GitHub Reviews

Our primary use case of this solution is for collaboration, code sharing, and as a testing environment. We can put it into Docker and create images. I'm the technical lead in the company and we are customers of GitHub. 

GitHub has enabled the CICD pipeline. Without GitHub, we wouldn't be able to do that. 

The code sharing and updated history are valuable features, the capability to roll back to a previous version is very useful. We're also able to make a branch and a merge and it's easy to collaborate with our teams. We can hook up with Jira, with Wiki, and OpenAPI. We have access to all the features we require right now.

I'd like to GitHub become a more user friendly solution. There are some commands that if we want to reset it to a previous version or we try to roll back, we sometimes get a broken link in the history. Maybe there's something we can do to make the learning curve easier for the user. Perhaps by visualizing the operation instead of the command line.

I've been using this solution for seven years. 

The solution is quite stable, we haven't had any crashes.

We don't require much scalability. There's the tech team and then we have around 100 developers, managers, some architectural cloud engineers, and a test engineer. They all use GitHub. We don't require maintenance but we have a cloud engineer who is mainly on AWS services. The only thing that I think they need to deal with is generating tokens for new users. We use the solution extensively.

I have previously used SVN but I prefer GitHub, it seems to be more powerful than SVN. We have a centralized website and a better user interface. 

There's no real setup required, we just installed it and hooked it up to our project, and we put it into the Docker file. Not much setup.

We pay an annual license fee.

This is definitely the best solution I have tried so far. That said, I believe it has some space to improve. It's important to do some homework before implementation and I would suggest using the documentation posted on GitHub. 

I rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

We are mainly using it for product development. Our repo and code are in GitHub.

It is a cloud-based solution. It is a part of our subscription in the cloud, and we have its latest version.

It has a lot of features from the code development perspective. You get a lot of features such as repo, commit, merge, and branch. You can play around and do things on the fly.

It is easy and simple to deploy. It is also easier to use when working from home.

It is currently only from the development perspective. It doesn't have features related to project management and testing. It is not like Azure DevOps. So, there is a lot of room for improvement.

It is a version control product, and it would be good if they can come up with a complete DevOps product.

Its stability is good.

Because it is cloud-based, you don't have scalability-related issues. We have around 30 users.

We didn't have to contact them because it is very user-friendly and easy to use. For any help, you can go to the communities.

Its initial setup is straightforward and easy. It is much easier and simpler than Azure DevOps. This is something that Microsoft has to aim for.

It is open-source. There is no license for GitHub.

If you are a startup or have a small team, it is a good platform to start with because you can achieve your business goal without any cost. It provides a lot of flexibility, and you can structure yourself for any kind of product development.

I would rate GitHub a nine out of ten.

We use the solution to handle our switch control. All our first code force is managed by GitHub to commit new features and create different branches. We even use this to manage the code to handle flows and processes. We can use it to create some branches and manage the code ownership, and we have an account for each developer so that they can submit pieces to code review for the user. 

The way we can manage the system is very useful. It'd great for managing code. 

You can have the main branch, and then create another branch, and easily merge them together if you like. 

You can effectively manage code reviews by issuing pull requests. Fellow developers can review my code, which helps ensure that the code is written correctly and clean. It's a useful exchange of information. 

The flow process helps us keep our applications stable. The released version is always running smoothly.

Once you get familiar with the system, it's very easy to use.

The product has a very user-friendly interface and user-friendly security.

There is a bit of a learning curve. At first, you'll have to do some searching online to figure out how to perform or reverse certain actions. When we have new team members, they tend to send you a full request for issues and it can create a bit of a bottleneck. There can be a lot of research and lots of problems initially created by users that don't yet understand the system.

The solution could use even more integration with automation tools. 

I've been using the solution for a while.

The stability is quite good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable.

There are four teams working with GitHub currently in our company.

I haven't had the chance to contact support, and therefore cannot really comment on how helpful or responsive they are. 

Within the company, we have specialized people who are maintaining the server. From my own experience as a software developer, outside the company, using the public community GitHub has on offer and publishing questions to it allows s to find the answers we need. The community is really responsive to us.

Initially, when I first joined the company, they were using another solution, and recently we decided to move to GitHub. We are currently using it on a daily basis.

There are other solutions that we use for source control and they're going to be migrating to GitHub.

I did not really work on the deployment per see. However, it is really easy to create new branches. There are also great opportunities for integration with other tools, for example. There's some great automation, for example, which is helpful.

I personally use the free version. the company has the enterprise version of the solution. I'm not a part of the licensing process internally and therefore do not have details in regards to how much the company pays to use the enterprise version,

We are just customers and end-users.

We are using the latest version of the solution. We have some internal solutions deployed. We have our own private server, a GitHub server, and it always is properly maintained and always updated with the latest version for better performance.

I would recommend the solution, however, I would suggest those who intend to use it get the proper training on it first.

