Overall Satisfaction with Gitlab
It is being used as one of our git-repository management services inside the company. We host there some of our projects and take advantage of their continuous integration and continuous deployment mechanisms to build a more solid and robust codebase.
It allows us to work collaboratively by simplifying code review processes through merge requests.

- Built-in continuous integration
- Built-in continuous deployment
- Wiki supports
- Easy collaboration between members of a team
- I wish they said `Pull Request` instead of `Merge Request`.
- Smaller community than GitHub for Open Source projects.
- It has helped us catch more bugs by preventing merge requests when CI catches a bug.
We selected Gitlab due to its right away capabilities for continuous integration and continuous deployment.
I believe the decision-taker did not like Microsoft's involvement with GitHub.
As the projects are closed source we did not take into consideration the size of the communities in GitHub or Gitlab.
