My experience with Gitlab
What do you like best about the product?
The best part for me personally about Gitlab Is the ease of use. As someone in the software industry, who commits to multiple repositories , gitlab provides one stop, easy to use and understand solution, making it very easy and convenient for me to navigate through code bases.
What do you dislike about the product?
While rare in occurrence, the gitlab servers were sometimes unavailable. I also sporadically faced slow checkouts for large codebases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most important feature is Gitlab pipelines. Setting up automated test reviews and builds has made the workflow in my organization extremely seamless and efficient.
Gitlab Review
What do you like best about the product?
In Gitlab we can easily maintain different version of our code/project which really helpful and makes development and maintaince process very easy. From my experience with giltab I think it is one of the best version control tools and is very easy to use and setup.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface of gitlab look old and is not self explanatory. Which sometimes makes it hard to use. If the user interface and support is made better than it will be the best version control tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1- With gitlab maintaing code is very easy and it makes the deployment process faster.It also helps in mainataince part as you can easily deploy/compare the code with earlier version.
2- Peer to peer review is also very easy using gitlab and it helps in mainating code quality. Which makes development easy.
3- Gitlab is very secure and it has features like Single sign on and multifactor authentication.

Gitlab Review
What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is open source version control repository to store code in repository,and provide branching strategy to store code in seperate branch and later we can merge to other branch or intoaster branch, and also create version history,provide CICD process to automate the department process.
What do you dislike about the product?
As beginner it is little much complex to user once hand get dirty on gitlab it's very easy to use and Some time when I commit a code from local, not able to connect with gitlab, and little bit complicated to implement CICD.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It was not easy to maintain a code locally using gitlab my code are secure and well managed and resolved conflict of multiple projects code
that is good and easy to use gitlab.
What do you like best about the product?
multiple project management and command line interface and controlled access.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, nothing to dislike find all things confirtable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In developing the application with team .
Good repository management tool
What do you like best about the product?
All the code written by the team is collaborated on GitLab. Its interface is also very user friendly. All members work simultaneously, and development becomes fast. Changes are tracked easily too.
What do you dislike about the product?
All is going good so far, sometimes, issues come during merge. When there is conflict, and difference in 2 files needs to be seen, it sometimes stops working, or gives wrong results. This is 1 minor issue which was observed twice only.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multiple people working on code creates issues in duplicacy and conflicts. GitLab makes working concurrently on common repository pretty easy. Everybody is able to check the changes made by others, so tracking is also maintained.
Secure & Ease of use
What do you like best about the product?
I was using SVN earlier from using Gitlab, and I was told by my employer to switch to Gitlab first I was a little skeptical that this would not be an upgrade, but I was wrong there as when I started using Gitlab the community of this product helped me a lot as it has a vast community of developers in different platforms like StackOverflow and Reddit.
The best part of this product which I liked the most is revert & cherry-pick commands which basically helped code review meetings better and I can just see all the logs and revert the issue commit within a few seconds

What do you dislike about the product?
Since GitLab is mainly for private projects there are little downsides to it as well for instance, there are times when I have seen GitLab down and had to search on the web for its solution. This is never or very rare issue with Github or SVN.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As I said the cherry-pick command and revert command helped me a lot as there was a time when I used to write code and then when I needed to cherry-pick the code to the other branch for a different web environment I had to struggle a lot with code complying and code duplicacy. But after cherry-pick and the great UI of the software I can easily track and resolve the issue when reverting changes.
It also helped me good amount with code review and peer review.

Best CI/CD Interface
What do you like best about the product?
It provides a better view of building and managing pipelines, unlike bitbucket. I personally find it very smooth & easy to host code bases and build CI/CD pipelines.
What do you dislike about the product?
Managing the pull request view could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To build & manage repos and CI/CD pipelines and also for peer review. We are using it in our a few projects.
Powerful and pleasant to use.
What do you like best about the product?
Its GUI is aesthetically pleasant, and it is significantly more powerful than GitHub in most regards - project-level issues are brilliant, as are arbitrarily deep git repository hierarchies, dissimilarly to GitHub's mere org/project standardization.
What do you dislike about the product?
Per https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/419013, a user must be notified of every event in an issue's lifecycle in order to be notified when it has been remediated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It hosts my code with its git synchronization and hostage functionality, and it hosts and provides access to online documents with its Snippets functionality. Additionally, because of its API, I use it to store important personal information due to how detailed its profiles are.

A scalable tool with an easy initial setup phase useful for building new connectors and preparing scripts
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
GitLab's scoop is like a lifesaver. It's very crucial for us in our company to use some of those scripts from GitLab, either for health checks or building new connectors is very important for us, and at times, with GitLab, you don't even need to build the connectors.
What needs improvement?
Some of the scripts that we encountered in GitLab were not fully functional and threw up errors. The aforementioned area of the solution needs improvement.
In the future, I would like to see GitLab providing more oversight over the coding part.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using GitLab for a couple of years. I use the solution's latest version.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a stable solution and seems to be a well-tested product with no issues. I rate the stability a nine out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is a scalable solution. There are a lot of users on GitLab, so it is a highly scalable product. I rate the scalability a nine out of ten.
GitLab has only two users, including myself, in our company.
We don't have plans in our company to increase the number of users in future.
How are customer service and support?
The solution's technical support is pretty good. If you go on Stack Overflow platform, you can find technical support there. The product's technical team is knowledgeable, responds quickly, and is customer friendly.
I rate the technical support a nine out of ten.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup of GitLab is pretty simple, with no complications.
The deployment process took less than an hour, which means it can be done in around 45 minutes.
The solution can be deployed on the cloud or on-premises version by installing the EXE file.
Only one junior engineer is required for deployment and maintenance.
What about the implementation team?
The deployment phase can be done by yourself, in-house.
What was our ROI?
The ROI has been good since we have had no issues so far.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My company uses the free version of GitLab, which is GitLab Community Edition. There is a licensed version also available for GitLab.
What other advice do I have?
I would tell those planning to use the solution to try developing their own scripts in GitLab and then try to download them from the repository there. You build your knowledge while helping others as well.
I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.
