Overall Satisfaction with GitLab

We use Gitlab for issue tracking on ci/cd pipelines, It is an open-source program and it does support multiple users and repositories. we can also control the permission of repositories. multiple users can access uploaded files and make changes to them if needed. It does have the option to raise issues. We can also able to store our credentials in it. It is easy to understand even for a new user and auto-suggestion of codes is very useful.

Cons

  • Many of free features are now restricted
  • At times there are some issues with user permission and controls
  • It does have a free plan which is only for individuals but when it comes to the pro version cost seems to be a bit high.
  • UI is simple and easy to use
  • It is free to use for individuals
  • Able to easily collaborate with team and make changes easily
  • Pricing of pro version is bit high
The user interface of GitLab is clean and easy to use. It also allows us to create a free private repository. When compared to GitHub we can easily maintain our codes in GitLab.
We do use Gitlab's paid plans but we do not use any of their security plans.
CI/CD plays the most crucial role in our organization. It does help us to deploy our code faster. We use merge requests to review the code to avoid errors in code.
