It's good to see this new pricing model. It's pretty obvious, a lot of the really hard problems that Enterprise would want solved, are being developed by commercially driven ventures. And by going this route, GitLab makes themselves WAY more attractive for these 3rd party vendors, to want to develop for GitLab. Atlassian, with their Marketplace (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/ https://marketplace.atlassian.com/), clearly spelt out how they could make you (3rd party vendor) money, if you developed for Bitbucket. GitLab, until this recent price change, never had one. Plus this makes sense. GitLab's greatest value, is its foot in the door for Enterprise, and this is good first step to leveraging it.

Actually the most things in the Marketplace for Bitbucket Server are pretty useless. Jenkins Integration is really bad compared to Gitlab, CI integration in Bitbucket Server is pretty bad, except for Bamboo..

  Glad to hear you like the Jenkins integration in GitLab, most of the work was done by volunteers in https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitLab+Plugin https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitLab+Plugin In case you're interested some of our thoughts regarding plugin marketplaces from https://about.gitlab.com/direction/#vision https://about.gitlab.com/direction/#vision "Because GitLab is open source the enhancements can become part of the codebase instead of being external. This ensures the automated tests for all functionality are continually run, ensuring that plugins always work. It also ensures GitLab can continue to evolve with it’s plugins instead of being bound to a plugin API that is hard to change and that resists refactoring. This ensures we have many years of quality code and great monthly releases ahead of us." "That doesn’t mean we’ll never do a marketplace, in fact this is the way GitLab.com will be free forever."

    @sytse a marketplace is mostly a excuse for not delivering features, so I'm glad you don't have one yet.

  What do you feel is lacking in the Jenkins integration? Bamboo and Jenkins use the same APIs to make build information available within Bitbucket.
