"The solution is stable."
"The stability is good."

"It would be better if there weren't any outages. There are occasions where we usually see a lot of outages using GitLab. It happens at least once a week or something like that. Whatever pipelines you're running, to check the logs, you need to have a different set of tools like Argus or something like that. If you have pipelines running on GitLab, you need a separate service deployed to view the logs, which is kind of a pain. If the logs can be used conveniently on GitLab, that would be definitely helpful. I'm not talking about the CI/CD pipelines but the back-end services and microservices deployed over GitLab. To view the logs for those microservices, you need to have separate log viewers, which is kind of a pain."
"The solution should again offer an on-premises deployment option."
"The only thing our company is really waiting on in terms of features is the development of metrics."
"GitLab would be improved with the addition of templates for deployment on local PCs."
"The solution does not have many built-in functions or variables so scripting is required."
"I would like to see better integration with project management tools such as Jira."
"The solution should be more cloud-native and have more cloud-native capabilities and features."
"We do face issues in our company when we run out of disk space."
