Getting started

Difference between CE and EE

GitLab CE - Community Edition
Includes the basic, free feature set of GitLab.

GitLab EE - Enterprise Edition
You benefit from 100+ enterprise features
Here you need Enterprise licences that are not included in the NWS. The GitLab Enterprise licenses must be purchased separately from GitLab. We can gladly take over the procurement process for you here (also with invoicing by us).
