Overall Satisfaction with GitLab
we use it for version control and ci/cd based docker deployment via AWS deployments
Pros
Cons
- While GitLab offers role-based access control, more granular permissions at the project and group levels could provide better security and flexibility. For instance, the ability to restrict specific actions (e.g., merge, push) on a more granular level would be useful.
- GitHub has a more extensive marketplace for apps and integrations compared to GitLab
- GitLab's mobile app needs a lot of improvements. The coverage of features in the app is weak
- Ability to deploy directly from GitLab has reduced dependency on a separate devops resource.
we have used GitLab paid plans but havent explored security side of things
Often what happens is that introducing one new feature leads to bug in another feature unknowingly. Automated testing ensures that this doesn't happen by running all these these tests during CI and GitLab enables it very well
