Why it’s time for SMBs to ditch DIY DevOps

Small and medium-sized businesses face an uphill battle to survive, let alone succeed, in a competitive market. Ditching their do-it-yourself DevOps toolchains for GitLab’s end-to-end DevSecOps platform gives them a big advantage. This single application can boost productivity and cut expenses. And that’s a superpower for smaller businesses that often are competing with enterprises with deeper pockets and much bigger IT teams.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the complications and costs that come with a toolchain, while also showing you how migrating to GitLab’s platform can help SMBs expand. We’ll talk about building a collaborative culture that an organization can grow into. And we’ll show you how to improve efficiency, and how a platform increases security and decreases labor-intensive, hands-on work.
