Gitcolony is in a way an advanced version of GIT. People who work with GITHub or TortoiseGit will feel very nice once they move to Gitcolony. The rich UI and few advanced features are very nice and helpful.
This also makes the review process much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the abundance of features makes us little confused. ;)
If the user is new to the GIT based code management world, this will be little confusing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UI can be a little finicky. Otherwise I'm thrilled with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Gitcolony is feature rich version of GitHub, and I love the integration of development and QA processes in one place; allows to add due-date, mandatory and optional reviewers and marks the review "in-progress" to prevent accidentally merging the code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
it can be overwhelming at times with plethora of features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The rich UI and few propelled components are exceptionally pleasant and accommodating. It permits the QA group to vote in favor of endorsement or dismissal of force solicitations. Also, remarking and making issues has turned out to be more smooth with this instrument set up. The best some portion of Gitcolony is that it makes a concentrated interface for various vaults and you can make a force demand for every one of them without a moment's delay.

It has extra and propelled highlights over the current GitHub. The establishment and general introductory set up took a considerable measure of time. Users should be very much acclimated with the current GitHub generally may be a bit excessively overpowering for new clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Through Gitcolony, you can review the code as it is being written, while selecting multiple people to review simultaneously. This has speeded up our process while still maintaining the QC. The best feature for me has been the merging and linking of pull requests since we work on multi-repositories projects. It allows the QA team to vote for approval or rejection of pull requests.

It has some advanced features and they can improve upon the documentation and help files for the explanations. I had a hard time figuring out how to implement them for our code management process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best part of Gitcolony is that it creates a centralized interface for multiple repositories and you can create a pull request for all of them at once. Also, new commits to the destination branch are automatically merged into your pull request. It's a great tool for bug tracking and lets you highlight the syntax which helps in peer code reviewing.

It's somewhat an advanced tool. It has additional and advanced features over the existing GitHub. Beginners might have a hard time getting the hang of this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One of the most unique feature which I haven't encountered anywhere else is the multi repository pull request. Projects where more than one repositories are involved it's very difficult to make two different piece of code live on two different servers. Making a pull request which automatically gets merged on two different repository is indeed a very useful feature to have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's not very simple to use specially for people who are new to source management tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Few awesome features:-
- you can choose a merger, this is a very big problem in normal github that whose gonna merge the code and wether the guy is aware of certain problems about the feature.
- you can choose you reviewers, it's a must have feature in GIT as well, not sure why they missed it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a fairly new thing in the market, not sure how the customer support is gonna be like. Users are supposed to be well accustomed with the existing GitHub otherwise might be a bit too overwhelming for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
(a) Deliver high quality code as it's easier to review and deploy using this tool.
(b) Adds visibility to the process as UI is a lot improved than the normal GIT
(c) effective code management, one can easily choose their reviewers and assign the pull request. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not for beginners as there a lot of new features which could be way too confusing for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
