It allows me to visualize my changes and manage branches with ease.

And more color themes! **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** --rebasing due to my feature branch falling behind -- merge conflicts -- keeping track of several projects via their branches -- tracing bugs to their source commit **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thanks for the kind words, Shantini!

Clean Git Management Tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** I like the clean interface that GitTower offers. The branch visualizations help me see whether the team members are following the right hygiene of merging the right branches and squashing commits on PR. I can visually update submodules as well which is a step that I often miss when working with Git CLI. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** I used to have stability issues with the tool. I am not facing app crashes very frequently now. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** My team uses Git Tower to raise PRs, tag branches, etc. which is something they would otherwise need to spend a lot of time learning the commands. It has helped the team onboard junior developers very easily without burdening them with the requirement to learn a lot about Git. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your review! We're very happy to learn how Tower helps you work more efficiently as a team πŸ₯³ ### 9.

A detailed review of Git Tower **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Fernando G. | Bi consultant, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 27, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** It has an excellent-looking interface. The way it shows conflicting files and who was the author makes me work more seamessly. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** It is costly for non-students. I found that the UI sometimes lags on Windows 10 for some reason I can put my finger on, and much of the information is hidden, and you need to navigate thoroughly to find what you need to do. **Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:** Check if it is cost-beneficial to you, as it can be expensive to some of us. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** I can work with multiple versions of my code with my colleagues with ease. Some of them don't even use it, and I can see that their changes are a plus in my book. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your review, Fernando.

The Git client I can't live without **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David H. | Lead Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** Tower is a tool that is crafted with love. It's a beautiful native experience that feels at home on both macOS and Windows. It's also the first Git client that made Git click for me. I now merge, rebase, reset and cherry-pick with no fear: I now understand what I'm doing. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** There's nothing I don't like about Tower. I only wish it had a merge tool :-) **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use Tower for all my Git needs. I don't use the command line anymore. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your input, David! We're happy to learn that we've made Git simpler to use πŸ₯³ ### 12. The best Git GUI **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dan S. | Founder & CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 15, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** I hate using the command line I've tried a ton of tools over the years, from free options like github desktop to more complex options like kraken. For me, tower is better than them all. It's easy to use, clearly shows you basic functions while giving you the option for more complex commands in menus if needed. Even though this is a paid tool, I choose to use it because it just works so much better than the other options and I'm happy to support the team. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** The only downside I've found: tower always seems to fail a commit when trying to create github actions. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** It significantly increases my development speed, especially when performing PRs or bug fixes across many branches. Switching is just a double click, even if you haven't pulled the branch before. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thanks for the kind words, Dan! This is wonderful to hear πŸ™ Regarding the GitHub Actions issue: this is due to the OAuth token missing the "workflow" scope and will be fixed soon, so new OAuth tokens will receive the correct permissions. In the meantime, you can either: - use Personal Access Tokens to authenticate, which lets the users define the scopes themselves - use SSH, as the issue will also not be present. We hope this helps. Thanks a lot for your feedback and support, Dan! ### 13. The best option when you don't want to use your git cmd **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jacob S. | Director, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 30, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** What I like most about Git Tower is that it always works, it is visual and makes some of the tedious tasks of using git cmd super easy. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** There is not much more that I don't like about Tower. Maybe two little things: 1) I know how to do some stuff over the cmd, and I don't know how will be done on the GUI, so I keep switching between both. 2) Switching between git projects is a bit painful. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps me use Git when I don't remember some of the commands or I want to see it in a more visual way. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your kind words, Jacob! We're happy to provide some much-needed visual aid :) We'll see what can be done for easier project-switching! ### 14. Power User Git Client **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eric E. | Web Accessibility Expert, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 16, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** I like the ability to very specifically stage files or parts of files and make very detailed commits. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** It’s a little bit too expensive for more casual use. I wished a client of its capabilities would be available to more people. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use Git Tower as easy access to my repository, and I love seeing all details on the changed code. This functionality gives me confidence that my check-in is correctly addressing the issues. It can also help spotting typos. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for the kind words, Eric! We're super happy to learn how Tower has helped you in creating better commits :) ### 15. Outstanding software, outstanding support **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Frank F. | Fellow Software Enginner, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 25, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** Git Tower is the most intuitive git client that I have ever used. It takes the pain out of complex operations like interactive rebasing and simplifies branch and pull request management for our team. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** In all honesty, there isn't anything that I dislike about Tower. It is a fantastic product, and the company provides top-notch support. **Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:** Do not hesitate to purchase Git Tower. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** I prefer using a GUI for git and tried many different applications. Git Tower has a beautiful UI, works cross-platform, and does a great job of supporting even the most advanced git commands. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your feedback, Frank! We're glad to have you with us πŸ₯³ ### 16. Tower is the single most powerful git client I have ever used **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nicolas S. | Software Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 09, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** Being able to add my work and personal github account as well as different accounts for gitlab servers is just amazing. I can easily manage all my repositories over multiple accounts and providers. Being able to categorise my repositories into different categories is great to keep an overview of what repo is for what. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** The only thing missing would be a more integrated solution for Github pull requests. **Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:** I would recommend Git Tower for everyone using a mac as their primary OS. The Windows version is good and functional but doesn't "feel" as native and polished even though this is a very subjective opinion and If you're just looking for the basically complete feature set I would also recommend Git Tower for Windows users. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** Git Tower solves the problem of having multiple Github and Gitlab accounts merged into one UI. I finally have an overview of what I have stashes as that always got lost. Honestly it's the only git client that actually feels like it's macOS native so that's a huge plus for me. ### 17. GIT Tower - The professional Version Control System for the current IT era **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Surya S. | Linux Administrator, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** The ease of use and learning the new technology The kind of features that match the current technology needs **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** Nothing to name to dislike as the tool is simple and robust to rely on **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** The backups and the versions on the code **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your input, Surya!

