GitLab Reviews

Overall, GitLab is a must-have tool to store code repositories and for collaboration by any organization. It has multiple various tools that makes using git easy.

- GitLab provides a user-friendly user interface to version control the and collaborate with teams on projects.
- Admin can assign various roles to the developer, providing him limited control over the code base.
- Code comparison user interface is intuitive and helps a lot in reviewing the code before merging.
- It is free to use for personal use.

- Merge conflicts can be a bit tricky to resolve sometimes because of the instruction.

Overall, GitLab is a great collaborative development tool. If I was setting up a new project from scratch once again I would probably choose this tool over its competitors if the development team was compromised of technically skilled users. Gitlab does require more in-depth individual setup then certain competitors for proper communication which can be a challenge for some users.

The UI and baseline features are a great asset to this, I generally prefer the GitLab UI, especially the online UI as compared to Github. GitLab also offered when I last configured it more free options than Github, especially in regard to branch management. That said the biggest advantage this used to have as compared to Github was that Gitlab allowed private development for free while Github did not, that said Github changed this in prior years so both are solid choices.

My main issue with GitLab when trying to use it on freeware projects was that it is more technically challenging to setup than Github. The need to manually get SSH keys can be challenging for those less skilled with technical capabilities. For example, setting up other similar tools such as Github on a project that has various contributors both those with coding abilities as well as less technical roles such as writers or graphic developers, there is the potential for misunderstanding and difficulties in setup.

GitLab is a great alternative to GitHub, featuring more capable CI/CD tooling and vulnerability checking built in.

- beautiful interface
- very feature rich, especially in terms of built in CI/CD tooling, which is better than GitHub
- built in software license scanning and vulnerability checking
- free tier for individuals

- smaller community and less shared open-source projects

Gitlab has been a great platform for me to share my projects and code with my teammate so that they can work remotely and improve the project. Its support verified license such as MIT which helps to verify project owner.

It helps me to publish my open source code and share them which my teammates and discuss changes and improve my project with the help of everyone.
Also, we can test and deploy code on master repos via CI/CD integrations and other frameworks support.

No cons in Gitlab, it's the best platform I have ever used.

Basically helps to maintain code easily. It is free to every one to use and we can also set it on local servers.

Free to use also can use their server with a free account.
We can create or maintain our own repositories/branches.
It shows all code changes file by file. Also when there is a conflict in our commit it shows how to resolve step by step.
As well as easy to compare between two branches.

Sometimes thats a bit slow but you can work usually around there. Otherwise no cons for this tool.
