Great alternative to the industry leader
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Gitlab for the first time in my current company and it is refreshingly similar, while also offering some benefits over competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features are harder to find, for example, branch protection and managing who can push to the master branch vs just feature branches has been tricky. I also dislike the naming for "Merge Request" - why not call it a "Pull Request" like any other git application?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Version control of code, CI pipelines
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Worth giving Gitlab a try over the industry leader.
Gitlab -- The best CI platform available today
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.
Powerful open source DevOps solution
What do you like best about the product?
It has streamlined various softwares, which has ultimately helped me to smooth the balance the continuity of the delivery of services. It is a code review application which basically helps me increase integration frequency and enhance code quality. It is very much concerned about the security and provide WAF bad container host security system. This tool has helped me to see and fix problem with much ease security. I like its two features on the whole that is package management and user and permission management which also enhance more steps regarding the security policy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Gitlab is highly developed product, in the start it was not this much advanced but now it has improved its quality. I really appreciate its services and performance. I am hopeful that it will bring more advancement in the future for the ease of completing our projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Manage your application with GitLab
What do you like best about the product?
This is the most technical tool I came across for having the details analysis of our application and for their better management. Gitlab has enabled be me to monitor deploy and maintain the smooth processing of the ongoing operations. It has collaborated various departments at one platform. Now I can carry out time tracking, source code management, control the service desk and much more. Gitlab has equipped us with integrations that have further helped me in code quality analysis and their testing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Gitlab is a very technical tool a steep learning curve is required for it best use. Moreover its pricing is very high which makes it unavailable for the smaller organizations. Moreover they provide many opportunities for the configuration but it is really very difficult process. Also the interface seems bulky due to so many icons placed on it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This application keeps on modifying and adds new features due to which I never switch to other platforms ads it has empowered me to configure run books and Auto Devops. Moreover it helps me in monitoring the alerts, tracing the errors and loggings. I must say that Gitlab has paved new ways for us to manage our important issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I will highly recommend this tool to the entire business sector it will help you to carry out your daily operations with high precision and provides you a self managed version which will further add to your ease.

Self-hosted code hub
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.

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
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.
IT management is easier
What do you like best about the product?
It has increased our productivity and enabled us to create a software supply chain with built-in package management. It always takes in account all the security steps to keep our data safe. For security measures it provide us ‘secret variables’ , so that only authorized person can have access to the data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes this software runs slowly due to which we have to spend time in its plug in and also much of the time gets wasted in opening cards. Also it is not so user friendly and it theme is not appealing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped me in developing the codes and provides us scalable, single source for collaborating on projects and codes help us to be more productive, I do not face any issue while working. It has helped me to work on remote basis and its easy configuration supports various applications. In all ways it is great platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is strongly recommended to other organizations. However, its integrated CD solution will help you in shipping the code with zero-touch and it automatically monitor metrics, thus informs you about any change in coding which could affect our productivity. Hence, it deals with threat detection and this is something I like about it.
