Gitlab is Great!

  • April 10, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is a solid product with a simple user interface. It is very easy to use and manage merge requests, todos, and small issues all in one place. The code review tools are great, and all team members can easily write comments and share feedback with the rest of the team.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few small bugs with the platform. For example, when a file in a merge request is defaulted to collapsed due to its length, the number of additions and deletions will not reflect the real total value, creating a minor inconvenience. The online merge conflict resolution is also error-prone, and I'd recommend resolving any merge conflicts locally and using Gitlab to review afterwards. The Issues feature is nice, but I'd recommend using another product to manage the tracking of larger issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GitLab is a great, competitively priced version control platform. There are a few bugs and improvements that could be made, but overall I'm very happy with my and my team's experience. Gitlab helps drive efficiency by greatly reducing the time required to go from a dev saying their code is complete, to actually getting their code merged into the master branch due to the easy to use code review tooling and Todos feature.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Gitlab is a great product and worth considering as a version control host.

GitLab is adequate, but code review tools could be better

  • March 29, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Integration with git.
Code Review tools - we did not have anything before we started using GitLab, so even though there is room for improvement, it is better than what we had.
What do you dislike about the product?
Large merge requests are difficult to review.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides git version control; git has helped us maintain and release our product more in line with industry standards as well as helped us streamline our processes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ensure that proper authority and permissions are configured properly.

Less well-known but awesome software versioning system.

What do you like best about the product?
The interface is clean and easy to navigate. It has regular updates adding new features mostly relating to project planning and management. It has the option to make repositories private without additional costs.

Sometimes the interface changes a bit after a update making it annoying to find commonly used functions.

Software versioning system with the clearest interface

  • March 16, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The overview if you have many projects is great. It is clear to see what activity has taken place on each project while you were away. The application is updated often and they add alot of functionalities relating to project planning/Agile.
What do you dislike about the product?
The common updates are often accompanied by UI changes, which means that after each update they move some common features around. This is a minor inconvenience, since it means I often 'lose' commonly used functions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team uses Gitlab for software versioning of our companies various projects. It allows our team to stay connected on each others progress and provide comments and discussion on issues and code.

Gitlab - Review in detail

  • January 08, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is a great tool, loosely based on github, to share, collaborate work. It allows easy upload of your work, retrieve others work and base your work on theirs instantly. Great command line tool. Allows creation of tickets (issues), and also auto resolves the issues once code has been checked in. Allows public and private repo which is great. The UI is also great, with drag and drop features in many areas.
What do you dislike about the product?
1. Merge request allows only one reviewer.
2. Code rebase in UI never works if it is behind by more than one commit.
3. Through UI, you cannot drag and drop multiple files. This is bad as even github has this feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Everyday source control with 20 odd team members is done through gitlab. Never has anyone lost their code because of a gitlab flaw.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out, has pretty good UI features combined with command line git commands. Must know for any coding novice.

Gitlab is a great fast growing in house source code management system

  • January 02, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a devops engineer it was very easy to set up.
What do you dislike about the product?
The update process is a little cumbersome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its an in house SCM. Its community edition is free. Hence, the best use for it is to keep source code private and secure for free!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an easy to set up, free SCM system, Gitlab is your best option. It allows you to host your repositories privately in your own cloud or in house servers and come with an array of features that rivals gitHubs own.
