No complaints. Gitlab is a great service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Clean and Simple
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is at a minimum; a complete replacement for JIRA and BitBucket for enterprise software development usage.
It gives you a somewhat clean interface and navigation to allow you to traverse the website with ease which is almost lacking with most web applications that just give you the bare minimum.
It gives you what it says it gives you, it is a platform for source versioning which also has its own build pipeline or you can also use your own by using their webhooks.

What do you dislike about the product?
The interface sometimes feels quite unintuitive but I get that they're still a budding software so hopefully we'll see something better later on
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I've said, It is a complete replacement for JIRA and BitBucket hence the ticketing system, CI and Source Versioning is on point
fantastic tool for development teams
What do you like best about the product?
This product is extremely easy to learn how to use and teach others how to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every now and then I end up in with a 3 way merge which can be tricky to resolve. Normally takes a couple times to get it done correctly. Don't see an easy way around these so it is just best to check in your code often to avoid this situation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Use of this tool allows you to quickly and easily see what modifications have been done to a file prior to the final commit to the system.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a very good product to use. I use to use SVN so it was an adjustment having a web perspective of the content. I would though suggest finding good resources on administrating the installation and how to customize the features, auto builds and preventing others from pushing code to main branches by accident.
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.
Not more useful than GitHub
What do you like best about the product?
It's generally a privatized interface, so only really visible for our company. The actual GUI is actually prettier too which is nice. Navigating to certain pages is a little easier too. Obviously, having version control for software development should be a requirement, and it's better than SVN which some of our...more senior colleagues use. Searching for specific code/scripts on gitlab appears to be easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
In our integration, we lack several features available on other git clients such as github. The inline rendering of notebooks on Github, as well as the much simpler ability to share with external users is a huge plus for getting feedback and usage information. Also no trending repos to see any cool new ideas people have come up with is a minus. Furthermore, the ease of linking issues/repos/pull requests across other posts is less clear.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The obvious one- having version controlled software visible to the entire team. Moreso, having the ability to collaborate over large codebases while having wikis and other documentation in the same place, making it easy to figure out how to use other user's software. Lastly, the ability to see WHEN code is updated helps us ensure goals are being met.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
GitHub offers more features and a much larger base for collaboration. If you need a very specific instance/implementation of git that's more customizable, my understanding is that GitLab may be for you. Probably more useful for confidential code bases.
efficient, can trace back, easy to collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
good for team work: each contributor push and pull progress and contribute to main
What do you dislike about the product?
maybe the user guide could be more organized and "friendly" for beginners
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we need to collaborate to finish the project, it is impossible to get that done by one person/one computer, so everyone contributes to Gitlab
Gitlab
What do you like best about the product?
The Gitlab runners were one can integrate a pipeline test that runs when a commit is made. This test can be hooked up to AWS so for example, if you have code that creates AWS resources, the Gitlab runner can test creating said resource to make sure it works.
What do you dislike about the product?
Finding settings can be a pain- it could be streamlined a bit.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it as our team Git repository
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.
Decent GIT server if you decide to not use git hub.
What do you like best about the product?
Is pretty reliable and handles a large amount of traffic. The ability to tag people and view usable diffs is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free version is lacking some real features, such as re-submitting failed merge requests. Also if a merge request is re-submitted it doesn't want to automatically merge on success.
The code review features seem lacking.
The code review features seem lacking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were replacing our old SVN with a git install, and some of decision makers didn't like the idea of 3rd party source hosting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do a real analysis of whether it is worthwhile to use gitlab as opposed to simply subscribing to GitHub. There is also a lack of features without paying for GitLab.
The most generous collaboration platform
What do you like best about the product?
I like it's ui/ux which probably the most intuitive between it's competitors, but what I like the best is it's FREE Unlimited private Repository, if you are sole developer or a small company this is a generous gift for all.
What do you dislike about the product?
I know this is a feature but i kind of uncomfortable by it's overly protective rules that by default strict us to do a force push, also it had a lack of features on code reviews, there are code reviews but it just not as good as it's competitors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Code versioning, collaboration tools, and project management
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Why you have to pay if you can have free for similar service, you could save your money for your developers.
