Likelihood to Recommend It's helpful that the tool takes URL parameters into account but that requires the URL structure to be of desired quality, to begin with. This tool is best suited for those working off of solid foundation in terms of web presence
Read full review GitLab is good if you work a lot with code and do complex repository actions. It gives you a very good overview of what were the states of your branches and the files in them at different stages in time. It's also way easier and more efficient to write pipelines for CI\CD. It's easier to read and it's easier to write them. It takes fewer clicks to achieve the same things with GitLab than it does for competitor products.
Read full review Pros Limit software options - prevents rework time Allows for beta testing - allows for better later buy-in Read full review GitLab excels in managing code versions, allowing easy tracking of changes, branch management, and merging contributions. It helps maintain code stability and reliability, saving time and effort in the development or research workflow. Powerful code review features, enabling collaboration and feedback among team members. Robust project management features, including issue tracking, kanban boards, and milestones. Read full review Cons More help/how-to literate or use cases. Conditional logic could be improved. More dynamic interface. Read full review CI variables management is sometimes hard to use, for example, with File type variables. The scope of each variable is also hard to guess. Access Token: there are too many types (Personal, Project, global..), and it is hard to identify the scope and where it comes from once created. Runners: auto-scaled runners are for the moment hard to put in place, and monitoring is not easy. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Gitlab is the best in its segment. They have a free version, they have open-source software, they provide a good service with their SaaS product, they are a fully-remote company since the beginning (which means they are fully distributed and have forward-thinking IMO). I would certainly recommend them to everyone.
Read full review Usability I find it easy to use, I haven't had to do the integration work, so that's why it is a 9/10, cause I can't speak to how easy that part was or the initial set up, but day to day use is great!
Read full review Support Rating I'm not sure about the support ....we didn't use it.
Read full review At this point, I do not have much experience with Gitlab support as I have never had to engage them. They have documentation that is helpful, not quite as extensive as other documentation, but helpful nonetheless. They also seem to be relatively responsive on social media platforms (twitter) and really thrived when
GitHub was acquired by Microsoft
Read full review Alternatives Considered Togglz has more detailed documentation and recurring updates. But the
Togglz default setting to "HTTP" caused some glitches.
Read full review Gitlab seems more cutting-edge than
GitHub ; however, its AI tools are not yet as mature as those of CoPilot. It feels like the next-generation product, so as we selected a tool for our startup, we decided to invest in the disruptor in the space. While there are fewer out-of-the-box templates for Gitlab, we have never discovered a lack of feature parity.
Read full review Return on Investment The cost of a programmer is certainly a ticket to budget. Neg The cost savings of limiting operational database errors is certainly more positive than the negative just mentioned. Read full review GitLab cut down our spent on container, package and infrastructure registry Best thing is we can now have everything in single platform which cost effective too Quality of support is really good and they do have emergency support team as well which is great Read full review ScreenShots
