One place for the code, the pipeline and the registry
GitLab is where most of the teams we work with keep their code, and increasingly it is where they keep everything that happens to that code afterwards. We are an authorized partner in GitLab's channel programme, listed on the Open track, and the entry is public so you can read it without taking our word for it.
Why we build on it
01
Repository, pipelines, container registry, package registry, issues and releases arrive together and already know about each other. The alternative is four products stitched with webhooks, where every upgrade is a negotiation between vendors and every outage needs someone to work out whose it is.
02
Self-managed GitLab is a first-class option rather than a legacy tier. For a team with a regulator to answer to, or a board that wants the source somewhere it controls, that changes the conversation. We run it on Kubernetes for clients who need exactly that, upgrades and restore drills included.
03
GitLab CI is YAML your own engineers can open and follow a year later, which matters more than any feature list. Pipelines we build are meant to be maintained by the team that inherits them, not by us on a retainer.
What we do on it
We are listed in GitLab's Authorized Partner Locator, which is the register GitLab points customers at when they want someone to implement, migrate or run the platform for them.
We are not neutral about GitLab and we are not paid to recommend it. Plenty of teams should stay exactly where they are, and we maintain GitHub Actions, Jenkins and Bitbucket pipelines for clients who already run them. More than once we have talked someone out of a migration when the only thing wrong with their setup was that it was not the one we know best. A move earns its cost when the tool sprawl is costing more than the migration will.
