Axolo Reviews & Product Details

Axolo creates a GitHub-synced channel per PR, which has streamlined our communication and collaboration immensely. The single source of truth being Slack has reduced missed notifications and made discussions more approachable and productive. I also appreciate how Axolo minimizes the idiosyncrasies of GitHub by allowing interaction through Slack's smooth, friendly UI. The PR notifications have been reliable, ensuring that fewer of my PRs are missed. I find it really helpful that Axolo asks me which Slack member the new member is when someone joins the GitHub team.

Sometimes PR notifications get missed. The daily review time did not adapt to the Daylight Saving Time clock change. The daily review also could be made more easy to read. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Axolo's bidirectional information sync really nice because it allows me to handle pull requests without leaving Slack. It's great for making pull requests more visible and facilitates easier feedback. The ease of not having to switch context from Slack is a huge plus, even though GitHub has a great UI for PR reviews. Also, setting up Axolo was super easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I could think of is sometimes the bidirectional is slow, but, generally, that was only a problem when I used it for GitLab. So I think GitLab was the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Axolo very easy to use, which is a big plus for me. It's super easy to onboard new users, making the transition smooth for everyone involved. I also appreciate that it allows folks who don't want to use Slack to easily opt out, which is considerate. The pricing is good as well, making it a well-rounded tool for our needs.

It truly just works reliably in the background—I can't think of anything I don't like about the product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that messages sync between Github and Slack. It makes our communication way easier, as Slack has better communication features than Github. This is used all day, every day by our company, and is very easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes Axolo creates more than one channel for a single Github Pull Request, which scatters information and is not desirable. I reached out to support about this, and they quickly responded that they will look into it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Axolo makes PR reviews more chat-friendly, elevating them to the same level as discussions on Slack rather than being hidden in an email inbox. It's been great to work with for collaborative discussions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the integration can time out and sometimes if the user hasn't connected to GitHub it has a hard time tagging the user the same way it's tagged in Slack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very helpful to get comments from github sent in slack - easier to get notified, easier to read, and easier to respond Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like so much that the messages from the slack channel also get posted in github. I think that there should be a thread for each comment from github, where a response on slack would post back to github, but every message from the slack channel going to github means that any non-concise conversation or discussion makes the github conversation look very messy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Axolo really streamlines our pull request workflow by bringing everything into Slack. I love how it creates a temporary channel for each PR, so discussions don’t get buried or spread across threads. It keeps reviewers, authors, and even CI notifications in one place, which makes the feedback loop much faster. I’ve noticed fewer delays in code reviews, and the fact that comments sync back to GitHub means we don’t lose anything. It feels like it reduces friction and keeps everyone more engaged with reviews.

That said, there are a few rough edges. Sometimes old PR channels linger in Slack longer than they should, cluttering up the workspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Axolo because it offers ease of use in integration, which stands out for my purposes and speeds up the process of reviewing a pull request. The integration saves us a ton of hours waiting for a review, asking for one, or expecting comments about a coding decision. The initial setup is top-notch, taking less than 10 minutes.

I think the channel prefix can be improved. The current design adds noise to our channels sidebar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Axolo for its simple integration and feedback loop, which makes the process smooth for me. I also enjoy the easy Slack feedback and commands that it offers, simplifying communication during code reviews. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy, so getting started was a breeze.

PR review channel naming can be more user friendly and enable archival by default. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Love the integrated communication across Slack and Github, I don't have to worry if my reviewers saw that I responded to their comments for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At very busy times it can miss a PR, but it's not too big of a hassle as it happens quite rarely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
