Advantages and limitations of Gitlab , from my perspective.
What do you like best about the product?
Githab provides us with a code quality function. With this tool, we get to analyze the quality of our source code. Ensuring that they are kept simple , easy to maintain and readable .
What do you dislike about the product?
Gitlab lacks adequate analytical functionality for pipeline tracking, meaning that it does not have robust tools for tracking the progress of our software development pipeline. This makes it tedious for my team to get a comprehensive overview of our development process, monitor performances , and make data-driven decisions. However, it's worth noting that GitLab has been constantly improving its features in this aspect. Nevertheless, it is still lacking compared to other specialized tools that are specifically designed for pipeline tracking and analytics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Github's ability to automate entire continuous integration and continuous deployment ( CI/CD ) workflow , is unmatched by any other Git platform. By automating our entire CI/CD workflow, we are successfully creating secure code releases, better implementing guardrails to safeguard our deployments and deploying our applications across multiple and diverse cloud infrastructure.
