What differentiates GitLab Ultimate from other similar products?

GitLab fixed a slew of issues, including ticket generation, sprint board management, and code commits. The extent to which various kinds of security testing are offered out of the box in a way that is consistent with the rest of the platform. I also like the capability to simply define security testing pipelines and monitor them.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

GitLab is also employed for continuous integration and deployment in a manufacturing process. We have used the bulk of its capabilities, especially the repo and ticket management. It includes a very user-friendly UI as well as a CI/CD infrastructure that satisfies practically all of our expectations. Our team members' codes can be pulled into our system in a matter of seconds.

What do you dislike most about this product?

GitLab can seem a bit difficult at first. It's especially tough for non-experts from non-software industries to understand GitLab's operations. The platform does not provide a simple and unambiguous means of controlling the repository, so most git activities are better done manually in the console. Upgrades and administration are also challenging.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Software that delivers such a broad range of operational excellence should be included in every company's applications. GitLab enables users to easily store their own code projects and files in a safe and comfortable place, facilitating user collaboration. GitLab easily imports repositories from other Git tools, and it also imports any version history and associated branches.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Efficient Service
  • Client Friendly Policies
  • Altruistic

Project management solution that is simple to use

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates GitLab Ultimate from other similar products?

The testing and vulnerability management features supplied by GitLab are considerably superior to other platforms we've recently used from the standpoint of our security team. Finally, I've found Gitlab to be really useful, particularly in terms of integrating Ci/CD pipelines into our software development cycle for better code quality and faster deployment.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We installed GITLAB on our own servers and configured it to handle a project involving online marketing, applications, development, operations, human resources, and many teams. This relieved us of a significant load. It maintains the high security and flexibility we require to cut check-in times across the company's various divisions. We can also perform code reviews for merging requests and bugs using GitLab. It's also simple to locate the problems.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Only these few aspects of GitLab bother me, it's a little pricey and a little difficult to comprehend for novice users. In comparison to the current method, which I describe as clunky, the request merging process might be much simpler.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

GitLab guarantees that our code is secure and protected, that everything has been versioned, that we can easily communicate with other team members, and that we have a robust QA environment before going live. I use Gitlab, and one of my personal favorites is that we can evaluate the code of our peers, track bugs inside a single merge request, and assign someone to review the merge request.

Pros

  • Continually Improving Product
  • Respectful
  • Altruistic
  • Over Delivered

What differentiates GitLab Ultimate from other similar products?

I used products similar to GitLab and I have come to the conclusion that it is the best CI/CD solution I have implemented. Its cost is very attractive, it allows to store multiple compilations and it can be easily integrated with devops tools like Jenkins.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I like this platform to manage large-scale projects. GitLabs tracks changes to a build, has a well-designed user interface for hosting our source code, and code search.

What do you dislike most about this product?

GitLabs works extremely well.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I recommend connecting Jenkins with GitLab to test builds for optimal GitLab performance.
