GitLab

What do you like best about the product?
We are just implementing and trying this product out so far the feature that stands out the most is the integration service GitLab CI which can run automated tests after each commit and also automated staging deployments once those tests have run successfully. This is very useful for our testing servers and saves us lots of time since we do not have to manually do this process every time. It basically comes with all the functionality of git which we use at our company which is great. We started using issue tracking which is useful for pointing out bugs in the software so the right developer can fix it.
What do you dislike about the product?
UI is a bit clunky for users, to many clicks for simple tasks. Mattermost is the choice integrated chat, I would rather have slack.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to pull all our processes together into one platform (Version control, issue tracking, planning, automatic builds, code reviewing). We realized GitLab does fill some requirements but I feel GitHub is the better option.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out its cost effective public installation on https://gitlab.com/

Gitlab - light weight source control

  • October 26, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gitlab is cool, straight fwd and easy to use source control, i have been using tfs before i started using gitlab.. it takes a little bit of time to get adjusted to it if somebody is coming from a tfs background
What do you dislike about the product?
As it provides a very flexible branching mechanism, sometimes its a bit messy and difficult to merge the changes and push to master if more ppl are working in same areas using many branches in place
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it as one of our source controls to maintain source and history for few of the apps in place

Excellent repository for projects

What do you like best about the product?
There are many projects available. If you stuck in your project you can surely get a help from someone on gitlab. Project management is good. Project deployment is easy and fast. Best part is it has kubernetes integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Dashboard is not that good. In continuous deployment it has some problem. Mobile UI should also be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using gitlab for exploring new project and fetch some help in my project. it is very good repository
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Gitlab is best for finding solutions to our problem in our project. So anyone who is working on projects should use gitlab

Great for tracking projects across dispersed teams

  • October 26, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GitLab allows us to manage milestones, track issues, create individual due dates, and easily assign team members accordingly. Managing merge requests and commits from the UI makes for quick work. This truly is Git on steroids!
What do you dislike about the product?
We have used the Enterprise Edition Premium while subcontracting for large-scale projects and found it is a bit pricey, but still worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to streamline and organize projects like never before. We are able to do this with a team spread all over the country, but work as communicatively, efficiently and effectively as if we were in the same room.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
GitLab is great for teams both small and large. The features, scalability, and easy-of-use are far superior to other repo management tools out there.

the inline merge conflict resolution, though it is hard to make appear
What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot think of a thing that I would change, or that negatively impacts my git experience in this tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Version Control Systems are a requirement for my industry, and git is the flavor of choice. Gitlab makes peer review and organization of this much easier.

Works well for document control

  • October 25, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that GitLab is open source and can be set up as a private server on our company's intranet. The UI is also simple enough for non-technical members of our team to easily use, but contains all of the features we need. Creating repositories is simple, as is tracking changes. In short, it does all of the basics of what we need it to do.
What do you dislike about the product?
While we use GitLab for a non-standard purpose (version control of documentation). This means that there are no native tools or plugins to let us comp Word documents. I was able to resolve this issue by writing a program to do so, but in terms of plug-and-play, it was a bit disappointing. Installing GitLab was initially a bit of a hassle because of our network settings; we are a branch office and needed to contact corporate to modify some firewall and network settings.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem we have solved with GitLab is keeping track of the most up-to-date versions of a dizzying number of documents. Because using out-of-date documentation has in the past caused critical errors in deployment, GitLab has helped us immeasurably.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't overlook GitLab if you need version control for non-code text/documentation.

"Best software/tech opportunity I've seen in a long time"

  • October 25, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fine grain access control. Inferface easy to use. Emission system / milestones. Continuous integration. Loose notifications. Quick merge requests and code revisions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The implementation of Git may have errors with large repos. The occasional 500 errors and push / pull faults.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Gitlab to set milestones, summarize tasks, track progress, complete code revisions, source control, code exchange.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Listen to your direct reports and the voices of your people, who have a great knowledge and experience in software and technology. They can help shape and shape where we are going in a positive way.
