Depends on context really. If you’re looking for a hosted solution similar to Github, Gitlab is much more expensive. Our team was on a self-hosted version of Gitlab but needed more change control around PR reviews and merging. We moved to Github and got that for $4 per user per month where that same functionality would’ve cost ~$30 per user per month on Gitlab. That’s a crazy price difference and was easily worth the migration to Github for our use case.
Yeah if you need enterprise features, it gets expensive quickly, but the free tier for small projects is all right.
One thing that’s slowly becoming annoying is the change in mentality when deciding what feature is available in the free tier: in the beginning, I think the idea was that a feature started in the paid tier, and then, if it could be useful to everyone, it was available in the free tier after a short period. I think it’s slowly shifting, some features like scoped labels, a feature existing for years, is still a premium feature. I’m not entirely trusting the business behind GitLab for stuff like that.
