"My preferred GUI for git"

5/5

What do you like best about Git Tower?

I like that it's a native Mac app, which results in a very speedy app. Sometimes I do git stuff in the terminal, but I prefer Tower to get a nice visual overview of the changed files before committing and pushing. The diff viewer is very clear, so mostly I know in a glimpse of an eye if it's okay to commit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

Found nothing to dislike in 5 years... :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I highly recommend Tower to anyone who values their time"

5/5

What do you like best about Git Tower?

Tower is one of my favourite tools - it does what all great software does; it takes a specific problem and fixes it.

Git is a great tool, and I can use it with the best of them via the command line. But it's tedious and time-consuming, and if you hit a problem rebasing or using multiple git accounts, you can end up spending a significant portion of your day messing around with it.

For me, my time is precious - if a tool can save me 30 minutes a day which I can then better use, you know, to build actual features - then I'm going to use it.

If you ever gotten lost in the weeds trying to find why you can't push a git commit, or looking for a piece of code you've stashed - give Tower a go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

Nothing, it's great - potentially could have a better pricing system if you're buying multiple licenses for a team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:

Give it a real chance without getting too hung up on the difference between doing it via the command line and feeling like you're not a "real" developer. Real developers save time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- Rebasing branches becomes a breeze

- Changing a git commit message anywhere in your tree is easy

- You can save and restore stashes quickly and effectively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Pricey and Only Worth it for Some"

3/5

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

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/

A full local and remote branches view with tags and commits like using "gitk --all" but having a nicer UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool to interact with git repositories"

4/5

What do you like best about Git Tower?

Tower is very easy to use and has always been my favourite Git GUI client. I found many others to have weird UX concepts, Tower on the other hand, is very straightforward and in my view, built up logically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

It's a bit expensive, especially because you need to renew each year. But as long as the quality stays excellent, I'm more than happy to keep paying that amount. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thanks for your input, Dylan! Glad you find Tower easy to use 🙏

"A lifesaver. A daily friend. Much more than a tool."

5/5

What do you like best about Git Tower?

Tower demystifies git. It allows me to visualize my changes and manage branches with ease. I'm able to cherry pick easily, and to choose whatever diff tool works best for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

Not much, to be honest. A built in merge conflict tool would be cool. And more color themes! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
