“The reality — before GitLab — was a lot of emails, a lot of other tools. It was a lot of really hard attempts at trying to get everybody on the same page,” Cardozo said. “But once we rolled out GitLab, we use it absolutely for everything.”

“Essentially, we look at GitLab as a building block, and we just build whatever we need on top of it. Whether it's a wiki or a custom integration, GitLab helps create an engineering culture.”

“Now all of those groups use GitLab for all of their projects. We expect them to have all their code available there. That gives us lots of advantages over what we had previously."

"Switching to GitLab made us go from several days to create a new application to just a few hours."

“We primarily needed to manage our solutions globally. Everyone uses Git, whether they need a decentralized SCM or not, it is such a predominant tool in the market that it is way easier to onboard new people when using such industry standards."

“We would also have had a lot more finger pointing internally between Dev and Ops, trying to establish what’s going on and where the problem is really coming from. Now, it’s much easier to identify the problems and know how to solve them."

"That was the main goal that we had - to reunify multiple tools into a single one and make it really easy for developers to deploy to production. We were at 10 per day before the migration. Now with GitLab, we do 50 deployments per day in production, which is …

"We now have an always-innovating solution that aligns with our goal of digital transformation."

“We’d be wasting a lot of NVIDIA engineering time with lots of individual little servers being managed around the world,” Herlihy said. “We need something more modern, with a modern workflow and features and things."

"We believe it is the right tool for achieving DevOps in Japanese business practices."

"I personally absolutely love GitLab. And I would say multiple times, here internally, that I think your API is very sexy, in that respect, that it's really great to work with it. It's very intuitive."

"We like that GitLab is a platform that provides a one-point solution for many things. It’s not just a repository; it has many features, including Wiki, Pages, analytics, a web interface, merge requests, CI/CD, and issue comments. You can collaborate in issues and merge requests. It’s a nice package overall."

"It’s simple. All teams operate around this one tool. Instantly, that made communication easier. We wouldn’t be where we are today if we didn’t have GitLab in our stack."

"I can easily say we are saving on average $10,000 per annum on toolchain reduction and operational cost from moving to GitLab."

“Through this setup, we already spend several thousands of hours on development. Having the right tool to have a team incorporating all together was a really, really important point."
