I've had a good experience using GitLab for source code repositories, pipelines, and code reviews. I don't have much experience using it for issue tracking and document management since we use Jira & Confluence for that. For my own hobby projects outside of work the free tier has been great, and it was easy to host my own gitlab runner so that I don't have to pay for CI/CD minutes.

Same here I only had good experience with it and I just can't get used to other PR review UIs.

That being said if I were a CTO I would not buy their services, I think they are too expensive.

PR review UI seems very bad to me compared to both github and bit bucket. So it's probably a matter of what you got used to first.

One of its major issues is not displaying merge conflicts in some scenarios, just tells you of the existence of a conflict and you need to figure it out outside the UI.
