(Original )Information
What do you like best about GitLab?

Personally, I love GitLab CI. It's highly flexible and enables me to configure complex CI/CD pipelines. If you have sufficient funds, it can meet all your developers' needs (MR approvals, Docker Registry, Mermaid support, etc.), although it can be quite expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitLab?

The cost of premium features is quite high. Additionally, I require a more flexible method to manually execute certain pipelines. Please provide an interface for initiating jobs with desired parameters, similar to Jenkins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GitLab solving and how is that benefiting you?

We utilize it to build CI/CD pipelines, which involve running tests, linters, and releasing new versions of our applications. Additionally, we employ it for running deployment pipelines, which utilize Ansible scripts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