Tower helps me to manage Git related operations more effectively with limited knowledge **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Bansh P. | Team Leader, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** Git integration with the existing application is secure and straightforward. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** Many times felt performance issues when project size is considerably big and memory limitation.

We hope you continue to enjoy using Tower 😎 ### 19. Using Tower as a mobile developer - can't live without it! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 22, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** There are many git apps out there - some trying to be smart and helpful on your behalf. Tower is rather a toolbox allowing you to choose your approach. It doesn't prescribe, it only enables. It is also a native macOS app, something in the age of electron and other development tools is becoming more scarce. The ease of use, ability to drag and drop and just simplify git actions which can get quite hairy in command line s an absolute live saver. Few tools allow me to work as confidently as Tower does. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** There are some minor annoyances with how it handles multiple tabs, switching etc. But it's so small given the overall value that it's not worth staying away over. **Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:** There are free trials, it definitely is worth trying out. Often in life you get what you pay for - with Tower the value is much more than the price. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** Tower is my main GUI when working in code repositories and performing git related tasks. I often work across multiple repositories at the same time, and Tower makes it simple to switch, find, etc my way around. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your review! πŸ™ In the future, we will see how we can improve tab-switching 😊 We hope you continue to enjoy using Tower! ### 20. Best Git Client Ever Made **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Collins A. | WordPress Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** I am an experienced Git CLI user with many aliases. I didn't think an App would make me faster. Since I started using Git Tower, my workflow has improved and I get work done significantly faster. If you are new to Git, the GitTower app makes using Git approachable with an excellent GitHub integration. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** It used to be a one-time fee software. Although the switch to subscription was difficult for me to stomach, I think it's totally worth the fee, especially for the deep Github integration. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** Not having to use the Git CLI is why I love Git Tower. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for the kind words, Collins!

It is also packed with plenty of features to keep even the CLI users happy but without detracting you too far from the Git principles like some Git GUIs do with "sync" style behaviour. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** It could do with better integration for commit hooks. It's fiddly to get it working and keep it working. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** I use it to manage all my personal (and some work) Git repositories. I find the stash and branch management particularly useful. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for the kind words, Sam! That's wonderful to hear πŸ₯³ Regarding commit hooks: we will see what can be improved in the future. ### 27.

The subscription model is fairly priced, and they are regularly working on fixes and features.

