teams.

For me, the most impressive part of their toolchain would have to be the CI/CD Platform, the ease of use and it's flexibility is wonderful. Building CI/CD pipelines never felt easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
One small problem I've had is that GitLab's search feature is sometimes wonky with it's results, sometimes dismissing personal/private projects in favor of other projects entirely, and sometimes it isn't.

Another one that is not entirely the fault of the platform, would have to be the lack of open source projects that are hosted on it. The reason for that I'd have to guess is that the name "GitHub" has become the default when talking about OSS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Software development related problems, those being web apps, web servers, monitoring tools, developer tools, etc.

Having both a fully feature project management suite and a highly integrated CI/CD platform are, most definitely, the biggest benefits over other Git platforms.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider using GitLab if you want a world class CI/CD platform fully integrated with each and every project, great project management tools, a built-in package registry, great UI/UX experience on all platforms, fair pricing and the ability to roll your own.
