| No, that does not help, unfortunately. The 250 users who don't need Ultimate are using our GitLab-installation for entirely different things (different projects, different repositories, etc) than the 25 who do. For example, our training academy keeps a bit of training material in asciidoc format, stored in GitLab, and available to everybody in the organization . GitLab Starter is fine for this need, and this is one reason why every employee has a GitLab license. On the other hand we have a software project with 6-8 team members who could benefit from GitLab Ultimate. Their needs do not apply to the rest of the company, so we will not get 275 Ultimate licenses for this purpose. We want (wanted) to have a single GitLab instance to rally around, where we could keep track of all sorts of projects across the company. We went for the Enterprise edition to make sure we could use it without limitations, but we're slowly realizing that it ain't so. Also, some quick stats: 264 users with altogether 76 groups and 887 projects, adding 5-10 projects a week and 5-10 users a month. We managed to create the hub we wanted, but the hub we bought is no longer catering for our needs, and the hub we need is too expensive. |
