"Best version control management with automated deployments"

"Boost Your Team's Productivity with GitHub's Intuitive Platform"
What do you like best about GitHub?

GitHub has great collaboration features that allow our development team to work on the same project together. From code reviews and discussions, it dramatically streamlines our ability to push great code to our customers. It also offers excellent version control through Git, keeping our team updated on code changes. It's easy to start with their free hosting, so it's a no-brainer for students wanting to learn to code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

The learning curve can be a bit steep for beginners. Once you understand the core concepts like branching, merging, and resolving conflicts, it gets much more straightforward. Large binary files and large media content can slow repository performance and storage costs. Free private repositories are limited in features and size. If you have multiple private repositories, get ready to pay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good product until you starts to upgrade to Github Enterprise"
What do you like best about GitHub?

Most of my engineers are already familiar with Github as a version control platform. Customer support is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

Github Enterprise sales and pricing is very opaque and arbitrary. In two companies I have engaged with 3 people on their sales team. They can offer discounts from 15%, 40%, up to 60%. You end up with different deals depending on who you engage with. This time, we dealt with an AE Nick, and a Senior Director Karen J. Karen kept offering deals/terms worse than the one from Nick, who is from her own team! And I had to point it to her. It shows how uncoordinated and arbitrary this is. It is very frustrating process to deal. So we stopped our expansion plan on Github (Advanced Security and Github Actions). We may even consider swtiching to Gitlab altogether. There are just so many strong alternatives on this market for security and CI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A fantastic version control for your project"
What do you like best about GitHub?

1. Very simple to setup, as you login every command is provided to help you go through basics.

2. I like the one thing about github rebasing is that it does not collapse the code, as I faced such problems in Bitbucket.

3. Repository sharing feature is just the best. You get to shine the profile for your open source projects.

4. Since backuped by Microsoft, I have no trust issues regarding security and performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

1. Github has been amazing, all my repos are still there and I use it. Why do not many companies use it, such an amazing productive tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
