Cons
"The solution currently has a bug that causes performance issues. They need to resolve this in a future release.""The tool needs to improve on cloud-native GitOps.""While it is a flexible product and provides a means of integrating with virtually anything, the company should make a better effort to keep up with new platform integrations."

"The aspect that requires attention is the user management component. When integrating with BitLabs and authenticating through GitLab, there are specific features we desire. One important feature is the ability to import users directly from GitLab, along with their respective designations, and assign appropriate privileges based on that information. Allocating different privileges to users is a time-consuming process for us.""The documentation really should be improved by including real examples and more setup cases.""The tool must be more user-friendly."
