Customer experience is a key metric. Users want to measure platform stability and other
post-deployment performance KPIs, and set targets for customer behavior, experience, and financial
impact. Tracking and measuring these indicators solves an important pain point. Similarly, creating

Since GitLab is a tool for the entire DevOps life-cycle, information from different workflows is
integrated and can be used to measure the success of the teams.
