GitLab proof of concept
Your fastest way to a fully compliant PoC of GitLab
Quickly test GitLab with your own projects
The benefits of GitLab are many, but before switching to it, you want to test it on real projects. With a Proof of Concept (PoC) you can start small and validate the tool before cranking up your deployment across your company. Full deployment can be a significant undertaking, especially if compliance and security concerns keep you from going to the public cloud.

Production-grade PoC
Your PoC is provided through our managed services. Our experts handle hosting, service management, compliance, licensing and end-user support. You'll get everything you need to make a confident decision around GitLab and next steps.
Your own environment
Because we are experts in automation, we can quickly set up your environment, and make those small configurations that bring you the answers you need. And it doesn't matter what GitLab features you want to explore, or which GitLab software those require - we can handle it all.
Deliver your software through GitLab
The best way to evaluate GitLab is by using it on a real software development project. We'll import your source code, Infrastructure as Code, and test cases into GitLab, then help you deliver your next release using the platform. It's a practical, low-risk way to experience GitLab in your own environment.
Get ready for scaling up
By the end of your proof of concept, you'll have the confidence to decide whether GitLab is the right fit for your organization. If you choose to move forward, we'll help you successfully adopt GitLab—from CI/CD pipelines and test automation to Infrastructure as Code, cloud-native development, and DevOps and Agile practices.
