It helps us track code changes and roll back bugs. It allows us to visualize the workflow in a clear and agile way by allowing us to organize tasks in labeled columns. Allows us to automate testing and deployment of software, improving delivery time. Ensures software quality through automated testing. > > **Cons**: There have been no problems using this platform, it is efficient and works correctly. > > Our company is always in a constant process of innovation and technological emancipation, tools like GitLab are part of a set of essential tools to store code and allow secure access to access new code updates, this optimizes the workflow improving the performance of our developers. It allows to automate tasks, detect vulnerabilities and assign a developer to fix them. Easily adapts to any project, no matter how complex. It helps us to make a complete tracking of incidents to prioritize and resolve any problem. ----- ### "Open source source code management tool" — 4.0/5 > **Ghanshyam** | *March 7, 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is open source, and you can deploy it on your own server. > > **Cons**: Set up his complex compared to GitHub, the documentation can be more better. > > I had been using GitLab for more than two years now, it seems to a great, but sometimes it become quite laggy. ----- ### "My experience with GitLab" — 3.0/5 > **Evandro Cláudio** | *October 23, 2024* | Accounting Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It has the same usability has other git services and I feel that there are more engaging > > **Cons**: Not many people recommend or use it, although is has similar capabilities. > > I have use it to create a website called PAPOO that's not finished yet but overall was great working with this platform. ----- ### "Strong all-in-one platform for development workflows" — 4.0/5 > **Parsa** | *July 1, 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It brings source control, CI/CD, and task tracking into one place. It makes development workflows easier to manage and gives teams better visibility across code, builds, and delivery. > > **Cons**: The interface can feel dense at times, especially for newer users. Some workflows are not as intuitive as they could be, and performance can occasionally feel a bit heavy. ----- ### "GitLab is perfect for company code and can even be hosted locally" — 5.0/5 > **Charles** | *April 30, 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that GitLab is not as large as Microsoft who recently acquired GitHub. They also from the beginning were focused more on the private git code for companies. > > **Cons**: Since they focus on the company more than the open source it means that more open source is hosted on GitHub and that means I need to know two platforms since we use OSS as well. > > They continue to innovate and I'm happy with the company. I'm glad they are competing with GitHub so we have more than one good solution. ----- Page: 1 / 50\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/112635/gitlab?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/112635/gitlab) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
