Forrester Consulting: GitLab Duo Agent Platform delivers 400% ROI
Blog post from GitLab
A Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact study reveals that organizations utilizing the GitLab Duo Agent Platform experience a 400% return on investment and a net present value of $7.5 million over three years, with a payback period of less than six months. The study, based on interviews with decision-makers from various industries, presents a composite organization scenario, highlighting significant benefits such as 80% faster onboarding, a 75% reduction in migration timelines, and substantial savings in labor costs due to improved efficiency in onboarding, migration, and security remediation. The platform's agentic coding capabilities enhance developer productivity by automating code review and troubleshooting tasks, resulting in faster feature releases and reduced dependency on senior engineers. Additionally, the study underscores non-quantified benefits like improved developer satisfaction and better cross-team knowledge sharing. While the study is commissioned by GitLab, Forrester maintains editorial independence, underscoring the study's aim to provide a framework for organizations considering agentic infrastructure for software engineering, rather than serving as a competitive analysis.
