Upload your unlimited private projects for free

  • June 05, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are few highly popular Git project uploading sites available. But those sites are focused on Open-source projects and for private projects, user need to have paid subscriptions. I was looking for uploading my git repot to any Git project hosting site also was looking for a free service and here comes Gitlab. A user can upload unlimited private Git projects in their account, create teams or organizations and push project to the organization repo as well and all of these are absolutely free. The best thing is, you can do almost everything what you can do in other popular git sites and here you don't need to pay for that.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI of the Gitlab could be more interactive. Creating Milestone, Label on the fly could be a good UI update. Project Wiki is not a great thing in Gitlab.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a team of remote developers working in common projects from different countries. We host our code primarily in Gitlab (because its free). Our codes are mainly under our team account and each developers fork the code to update. Our CTO/ Lead developer is responsible for merging or rejecting any pull request.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Gitlab is a modern Git Hosting Provider that is already used by a great number of developers. If you want to push your git repo to as private repo, and right now not ready to spend money for it, Gitlab is your best option.

An excellent self-hosted or SaaS code repository

  • June 03, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
An excellent solution for those who like want private or shared repositories and require a on promises or private cloud installation.

Provides great options for code reviewing and developers interactions on merge requests.

Updates both for new features and fixes are frequent.

Access control is fine grained and authentication may be setup to use an external service like LDAP or CAS.

Provides a nice OAuth authentication so 3rd party apps may be easily integrated.

Active open source community with lots of contributions. This way bugs are fixed really quick and new features come out frequently.
What do you dislike about the product?
The less used features have a few usability gotchas.

The frequent updates may overwhelm your operations team if you have too much bureaucracy in the way.

Since its operation relies on git directories that are on the filesystem, high availability options may be little tricky to setup. More distributed options seem to be in the way for enterprise edition but are not yet available at the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Granting access to developer to almost every project in the company.

Encourage contributions across different teams or developers on internal projects.

Allow 3rd party consultants access only to code bases they need.

Achieved compliance on company intellectual property protection.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Assess the use of gitlab by trying the SaaS version on gitlab.com or by using docker images from: https://hub.docker.com/r/gitlab/gitlab-ce/

It is a really great place to store your git repositories

  • June 03, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The community edition is really great. Today we have a community edition installation at the company I'm working for and it works like a charm.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really. The only point that annoys me currently is their number of updates. The product development is really fast paced and it is really difficult to keep it up to date. It annoys but is really great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We don't want to pay an external service to host all of our internal codes and development for various reasons and Gitlab was the best tool we found to do the job.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
In case you need to have all your repositories hosted on your own company servers I really recommend you to pick Gitlab. Their services as an online platform are really good and you may use it for free.

Really good "github like" code repository

  • June 03, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a very feature complete, free and open-source alternative for github.
Gitlab also has no limit for repositories nor users and have on-premisses installation (for community edition).
The features I use most includes markdown readme project page, per project issue tracking, snippets area flexible repository visibility, merge request discussions, automatic acceptance of merge requests including removing source branch among others.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user experience needs some improvements. Sometimes its is not easy (or not so intuitive) to perform very usual for example searching an user by its login.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hundreds of private repositories for dozens of users containing all company projects.
Consultants also have an special/restricted access to some projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to update it frequently. Gitlab throws new features and fixes very often.

Great Experience

  • May 31, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to submit uploads fast and create awesome software.
I really like the team ability. The way we can work together and build software quickly is what enables us to generate large amounts of revenue as a company. I think this product should be used by web development companies over a github because of it's features like an easy integration with slack. It's just a great product overall.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the interface sometimes because its too many clicks.
I really dislike the complexity sometimes that makes it hard to use. The interface is sometimes trying to be too fancy and frankly chooses fanciness over functionality which i think is a mistake when you are building a product that is primarily used by web developers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this to build and push up custom software. It's a great product.
We could not work without this product. It enables us to work as a team by enabling us to push, pull, and merge our code together on a team. It's a pretty amazing product.

Good internal Git server for config management

  • May 27, 2016
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easily installed and managed. Does everything I need in a git server.
What do you dislike about the product?
Interface isn't always intuitive. Hard to find configuration options, and have to go pretty deep to find what I need to change.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A private git repository we can use with many different projects and different user access. For use with both internal and external users if possible.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to setup and use. A bit of a pain to administer, but still cheaper than alternatives.
