End-to-end platform management

24/7/365 SLA-backed support

Fixed price, no hidden cost
Most teams don't have the bandwidth to run GitLab at its best
For small and medium enterprises, self-managing GitLab means skilled engineers spend their time on upgrades, infrastructure, and incident response; not building the products your business depends on.

SaaS isn't suitable
Data residency rules, compliance mandates, or cost thresholds make GitLab SaaS and Dedicated off the table, leaving you stuck self-hosting without the resources to do it well.

Upgrades are risky
Staying on a supported GitLab version requires careful planning, rollback strategies, and specialist knowledge; a costly distraction that compounds security and compliance risk if delayed.

Behind on latest versions
Without a regular upgrade cadence, your teams won’t be able to take advantage of all of the latest GitLab features, including GitLab DAP.

Engineers firefighting
Your best engineers spend valuable hours maintaining infrastructure, patching issues, and responding to incidents – time that should be directed at building features and delivering value.

Unpredictable costs
Unplanned outages, ad-hoc consultants, and reactive scaling make GitLab operational costs erratic and hard to budget, creating financial uncertainty across your engineering organisation.
We take it off your plate. Completely.
GitLab Local is designed so SMEs get an enterprise-quality GitLab platform without building any internal operations capability.

Fully managed platform
We own end-to-end management of your GitLab environment on Adaptavist-hosted AWS infrastructure, so your team never touches the ops layer.

Seamless migrations
We migrate you to the latest supported GitLab version and maintain ongoing upgrades, eliminating disruptive "big bang" upgrade projects for good.

Round-the-clock support
Strict SLAs tied to incident severity, with 24/7/365 follow-the-sun coverage ensuring incidents are resolved fast, whatever the hour.

Transparent pricing tiers
Fixed-price, fixed-scope service tiers matched to your capacity needs — no hidden charges, no billing surprises, just predictable monthly costs.

Built-in data protection
Automated backups and tested recovery processes protect your repositories and data, meeting compliance and continuity obligations without extra effort.
