"Makes Collaboration Effortless"
What do you like best about GitHub?

What I appreciate most about GitHub is how effortlessly it enables collaboration among teams. Tracking changes, reviewing code, and managing version control are all straightforward, so there’s no concern about losing progress. The pull request and branch features help keep projects organized and transparent, even when several contributors are involved. I also value how smoothly it integrates with tools such as VS Code and various CI/CD platforms. All in all, GitHub is dependable, user-friendly, and clearly designed with practical teamwork in mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

At times, the settings and permissions can become somewhat confusing, particularly within larger organizations that manage multiple repositories. Adjusting access levels or setting up Actions for more intricate workflows often requires some experimentation. Additionally, the interface could be more user-friendly when handling numerous repositories. However, these concerns are relatively minor when weighed against the overall functionality and reliability that GitHub offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Collaboration, Reliable Version Control"
What do you like best about GitHub?

I use GitHub for managing my Python and Java projects and some React work. I like that GitHub is easy and versatile, which helps me manage projects with my teammates and maintain durable copies of my projects. When I lose files, GitHub keeps them available for me, which is really helpful. I find it convenient to add a teammate in GitHub and manage projects together. The setup was quite easy too; anyone with a little knowledge about making accounts can create and manage them efficiently. I've been using GitHub from the beginning, and I'd rate it a 10 on how likely I am to recommend it to a friend or colleague. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

GitHub should add a feature to manage projects based on duration for the team so they don't get lazy and skip work or delay it until the end, potentially ruining the project. A checkbox below the teammates showing how much project work is done for today in how much time would accelerate the work efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's proactive community,seamless collaboration,massive plugins as a force to reckon for project dev"

I love it for proactive community which is supportive and ready to help even most of my problems i found a solution that was sorted some few months a go. Incredible for cloud storage of all my development projects. Reliable for its version control with seamless updates. It is constantly evolving. Effective for seamless collaboration with teams to share code or the entire projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

First it acts as my storage unit for all my development projects then best for sharing my code with teammates and simultaneous editing boosting productivity in an incredible way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Collaboration, Streamlined Issue Tracking"
What do you like best about GitHub?

I use GitHub for issue tracking and project boards, which help manage bugs, features, and tasks alongside the codebase. GitHub solves my issues by logging bugs, feature requests, and tasks and linking them to branches and pull requests, giving every problem a clear fix history. I like the easy collaboration feature with pull requests, code reviews, issues, and project boards that let teams work together smoothly from anywhere. The open-source community vibe is great; I enjoy collaborating with strangers worldwide to fix real tools we use and see our changes merged. GitHub’s initial setup is quite easy, creating an account and our first repository usually takes only a few minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

It is an amazing tool and community, but it should not define someone’s worth as a programmer on its own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The most reliable platform for version control and collaboration"
What do you like best about GitHub?

GitHub makes collaboration seamless with pull requests, code reviews, and branching strategies. The integration with CI/CD pipelines and Actions is extremely helpful, saving a lot of manual effort. Its huge open-source community and marketplace provide endless resources and integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

Some advanced features (like GitHub Enterprise or security scanning) are behind higher pricing tiers, which may not be affordable for smaller teams. The web UI can feel a little slow at times for large repositories, and managing complex permission structures could be more intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Tool for Developers and Teams"
What do you like best about GitHub?

The tool is valuable because it helps us work in a distributed environment with multiple people across different locations and time zones. We have a common repository that everyone works on, which would be tough to manage manually. GitHub helps us maintain this single source of truth. Everyone can check out their own branches, which is important for our branching strategies. We can fork, check out feature branches, work on our code, and merge back into parent branches for deployment. This is crucial when multiple people are working on the same codebase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

I haven’t encountered any major issues so far. The platform works smoothly and reliably. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"CI build powerful&& Mange repository"
What do you like best about GitHub?

Github manages the project as repository. And GitHub cicd build is powerfull. Helps to use CI pipelines.

Pull Requests & Code Review – Smooth collaboration for open source and teams.

GitHub Actions – Automate CI/CD, testing, and deployments.

Issues & Projects – Great for tracking bugs, features, and project planning.

Dependabot – Automatic dependency updates with security alerts.

GitHub Copilot – AI-powered code suggestions.

What do you dislike about GitHub?

Limited project management – GitHub Projects is okay, but not as powerful as Jira, Trello, or full-featured PM tools.

Dependence on Git – Beginners often find Git commands confusing, and GitHub doesn’t fully hide that complexity.

Performance issues on huge repos – Large monorepos or binary-heavy projects can slow down.

Code search (until recently) – The old search was limited; even with the new semantic/code search, it still isn’t perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
