153 GitLab Testimonials

"We chose GitLab because it’s the industry standard, and a good open source project for any development process."

"GitLab benefits our students because it is a real-world platform. That is invaluable."

"The biggest value (of GitLab) is that it allows the development teams to have a greater role in the deployment process. Previously only a few people really knew how things worked, and now pretty much the whole development organization knows how the CI pipeline works, can work with it, add new services, and get things into production without infrastructure being the bottleneck."

“GitLab made it easier for all developers to work with CI/CD pipelines, making the process of bootstrapping a new service much more transparent and approachable and removing the DevOps/SRE team as a bottleneck.”

“Without GitLab, we'd be wasting engineering time with lots of individual little servers being managed around the world. We would probably have a lot more headaches and still be suffering with scalability problems.”

“CD has at least 10 times better success rate than manual deploy. We have projects in which automatic deployment has never failed.”

“Going into full automated DevOps is key for a software group like ours. Our Gitlab instance is the cornerstone of what we call the digital enablement platform internally, which is really the mean to enable our team to do cloud native development in a full automated DevOps mode.”

“Within a year, we never had a case of not meeting a deadline because we had to spend time working on the CI pipeline or something related to the tooling. That has never been the case.”

“One tool just makes life easier. It's just less stuff to manage. When you use too many tools you end up having one thing over here and other items over there. This leads to struggles around keeping tasks together and keeping everything up to date.”

“We did an extensive analysis of multiple tools as we considered a solution that would fit all the requirements of an organization as big as GNOME. We had a set of hard requirements, with the most important one being that it must be free software, ideally not only in license but also in spirit.”

"We applaud GitLab for dropping their CLA in favor of a more OSS-friendly approach. Open source communities are born from a sea of contributions that come together and transform into projects. This gesture affirmed GitLab's willingness to protect the individual, their creative process, and most importantly, keeps intellectual property in the hands of the creator."

"We have a very strong scientific background, and we love to make experiments all the time! Exploring new ideas, and striving for impeccable execution are embedded in our engineering way of thinking. You need innovative and ambitious partners to achieve equally innovative and ambitious goals. This is why we do what we do, and why we firmly believe GitLab's vision and spirit strongly align with our own. This is how we chose to go with them."

“GitLab has really helped us because we can work with a lot of people on projects, maintain the quality, make sure that everybody checks each other's work, and then deploy it on an infrastructure that doesn't bear any surprises because it just follows through the continuous deployment. It just follows wherever the project is going.”

“GitLab has become our central place to store code and issues. It's become a mission critical system for our organization.”

“GitLab is a modern tool with a consolidated view of the toolchain and it provides us with that desired platform for a coherent implementation.”
