DevOps Score

NOTE: Your GitLab instance's usage ping must be activated in order to use this feature.

The DevOps Score tab displays the usage of major GitLab features on your instance over the last 30 days, averaged over the number of billable users in that time period. It also provides a Lead score per feature, which is calculated based on GitLab analysis of top-performing instances based on usage ping data that GitLab has collected. Your score is compared to the lead score of each feature and then expressed as a percentage at the bottom of said feature. Your overall DevOps Score is an average of your feature scores. You can use this score to compare your DevOps status to other organizations.

The page also provides helpful links to articles and GitLab docs, to help you improve your scores.

Usage ping data is aggregated on GitLab servers for analysis. Your usage information is not sent to any other GitLab instances. If you have just started using GitLab, it may take a few weeks for data to be collected before this feature is available.
