“GitLab is the backbone of our development environment. Today we have 2,500 people working on that for us daily."
“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."
"Over the past two years, GitLab has been transformational for our organization here at UW. Your platform is fantastic."
“It’s very useful to have access to the protected branches and the ability for others to just come in and say, ‘Hey guys, I think this is broken’ or ‘I think this could be improved this way, here’s maybe a snippet or a patch, could you please consider this change, etcetera?’ I think that is a good example on how GitLab allows us to collaborate and actually get things done."
"We chose GitLab because it’s the industry standard, and a good open source project for any development process."
"When we adopted GitLab, we went all in, because it simplified a lot of the day-to-day maintenance. We don't have a lot of time to deal with the platform where we're storing our code,” Hernandez said. “It frees us up to do things that are either internal to the engineering team or to focus on customer interactions."
“When we decided to invest in content marketing, we knew we had to figure out a solution that would allow marketing and engineering to work seamlessly together. The simplicity of GitLab’s features made that possible for us, The marketing team quickly adopted the engineering team’s workflow using issue tracking, kanboards, and merge requests to collaborate on content production. By leveraging the same workflow, the two teams were able to generate trust and visibility into each other’s work.”
“We have not missed a beat. How we collaborate with our customers, how we work with our customers, how we work on projects, that workflow has not changed."
"We're detecting bugs very, very fast and they're also fixed very fast. They can be fixed in maybe 10 minutes to one hour. So bugs are fixed very quickly and also automatically fixed in the production environment. This is a great value."
"GitLab enables us to really share a lot of pipeline configurations, and Helm charts. It may not be exactly required to develop a project, but it will make a project more stable and maintainable. Also, you are always up-to-date. GitLab is a big factor in how fast we can implement pipelines, and in improving the quality of code."
“Everybody wants to work with exciting new technologies, but clients want working applications delivered on time."
"The ability to react to change quickly is extremely valuable for a scaling company like ourselves. We are seeing a lot of collaboration around GitLab CI/CD and pipelines."
"It is safe to say that had we not adopted GitLab to better manage collaboration and code amongst the community, there would have been a complete meltdown of our system. GitLab provides a one-stop solution to all DevOps features required for high-performing teams to deliver software."
"When I heard about GitLab Self-Managed, it was a very clear choice. It was really only GitLab that fulfilled the requirements I had within the engineering project management courses. That and GitLab being one single product."
“My experience at another institution running the full Atlassian Stack was that the administration overhead was too high, and the tools were overkill for the size and scope of the work we were doing."
