We got 100,000 users of the open source distribution before we introduced a paid one.

In the first year that Dmitriy made the open source distribution (and I didn't even know it existed) 200 people contributed to GitLab and probably 10,000+ people used it.

Read more about how we turned that into revenue in https://about.gitlab.com/2018/11/09/monetizing-and-being-ope...
