Cons
"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 solution currently has a bug that causes performance issues.

"I'm new to GitLab, so I would appreciate more documentation about the code and commands.""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.""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.""We'd always like to see better pricing on the product.""The integration could be slightly better.""GitLab could add a plugin to integrate with Kubernetes stuff.""Based on what I know so far, its integration with Kubernetes is not so good. We have to develop many things to make it work. We have to acquire third-party components to work with Kubernetes."
