- Assessment and planning
- Platform setup and pilot
- Full migration
- Stabilization and handoff
Why teams leave Jenkins
Maintenance Burden
Plugin conflicts, patches, and upgrades consume platform time every month.
Hidden Costs
Infrastructure, licensing, and Jenkins expertise are expensive and easy to underestimate.
Deployment Anxiety
Long deployments, high failure rates, and production fear are not sustainable.
Team Burnout
Engineers leave when they spend more time fighting Jenkins than building product.
Migration Options
Jenkins to GitLab
Unified DevSecOps target with CI/CD, security, and governance in one platform.
Jenkins to GitHub Actions
Cloud-native CI/CD tightly integrated with GitHub repositories.
Custom CI/CD Target
A custom migration path when GitLab or GitHub is not the right fit.
