We performed a comparison between GitLab and NowSecure based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Sonar, Veracode, Checkmarx and others in Static Application Security Testing (SAST)."The solution makes the CI/CD pipelines easy to execute."
"For us, Gitlab's most valuable feature is the integration with Cypress. We're using Cypress as an automation tool, so we're using GitLab as a tool for running in parallel."
"It is very flexible and easy because you can store data on cloud."
"GitLab integrates well with other platforms."
"Everything is easy to configure and easy to work with."
"The initial setup of GitLab is pretty simple, with no complications."
"The tool helps to integrate CI/CD pipeline deployments. It is very easy to learn. Its security model is good."
"It is scalable."
"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."
"Perhaps the integration could be better."
"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 would like to generate document pages from the sources."
"Merge conflicts and repository maintenance could improve. If there is someone new to the system they would not know if there is a conflict."
"Expand features to match other tools such as a static code analysis tool so third-party integrations are not required."
"I would like to see security increased in the future. A secure environment is very important."
"I used Spring Cloud config and to connect that to GitLab was so hard."
"We are having a few problems integrating with Jira at the moment, which is something that our IT department is investigating."
"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"
