Overall Satisfaction with GitLab

The first time I got acquainted with Gitlab was in 2016 when we were developing a complex project of an online adaptive learning platform. We used the self-hosted version back then, and it's still used in this project. In the organization where I currently work, we first used BitBucket, but then I implemented GitLab and we successfully migrated to it. We use GitLab now not only for version control but also for automating uploads to servers.

Pros

  • Version control.
  • CI/CD.
  • Code review.

Cons

  • Access right management.
  • UI needs to be improved.
  • Development processes improvement.
  • DevOps improvement.
Gitlab was the first product to offer a wide range of features, including private repositories, for free. This is very important for startups that cannot afford to spend an extra dollar.
Sure, we are using CI feature and it helps us to reduce validation problems at least by 50%.

Do you think GitLab delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Did GitLab live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of GitLab go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy GitLab again?

Yes

The undeniable advantage of Gitlab is in the features that are in the free version, including storing large files. Gitlab's downside is that it's a bit more complex than its well-known competitor.
