"very useful and easy to use ci/cd pipeline tool"

5/5

What do you like best about GitLab?

I like how easy it is to create pipelines with jobs and stages, use of variables and the concept of default runners and also ability to configure custom runners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitLab?

The configuration of default runners is unknown - unless we run a particular command like uname Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GitLab solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prior to using gitlab, i was building my code on a VM. when the VM went down or the network was down I was stuck. Also space was a constraint on VM with multple users using to store their files and build code.

moving to gitlab and having multiple projects eased this situation.

Also with the concept of branches I could have multiple flavors and options to achieve different functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Version management software for developers"

5/5

What do you like best about GitLab?

1. It is a very useful software for code management.

2. We can manage our code of project into gitlab. We can manage our code by creating branch like master, staging, develop, feature and etc.

3. It is a version control software.

4. It is a open source software and easy to implementation. It can be used for DevOps.

5. We can do any integration into gitlab like CI/CD.

6. Many companies are mostly used this software for managing their code and documents as well.

7. This platform is very secure for security and we can track our project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitLab?

1. Sometime we were facing problem like intergration error.

2. There are some command facing issue like merge conflict.

3. We need some public repository on gitlab but unfortunatly it is not present in gitlab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GitLab solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before using GitLab, we had to manage our code directly on the server. However, this sometimes led to code being accidentally deleted, making recovery very difficult.

With GitLab, we can easily access all our code by using branches and previous commits. This is because GitLab is a version control tool, which is not only reliable but also user-friendly for DevOps teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
