Gitlab: really make a difference

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates GitLab Ultimate from other similar products?

The most significant difference in user experience is GitLab’s dedication to CI and a DevOps workflow.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

In the GitLab workflow, you create multiple stable branches beyond the master, usually at least production and pre-production. That means a multiple-step testing process where a single code review upon the merge request isn’t enough.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would recommand that first do your research and make sure that your requirements are predefined. It will help you to get the rigth product for you.

Pros

Continually Improving Product
