## Git Tower Reviews
  ### 1. Pricey and Only Worth it for Some

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 23, 2021

**What do you like best about Git Tower?**

You can use tower on both your laptop and desktop on same license. Using a DIFF in tower is far superior to using a DIFF in something like Sourcetree. This is an upgrade to the free version of git.

**What do you dislike about Git Tower?**

Many will stick with the free version of git as it gets the job done. Unfortunately, it's also not better or maybe only slightly better than Sourcetree. Sourcetree customers will not switch to git tower.

**What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Things that take a while to go through on the command line take mere seconds on git tower. With git tower I can create, merge and comment on pull requests right from the tower. Boom!

**Official Response from Bruno Brito:**

> Thank you for your feedback! Tower has many advanced features that Sourcetree does not provide. You can find a detailed comparison here: https://www.git-tower.com/compare/sourcetree/

  ### 2. Flawless and Good tool

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 23, 2021

**What do you like best about Git Tower?**

Powerful and very easy to use. The Interface is straightforward to operate by using a commit. And the changes are reflected as soon. UI looks very clean and sleek.

**What do you dislike about Git Tower?**

The price of the Software is a little bit on the higher side which makes it reconsider purchasing the software. Other than that, the software is well suitable for use.

**Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:**

Well and promising tool to use.

**What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Time Saver, which increases the product delivery.

**Official Response from Bruno Brito:**

> Thank you for the review! We hope you continue to enjoy using Tower!

  ### 3. Good UI interface, but experiencing performance issues

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Staffing and Recruiting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 23, 2021

**What do you like best about Git Tower?**

The UI is very easy to navigate and search for projects.

**What do you dislike about Git Tower?**

For larger projects, performance definitely appears to struggle.

**What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Version control for enterprise applications

**Official Response from Bruno Brito:**

> Thank you for your review! We'd like to learn more regarding the performance issues mentioned. If you have the time, could you please contact us? https://www.git-tower.com/support/contact/

  ### 4. A very old fashioned and clunky software

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Harsh S. | Sales and Marketing Assistant, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 28, 2020

**What do you like best about Git Tower?**

It makes it easier to make amendments to any projects derived from Github and push all changes in one go rather than doing everything one by one on Github. It is easy to see all the changes that have happened from different users and the timestamp.

**What do you dislike about Git Tower?**

It's very slow, difficult connection process and can have issues when pushing/uploading to Github. Sometimes takes a while to send the update to Github and so you have to wait for the visual update on Github before having confidence that the work you did has been fully uploaded

**Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:**

N/A

**What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to complete multiple tasks for one project in one go rather than doing it one by one on Github

**Official Response from Julian Rothkamp:**

> Thanks a lot for your feedback, Harsh! You mentioned a "difficult connection process" - we'll be taking a closer look at this topic and see if we can simplify this process even further.

Regarding "issues when pushing/uploading to GitHub": we haven't heard that from other users so far. Tower is very robust in these matters (which makes sense when keeping in mind that it is using pure Git in the background). If you have any more information for us, we'd love to hear it via https://bit.ly/towersupport