I would rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

My primary use case for GitHub is for my private projects that I'm developing for my customers. Some customers have their own developers and I sometimes support them to achieve their goals. So we share everything. We're also using GitHub for the documentation for the teams. I also give lectures for the organizations because sometimes they have development teams but they are not qualified enough, so I have to give them some training on it.

The features that I have found most valuable are that it can support you for most of the road map and it can automate some tasks which works really well with collaboration with the teams. They are really interested in how they organize the history of the code itself which is good.

In terms of what could be improved, I would say the security. I didn't try the two-factor authentication so I don't know if they have it already or not.

I sometimes found it very difficult to connect it with other tools, such as Jenkins or others. For the testing for example, I have to go between both sides. I don't know if I am using it right, but I don't know if they have these features or not. So I have to find other tools to support it because I couldn't really rely on GitHub for the steps that I needed.

Additionally, we are facing really big issues with the Arabic language in GitHub and I don't know if they are focusing on some improvement in the language capabilities. This is one of the things we're facing. 

As I mentioned, for the management we need some improvement in GitHub. It's not built for that. We really need some improvement for the project. It made it tough.

But overall I didn't find anything really urgent needed to improve.

I have been using GitHub for about eight years now.

I'm always using the latest update. In my service behavior I always update all the solutions.

GitHub is very stable.

Since I am working as a contractor in our organization and I'm doing the development work as a site project manager, I don't have a fixed team. But we can say that for each project it's about 10 to 20 people using GitHub most of the time.

It is used on a daily basis.

It is easy to add new users.

I was previously using Jira and Bitbucket but now I'm 100% in GitHub. I switched because of my team - they didn't work on Bitbucket. This is the reason I left Bitbucket even though GitHub is more costly.

I was looking for a management tool. Of course, Jira is the first try. When I looked at it for the cloud there were two options - GitHub and Bitbucket. But when comparing Jira's license to the licenses for Bitbucket or comparing the price between Bitbucket and GitHub, I found it's really cheaper for me to have Bitbucket. But because my team was most familiar with GitHub I decided I had to go with it.

The project management sector really needs some improvement for GitHub. I don't know if GitHub made sense for me as a project manager. But for what it was, it's a really good tool.

The initial setup was okay. It is not really difficult from my perspective.

It is so easy. It took about five minutes maximum. It was really easy to configure. But, as I told you, I couldn't figure out how I can use it with my local IDE or development IDE like VSCode or something like that. That's why I'm using Jira. If I use Jira I couldn't change the issue from GitHub to task. In GitHub I found it to be difficult with this.

I did the installation myself.

My recommendation for anyone thinking about GitHub is that it is the best solution - except for the price.

On a scale of one to ten, I would give GitHub a nine.

We use GitHub for versioning and to provide a place on the cloud to store code so that people can work on it together.

The most valuable features are the Git Hooks and SSH keys.

The Projects Tab, which shows you the todo list and the progress for projects, is very helpful.

I would like to see integration with Slack such that all of the changes made in GitHub are reflected there. You would simply enter the Slack URL and the notifications about code changes would be forwarded.

We have been using GitHub for at least a year.

There were a few cases when we were unable to reach GitHub but for the most part, it is stable.

We have different people in the company who are working on different projects on GitHub. It is safe to say that we have about 50 people in total who are using the platform.

I have not been in contact with technical support. With respect to community support, I have noticed that it is pretty evolved. I have used it often and find that it is very useful.

We used to use BitBucket, but when Microsoft announced that private repositories would be free on GitHub, we switched.

The initial setup is super easy.

The private repositories are free, which is very good.

GitHub is definitely a platform that I recommend people use.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

Some of the people in my team use this solution for version control of personal projects.

The most valuable feature is help offered by the community for open-source projects.

The ticketing system is not working.

This solution would be improved with the inclusion of support for CICD.

This solution definitely feels stable. I've never had an issue with it.

I've never had an issue with slowness or anything like that, so my assumption is that it's scalable.

We're using this solution for our personal projects, and there are approximately ten of us.

I contacted technical support one time to open a ticket. However, I haven't needed to rely on it. Basically, I'm happy with technical support.

We are currently using GitClub for company projects, and do not have plans to switch at this time.

There is no cost to use this solution.

I have evaluated BitBucket in addition to GitClub and this solution.

This is a good solution, but it really needs support for CICD.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We use GitHub for AI features.

GitHub is a cost-effective solution. The solution provides good customization and support.

I have been using GitHub for a couple of years.

We haven’t faced any stability issues with GitHub.

The solution’s initial setup is straightforward.

GitHub is a cost-effective solution.

GitHub's branch protection feature is effective in our workflow management. I work with the cloud version of GitHub. The documentation is enough to resolve issues with the solution. People working with Microsoft tech can use GitHub. Microsoft is investing heavily in this tool. Using GitHub depends on users' use cases and their technologies.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
