Application Release Orchestration (ARO) tools provide a combination of deployment automation, pipeline and environment management, and release orchestration capabilities to simultaneously improve the quality, velocity and governance of application releases. ARO tools enable enterprises to scale release activities across multiple, diverse and multigenerational teams (e.g., DevOps), technologies, development methodologies (agile, etc.), delivery patterns (e.g., continuous), pipelines, processes and their supporting toolchains.

Enterprise agile planning (EAP) tools 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.

Enterprise Agile Planning Tools

Gartner defines the Application Security Testing (AST)  market as the buyers and sellers of products and services designed to analyze and test applications for security vulnerabilities. Gartner identifies four main styles of AST: (1) Static AST (SAST)  (2) Dynamic AST (DAST) (3) Interactive AST (IAST) (4) Mobile AST.

The above technology approaches can be delivered as a tool or as a subscription service. Many vendors offer both options to reflect enterprise requirements for a product and service.

Value stream delivery platforms provide fully integrated capabilities that enable continuous delivery of software. These capabilities may include planning, version control, continuous integration, test automation, release orchestration, continuous deployment (and rollback), monitoring, security testing and analyzing value stream metrics. VSDPs integrate with infrastructure and compliance automation tools to automate infrastructure deployment and policy enforcement.
VSDPs are extensible by design and integrate with other tools to fill gaps in software delivery management. Gartner’s definition of VSDP does not describe a system that cobbles together disparate DevOps tools. Instead, VSDPs provide preintegrated capabilities that enhance productivity, collaboration, communication and business outcomes for product teams via interactions among the platform components.

Great Experience! I wish there were more options for integration, but overall, great product. 

Senior Business Systems Analyst

We recently migrated our code repository from Subversion to Gitlab and for the most part the migration process and ramp-up process was pretty straightforward.   It was good to now get a web based tool to be able to review all the repositories and code changes.  It wasn't as intuitive as initially anticipated though and still go back to TortoiseGit (which was quite similar to the previously used TortoiseSVN that we had used with Subversion) that integrated with the file/folder directory structure to review changes.  This may be more of getting used to the UI though.  Also, we haven't been able to seamlessly integrate with our existing JIRA issue management system yet - seems it may be possible, but again haven't figured that out yet.

Implementation Manager For ERPNEXT

it helps speed up software development as it is powerful collaboration in version control and code review 
Multi-code CI/CD this enable to deploy anywhere
it makes you fast (30%  faster cycle time) so you can meet business demands
GitLab more efficient as provisions Repos in seconds not weeks and you get  security results on every code change  so GitLab reduce security and compliance risk

Gitlab platform overall is fantastic and feels like a superior product to Github. Implementation was fairly straightforward, even with a sizable cluster buildout.

We Use GitLab as our Source Code management and CI/CD pipeline tool. We reduced our dependency on Jenkins with help of GitLab. We have pipelines configured for different environments. It is also very easy to integrate with Jenkins.

Senior Systems Reliability Engineer

I have been pleasantly surprised by how well the gitlab environment enables all levels of produce lifecycle development.  The git repository features allows the expected behaviors, but the flexibility of things like 'pages' to show/host basic tools, and a docker and artifact repository built in, as well as extremely powerful and flexible pipelines with simple yaml syntax to accomplish extremely complex CI/CD tasks is invaluable.
