Questions about GitLab Business
Is GitLab Business enough for our team?
As a guideline, GitLab Business is designed for up to approx. 500 users – with 8 CPU cores, 16 GB RAM and 160 GB NVMe SSD as guaranteed resources. Actual requirements depend on usage: many simultaneous pipelines, large repositories or an extensive registry need more power. Users and projects themselves are unlimited. You can move to a larger plan at any time, and our GitLab specialists will gladly help you choose the right one.
Why do you recommend GitLab Business for most companies?
With 8 CPU cores, 16 GB RAM and 160 GB NVMe, GitLab Business offers considerably more headroom than the entry plan. In companies, GitLab quickly becomes the central tool: more and more teams, regular pipelines and a growing container registry come along. With GitLab Business your instance stays fast even then, and you do not have to switch again after a few months. Users and projects are unlimited, and there are no licence costs per user.
Can several departments share GitLab Business?
Yes, that is exactly what GitLab Business is designed for. Each department gets its own groups with their own projects and permissions, while everyone works on one central instance with uniform standards. Teams can share code, review merge requests across departments and publish documentation via GitLab Pages. We take care of operation with updates, backup and 24/7 monitoring – your IT department does not have to look after the server.
Can I try the GitLab server first?
Yes, you can try GitLab free of charge and without obligation for one month. That way your team can see under real conditions how version control, code reviews, issues and CI/CD run on your own GitLab server. If the trial convinces you, simply order GitLab Business or another plan via our order form. Our GitLab specialists are on hand personally if you have any questions. Go to the free trial
Can I move from GitLab Business to a larger plan later?
Yes. If your team grows beyond the guideline of about 500 users or you run more CI/CD pipelines, we extend the resources of your server and you move to GitLab Professional with 12 CPU cores, 24 GB RAM and 240 GB NVMe (guideline about 750 users). Users and projects are unlimited in every plan; the user numbers are guidelines from our experience. All plans
Can you take over our existing GitLab instance?
Yes, we migrate your existing GitLab instance free of charge. Tell us your GitLab version after ordering; we restore your backup and then update to the current version. Your projects, repositories and users are preserved, and you carry on working right away on your new managed GitLab server in Germany. Our GitLab specialists accompany the migration personally and coordinate the process with you.
