## Important differences
## Managing the organizational transition
An important part of transitioning from Jenkins to GitLab is the cultural and organizational
changes that comes with the move, and successfully managing them. There are a few
things we have found that helps this:
-
Setting and communicating a clear vision of what your migration goals are helps
your users understand why the effort is worth it. The value will be clear when
the work is done, but people need to be aware while it's in progress too.
-
Sponsorship and alignment from the relevant leadership team helps with the point above.
-
Spending time educating your users on what's different, sharing this document with them,
and so on will help ensure you are successful.
-
Finding ways to sequence or delay parts of the migration can help a lot, but you
don't want to leave things in a non-migrated (or partially-migrated) state for too
long. To gain all the benefits of GitLab, moving your existing Jenkins setup over
as-is, including any current problems, will not be enough. You need to take advantage
of the improvements that GitLab offers, and this requires (eventually) updating
your implementation as part of the transition.
