Best Open Source Code Repository Application
What do you like best about the product?
GitLab is one of the most user friendly open source code repository application in the market. The UI is so aesthetically pleasing and so easy to use. Allows you to create/manage/share your code base with ease. Creating branches out of your repository is the most easiest with GitLab. Allows you to review code with ease. And tracking of check-ins is made way easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
The future for GitLab looks a little uncertain after Microsoft's takeover. I hope it still remains as on open source application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing of code base and it's numerous branches became easy when we moved from SVN to GIT. Developers are allowed to fork out their own branches out the master branch and make their own changes which when approved and reviewed merged back into the master. The going of back and forth action for code review was greatly reduced. Time saving for sure.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Saves time, Clutter free and great way to manage code base.
Best Git Tool For Private Repos
What do you like best about the product?
Free private repos on gitlab.com and self-hosted option for added code protection
What do you dislike about the product?
Public repos aren't as easy to search as GitHub
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
At Sonny's, we use a private, self-hosted GitLab instance for managing our code without concern for our intellectual property sitting on someone else's servers.
Fantastic Remote Git Repo

- Open source
- Extremely easy to setup

- Built-in CI/CD pipeline

What do you dislike about the product?
The only aspect I find annoying is user management. We authenticate using AD and I wished it would allow role based mapping via AD group membership. Right now, I need to wait for someone to sign in and then they need to manually join the groups and projects they need/want.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use GitLab to control our infrastructure as code, scripts, and documentation. We're also beginning to utilize the CI/CD pipeline for automated testing and deployments. The pipeline is much easier to setup than we thought it would be.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We looked into Microsoft Team Foundation Server, but for our purposes of just storing scripts and infrastructure as code, we found GitLab to just be faster and easier to get up and running. GitLab also runs on Git which is a more widely used source control tool.
As far as the setup goes, even if you are not experienced with Linux, it is pretty easy and there is great documentation. The only difficulty may be in getting SSL working, but there is also documentation on that.

Best Tool Ever
What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab group all the tools that you love in a single place. You have a git repository, a git browser, git LFS, an issue management system, scrum boards, merge requests, and a beautiful and easy to use CI tool.
And everything is free. But if you need an extra power, you can always pay to have some state of the art support and some other functionalities.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some awesome features, like reviewers, are just present on the paid version, which is sad :(
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
After we implanted Gitlab, we managed to cut our time-to-market in 74% with the CI tool, and it became easier to manage all our projects. It gave us more visibility.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just use it. It's easy to use, easy to setup, and full of tools to help you solve your problems.

What do you like best about the product?
The built-in features of Auto DevOps have made our experience more rewarding and effective.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still a monolithic application. This is in the process of being fixed, but I'm often worried a failure in one component will take out the entire system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool is able to streamline our entire development workflow. This allows us to inject standard security and compliance gates, create an audit trail, reduce our toolset, reduce the overhead of managing multiple disparate tools and their integrations, and produce customer value faster.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want a holistic solution with a strategy around devops, then this is the solution you need. It provides a lot of native support for devops collaboration. The company also embodies devops and an open and transparent culture. Their company is 100% remote, and almost all of their internal documentation is published publicly so anyone can search it and submit changes back. This includes all of their HR documentation. I highly value the culture of a company when I'm evaluating doing business with someone, and this company ticks all the boxes for a strong culture fit with my company.
Great for large projects, private repos, CI builds, and tight control of the Git environment
What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab offers a free hosted option, but if you need large project sizes, or more projects available the open source omnibus installation for Linux works great!

App requirements a bit steep, my current setup:
i7 4690K, 4 core CPU
16GB ram
virtual box Ubuntu Linux
200GB VDI
100M/bit uplink
