The Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice Distinction Is Based on Feedback and Ratings From End-User Professionals Who Have Experience Purchasing, Implementing and/or Using the Product or Service

SAN FRANCISCO, July 26, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today GitLab, the DevOps platform delivered as a single application, today announced that it has been named a July 2019 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Enterprise Agile Planning Tools (EAPT). Gartner defines enterprise agile planning (EAP) tools as tools that help organizations to make use of agile practices at scale to achieve enterprise-class agile development. This is achieved by supporting practices that are business-outcome-driven, customer-centric, collaborative and cooperative, as well as with continual stakeholder feedback. These tools represent an evolution from project-centric agile tools and traditional application development life cycle management (ADLM) tools. The majority of products in the EAP tools market play into the overall ADLM product set, acting as a hub for the definition and management of work-item tracking.

This marks the second time GitLab has been named a Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice, after being recognized as the Customers’ Choice for Application Release Orchestration (ARO) in December 2018.

The Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice distinction is based on feedback and ratings from end-user professionals who have experience purchasing, implementing and/or using the product or service.

Some of the reviews about GitLab include:

“It is amazing how a tool can be a new face for a company as a whole. GitLab is here to stay in our organization. It is an indispensable tool, today, for a good and complete project management. All our plans go through GitLab. Our team records all the events, ideas and plans in this tool. In addition, we use GitLab in software development. Our programmers can register and merge all your project changes. This brings an incredible and surreal organization to our company.” — COO, Communications

“GitLab is undoubtedly the best tool available in the market for the organization and monitoring of projects and ideas. With it, our teams and projects manager can administrate efforts and resources very simply and quickly. In addition, we can have control of the accomplishment of tasks and activities of each one in the project through the commits.” — Analyst, Services

“I’m working with GitLab Team from last 4-5 years, really enjoying. The biggest thing would be having all those tickets, all of those changes, closely correlated with the actual changes in Git. For feature or changes on Git, you do not have to read codebase or fire up the whole application.” — Analyst, Services

“This platform is expertise in version control, code review, issue tracking, etc. People can develop their software with this without physically present at one place which makes it a good project management tool and it can also be easily integrated with Atlassian and Jenkins.” — R&G/Product Development, Services

“We are honored to be named a July 2019 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Enterprise Agile Planning Tools (EAPT). GitLab takes great pride in this distinction, as customer feedback continues to shape our products and services. So thank you to all of our customers who submitted reviews,” said Sid Sijbrandij, CEO and co-founder of GitLab. “Our vision for our product is to enable all people in organizations of all sizes to innovate and organize ideas into transparent, multi-level adjustable plans that cut across departments and stakeholders (internal and external) using the same set of single-source-of-truth artifacts in a single application.”