Talk about merges, conflicts, cherry-picks, pull requests, git flow, hotfixes, force pushes... the GUI helps beginners understand the underlying principles - and simplifies the handling for experts. (For example, cherry-picking by drag&drop is very intuitive and logical. Or triggering a bitbucket pipeline directly from Tower instead of the slow browser.) **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your review, Urs!

Powerful but easy to use **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Mint S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 14, 2020 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** I've been keeping up with Tower for almost 10 years now. I found an email from back in December 2010 where I sent the beta to a friend of mine. It was only about 3 or 4 years ago that I finally broke down and bought it. I'd been using several free git clients for a while and they did work fine, but after trying a demo of Git Tower, things just clicked. It made managing my team's large git repository a breeze and was generally a joy to use. The client itself mostly stays out of your way and allows you to get your work done without difficulty. I'm a happy paying customer and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** No major downsides. As with any paid product you have to judge it's worth to you over the free versions out there. Since I make my living coding and spend a lot of time inside our team's git repository, paying for an app that makes this easy is a no-brainer. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easy management of my team's large git repository. While the free git clients work fine, Git Tower is the one that works best for me. ### 47.

Also subscription price and be a bit much. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** Git Tower makes it easy to know what changes are in a commit and which branches are open. It offers a vastly better experience of using the terminal. **Official Response from Bruno Brito:** > Thank you for your review! We're happy to provide some much-needed visual aid 😎 ### 48.

Tower is great **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tcheutchoua S. | Student, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 12, 2021 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** Present on all platforms, nice interactive and intuitive UI.

We hope you have fun exploring and discovering Tower's most powerful features :) ### 50. Invaluable for big rebases **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Eduardo T. | Principal Engineer - Head of Applications Engineering, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 15, 2020 **What do you like best about Git Tower?** I use Tower for the complex rebases and most stuff beyond checkout and commit, which I'll do in the terminal unless I am already at Tower. And because of that, I end up helping fix all the rebase fuckups and merge hells of the rest of the team. Squashes are trivial, just select the list, right-click, squash. Exploring the list of local stashes as if they were folders is also really useful. It enforces having a clean history because it makes visually ugly when there are many weird history merges around. It is clear and concise. I have tried many alternatives, I keep trying others regularly, and I always come back. At this point, it's pretty much what keeps me on Mac. **What do you dislike about Git Tower?** No Linux support means that I am still locked into macos. It would be great if it had an embedded decent diff tool. I used to get by with FileMerge but I've recently moved to Kaleidoscope and it's working great. **Recommendations to others considering Git Tower:** Give it a go, try it for a week at least. Wait until you have your first complex rebase to deal with to see the real benefits. If you are moving from other GUIs, you'll adapt quickly enough. If you are more of a terminal person, that's totally fine. Fire this up when you have to do complex stuff, squashes, rebases, trying to find lost stashes or missing commits, etc. and keep the usual day-to-day stash/commit/push/pull/fetch on the terminal. **What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?** Extremely simple squashes and rebases. It makes it very clear what comes from where so you can follow and untangle merge hells. I am my team's go-to guy to solve weirdness in git history, mainly because I'm the only senior using Tower. ## Git Tower Discussions - [Why has git tower been made available only for Mac users?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/why-has-git-tower-been-made-available-only-for-mac-users) - 5 comments, 1 upvote - [View Git Tower pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/git-tower/reviews?page=3§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-05-23+09%3A01%3A18+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=89d91218-c05c-46d7-987a-835aa14a4200&secure%5Btoken%5D=3e79f307f37f585676f17be864a3cb3c8c81f695956b5ae75c04d7cc503da1fc&format=llm_user) ## Git Tower Integrations - [Bitbucket](https://www.g2.com/products/bitbucket/reviews) - [GitHub](https://www.g2.com/products/github/reviews) ## Top Git Tower Alternatives - [SourceTree](https://www.g2.com/products/sourcetree/reviews) - 4.3/5.0 (372 reviews) - [GitKraken Desktop](https://www.g2.com/products/axosoft-gitkraken-desktop/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (196 reviews) - [Assembla](https://www.g2.com/products/assembla/reviews) - 4.1/5.0 (125 reviews)
