Their business model is the enterprise edition which comes with better support and newer "enterprisey" features first. It seems to be doing really well given their comments here. Gitlab.com is a loss leader to get their potential users excited about gitlab so they convince the potential buyers to pay for it.

It annoys me no end that all these services seem to think that charging to maintain my userbase is a way to get me to think they care. What it means is it invariably the SSO support is barely tested and poorly documented. For a number of products, I've tried out the "enterprise" version and realised that their features (e.g. SSO, audit, etc.) are just not useful. Largely because there are not enough people looking at the thing or attempting to use it.
- sytse 10y agoI think you'll be happy to hear that LDAP SSO is part of GitLab Community Edition (CE). It is well tested and used by more than 10k organizations. For more information please see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/administration/auth/ldap.md https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/admi... Please note that LDAP group sync is part of Enterprise Edition, but I assume your home system doesn't need that.
