Amazing application for collaboratively development

What do you like best? Gitlab graph tracing, interactive rebase and merge done using UI are really awesome but apart from that gitlab ci cd and easy to manage project development with version controlling and peer code review are the must use stuff. What do you dislike? Just sometimes git comments give me headache. Recommendations to others considering the product: Highly recommended for every developer. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you ...

Gitlab

What do you like best? With Gitlab free version we could have unlimited private repository, one of the big advantages that I see that made me migrate from the Github. GIthub only allow me to have the public repository for free. Where I work they also use Gitlab with Jenkins integration and it works perfect. I also love the Gitlab for not being owned by Microsoft. I like they are independent and hope they receive a lot of migrations from big projects that are current on Github. My ...

Why we chose GitLab and never looked back

What do you like best? With GitLab we didn't just store our source code. we also used it as our main CI/CD system. Once we started using it we didn't look back. Creating pipeline is easy, building docker images, storing them with release tags, integrating with Cloud provider such as AWS, to quickly launch runners with different instance types for different GitLab jobs. All of those just work. Creating a GitLab CI Template allowed us to run multiple projects pipelines from a ...

Look up and you'll see GitLab

What do you like best? GitLab has been my go-to got platform for about 2 years now. I was presented to it by the team I joined back them, my first impression was "Wow, this looks a lot nicer than GitHub", as I am a sucker for good UI/UX. With experience on the platform I became more and more impressed with the whole ecosystem GitLab provides, from a project management stand and a developer stand, GitLab features a lot of tools to aid software teams. For me, the most impressive part ...

A Wonderful tool for your Digital Transformation

What do you like best? This is the tool for CI/CI,building boards and tracking issues from start to finish. I have used it to help diagnose work fatigue and help our colleagues determine the velocity of work. It makes commits and changes easy. I wouldn't leave home without it. What do you dislike? Jumping into the tool requires some basic training. In our world of operations, it took a few weeks for people to understand the flow of the tool. They have a lot of great documentation on ...

GitLab Review

What do you like best? I really like GitLab because it makes Git more understandable. There is a really nice user interface to configure, analyze and control your Git repositories on a server. GitLab allows you to restrict user permissions, so you can control who is able to see your repositories or who is allowed to change the repositories. Furthermore your can use automatic compilation, CI/CD and a lot of other tools.This is also very interesting for companies. What do you dislike? ...

Collaboration with the entire project team is easy, excellent version. All the tools are available.

What do you like best? GitLab does a great job at creating a experience for newly developers. We previously had several best-of solutions, co-exist between our team, but we managed to consolidate this into a single solutions, which meets most of our needs. What do you dislike? Just the UI can be difficult at times when first understanding how to use it and the other is aspect I find annoying is user management right now, otherwise all the things are good to me. Recommendations to ...

GitLab is adequate, but code review tools could be better

What do you like best? Integration with git. Code Review tools - we did not have anything before we started using GitLab, so even though there is room for improvement, it is better than what we had. What do you dislike? Large merge requests are difficult to review. Recommendations to others considering the product: Ensure that proper authority and permissions are configured properly. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? ...
