"The most valuable feature of GitLab is the automatic merging of code."
"GitLab's best features are maintenance, branch integration, and development infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to download an application without actually putting in the APK. It gives us an option to put the APK in if we want to but we can download it from the App Store and Play Store."
"The documentation is confusing."
"I would like to see better integration with project management tools such as Jira."
"Their RBAC is role-based access, which is fine but not very good."
"The price of GitLab could improve, it is high."

"GitLab would be improved with the addition of templates for deployment on local PCs."
"The solution should again offer an on-premises deployment option."
"I would like more Agile features in the Premium version. The Premium version should have all Agile features that exist in the Ultimate version. IBM AOM has a complete Agile implementation, but in GitLab, you only have these features if you buy the Ultimate version. It would be good if we can use these in the Premium version."
"In this solution, there are two kinds of testing, static analysis, and dynamic analysis. There needs some improvement in testing with dynamic analysis because I have found it is not accurate"
