Axolo Reviews & Product Details

With a high volume of PRs, it can be hard to keep up. Axolo helps me stay on top of my own PRs and the PRs I need to review, and it integrates seamlessly into Slack, where we do all of our communication. I love being able to confidently check the status of code changes without having to use GitHub's convoluted UI. Axolo keeps it simple and shows me exactly what I need to focus on most, and performs well at everything it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t have many things I dislike about Axolo. The only issue I’ve run into is that, on rare occasions, a channel doesn’t get auto-deleted. It seems like a bug, and I’ve only seen it happen once or twice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 use Axolo for PR notifications. It helps with communication and responses, and I find it quick and simple to use. The initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think Axolo could have a better format for its notifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very helpful to keep all my notifications in one place! It's super annoying to flip between tabs with Slack and GitHub so keep everything together is really nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish slack react emojis pulled across platforms! I often respond with a thumbs up on GitHub and someone who only check slack will never see that I responded. 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.

It makes it extremely easy to stay on top of updates for PRs I’ve opened, and to see which reviews are waiting on me. By bringing the conversation into the channel I’m already in all the time, nothing gets lost and it’s much easier to keep track of what needs my attention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is strange that this needs to be a third party integration, this seems like something that should be built into Github itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Every hour a PR author is blocked from merging a PR, is another hour your team could be getting back. Axolo gets you those hours back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Onboarding new teammates is very clunky. 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.
