We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I like that it's easy to deploy our services over GitLab. The customer support is also good with a really active community. You have a lot of support that you can get online with your stack. That is probably one of the benefits of using GitLab. It's also really fast.""It is a speedy platform compared to the others I have used. I have also enjoyed using the platform as this solution offers a good user experience.""GitLab is kind of an image of GitHub, so it gives us the flexibility to monitor our changes in the repos.""CI/CD is valuable for me.""GitLab offers a good interface for doing code reviews between two colleagues.""The most valuable functionality of GitLab, for me, is the DevOps. Besides the normal source control based on Git, I find the Auto DevOps features most important in the solution.""GitLab's best features are continuous integration and fast deployment.""For us, Gitlab's most valuable feature is the integration with Cypress. We're using Cypress as an automation tool, so we're using GitLab as a tool for running in parallel."

More GitLab Pros →

"The platform has some amazing features and the integration option makes it very simple to plug with any of our favorite tools.""Testing against multiple run times, versions, and environments is a plus point with the additional pipelines making it more interesting to see what is happening across your development process in a single pane of glass."

Cons
"There is a need to improve or adopt AI into the ecosystem like a co-pilot, which Microsoft has done with GitHub.""I'm new to GitLab, so I would appreciate more documentation about the code and commands.""I would like to have some features to support peer review.""I would like more Agile features in the Premium version. The Premium version should have all Agile features that exist in the Ultimate version. IBM AOM has a complete Agile implementation, but in GitLab, you only have these features if you buy the Ultimate version. It would be good if we can use these in the Premium version.""GitLab's UI could be improved.""GitLab can improve by integrating with more tools, such as servers with Docker.""The user interface could be more user-friendly. We do most of our operations through the website interface but it could be better.""Even if I say I want some improvement, they will say it is already planned in the first quarter, second quarter, or third quarter. That said, most everything is quite improved already, and they're improving even further still."

"They could work on reducing the number of permissions required while using Bitbucket."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I think that we pay approximately $100 USD per month."
  • "The price is okay."
  • "It seems reasonable. Our IT team manages the licenses."
  • "Its price is fine. It is on the cheaper side and not expensive. You have to pay additionally for GitLab CI/CD minutes. Initially, we used the free version. When we ran out of GitLab minutes, we migrated to the paid version."
  • "It is very expensive. We can't bear it now, and we have to find another solution. We have a yearly subscription in which we can increase the number of licenses, but we have to pay at the end of the year."
  • "I don't mind the price because I use the free version."
  • "We are using its free version, and we are evaluating its Premium version. Its Ultimate version is very expensive."
  • "The price of GitLab could be better, it is expensive."
