We use our own product.
Our development organization uses GitLab.com to manage the DevOps lifecycle of GitLab itself.
Our entire company uses GitLab to collaborate on this handbook.
We also capture other content and processes in Git repos and manage them with GitLab.
When something breaks, doesn't work well, or needs improvement, we are more likely to notice it internally and address it before it impacts our larger community.

When I started working in private equity, most large firms had a broad mandate that could roughly be described as follows: “We are sector agnostic investors looking to back market-leading companies with recurring revenue streams and sustainable margins led by experienced management teams with a proven track record. We like investing in companies with strong brands and solid customer relationships.” Clearly, this acquisition strategy is too broad and would no longer be successful in today's significantly more competitive market.
