Choose a GitLab subscription

To choose the right GitLab subscription, select an offering and a tier.

Choose a subscription

Choose which GitLab subscription suits your needs:

  • GitLab.com: The GitLab software-as-a-service offering. You don't need to install anything to use GitLab.com, you only need to sign up and start using GitLab straight away.
  • GitLab Dedicated: A single-tenant SaaS service for highly regulated and large enterprises.
  • GitLab self-managed: Install, administer, and maintain your own GitLab instance.

On a GitLab self-managed instance, a GitLab subscription provides the same set of features for all users. On GitLab.com, you can apply a subscription to a top-level group namespace. You cannot apply a subscription to a personal namespace.

NOTE: Subscriptions cannot be transferred between GitLab.com and GitLab self-managed. A new subscription must be purchased and applied as needed.

Choose a GitLab tier

Pricing is tier-based, allowing you to choose the features that fit your budget.

For more details, see a comparison of features available in each tier.
