What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using GitLab for more than 3 years but till now I could not find any issue with this feature-rich tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My whole team was able to work on the same feature using GitLab. Also, the peer code review feature allowed us to solve several issues before we integrate with the Master branch. Moreover, we have done security penetration testing using the Application Security Testing tool. We have been using this tool as a primary security validation process because it provides a holistic view of our security profile.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This tool is an essential component of our security hardening and validation procedures.

What do you dislike about the product?
GitLab's search capabilities need to be improved to show more accurate results;
Kanban board views of project could use some improvement;
Better explanations and granularity of user permissions and controls;
It lacks some features, and sometimes the menus are really confusing and hard to navigate. There have been some occasional crashes too when you need to restart your server to get it up again;
Sometimes it gets very slow and provides problem to connect or update to the servers. Search is difficult on some pages;

GitLab prevents issues on flow and allows us to achieve our desired results. It is a secure platform with a friendly interface;
Even if GitLab is simple to use, it's a big piece of software that can sometimes become slow on the web user interface. Moreover the review system is sometimes not so easy to use compared to other competitors. Hopefully their are great browser extensions that solves this issues;

Recommendations to others considering the product:
In my opinion, this platform is better designed compared with its competitors. I am a long-time user and have witnessed how GitLab continues to enhance its services. It comes with many great features. My favorite part would be its excellent CI/CD section. It can be navigated with ease and it allows for greater flexibility.
Source control for everything
What do you like best about the product?
I like the flexibility of GitLab. The web version is also amazing as you can use it for free, unless you need some more advanced feature. However there is the possibility to use it on your own server. I think that is the true power of GitLab.
What do you dislike about the product?
I miss the dashboard, like health charts for projects. Also the ui is a bit old school. But I guess it is a subjective opinion. Also it is not well integrated to other source control softwares like sourcetree.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it for code hosting. Also experimenting with the Community Edition to run our own server.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try out CI/CD integration.
Good for small companies and hobby developers
What do you like best about the product?
I like the full functionality which is available even for the free plan. Besides the must have code hosting support, you can configure runners and build jobs. Register your own server to build and deploy your product, so for hobby developers and small companies it is the universal solution for the first years.
What do you dislike about the product?
The website for mobile is not optimised at all, so if you get the notification that your build failed, it is hard to check the result from your mobile. It also has a tricky login button location from mobile, so that part what they could put focus on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are hosting our entire code base on GitLab and also using the CI/CD for building and deploying the application.
Best Code Collaboration Platform For Software Engineering Teams
What do you like best about the product?
GitLab has all the necessary tools helped us manage our software development and deployment processes. Easy to use interface with GUI and Git capabilities, support for CI-CD tools, branches, and runners. Software development is easier as multiple teams can collaborate easily by right permissions and security for private repositories. All the code changes and quality can be easily checked with the correct integrations. Overall a great tool for small to big working software teams to help ship and release the software's easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
The things to dislike would be the fact that Gitlab's pipelines processses are bit slow, after deployment changes are reflected after 10mins, it can be be speed up. Also there is a critical problem when it comes to rebasing and non-mergable commits, sometimes cherrypicking and merging several MR's is a nightmare when someone had to deal with a large repo with multiple teams working at the same time, this process can be improved with some intelligent solutions. Overall othewise, I would say the Gitlabs team works hard to document and give updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Gitlab for all our software repositories for our company. Different teams working at different modules and microservices utilize Gitlab to collaborate, test, maintain and deploy easily. Gitlab has helped in easy management of repos, permissions, containerization of applications and improvise our overall Devops cycle. That giving said we have saved a lot of time and improved software development processes. A centralized place for all our development and devops team has made our products ship and scale faster.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a complete open source culture for Devops or Orchestration for your Software Engineering Teams, GitLab is a good choice for small to enterprise requirements. As you can easily manage permissions, repo access and setup end-to-end development to deployment processes with GitLab, its easier than ever to deal with code quality and delivery. It has all the integrations and documentations required to enable your team to have quality discussions over the engineering and Devops processes under one roof. So Highly recommended.
One place solution for all of Enterprise code management needs
What do you like best about the product?
GitLab has all code management related features at one place. Apart from repository maintenance and the version control system, it provides
* Extensive CI/CD support (GitLab Runners)
* Issues management through Boards, storing and sharing code snippets.
* It has made code/repo access control across teams and members much easier.
The best part is that all these features are available at a single place and are intuitively accessible. This eliminated context switches between multiple products for issues, CI/CD, docs by providing all of them under one hood.

What do you dislike about the product?
GitLab doesn't have a follow user/member support, this makes it difficult to see a particular user's activity in the activity feed. Although it supports the general repository starring, which allows you to track a repo's activity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use GitLab for maintaining repositories, CI/CD pipelines, managing issues, configuring access control for my team and group repositories
* GitLab Boards has made code issues management 2x easier, it eliminates the need to switch between multiple products.
* Groups and repos for groups provides granular member access control when compared to other alternatives
* Maintaining & sharing code snippets at group, repo level has rendered effective to seamlessly share code among team members
