If I manage to capture larger number of same alien design (that would be most likely Precursor ships). I sometimes make partial refit to keep them in service with my navy. In my current game I had mostly missile ships, so captured beam ships (railgun and gauss) were useful boost for point defence or jump point assault role and I did partial refit with shields. Engine refits are also possibility but engines are quite costly so it depends on your situation.
