GitHub Reviews & Product Details

GitHub has phenomenal ease of use due to its clean user interface and intuitive navigation. It's easy for beginners to get started, and has a short learning curve for experienced developers. The setup process is easy and allows you to create a project and integrate it with Git in no time. GitHub is a part of my weekly workflow for version control and code collaboration, and project management. GitHub provides a wealth of features including pull requests, actions, issue tracking, discussions, etc., that allow the team to stay productive. GitHub integrates seamlessly with a variety of other tools, be it Slack, CI/CD, Trello, and many others. The ease of onboarding customers has limited direct customer support, but after testing and using the platform, the active community and documentation makes it easy to fix most user issues.

GitHub is arguably the best platform, however, as a beginner, I felt overwhelmed by some of the functions GitHub offered and the complexities of getting started with Git. For example, the interface feels cluttered with too much going on at times. Private repositories and team features were also limited on the free plan, and responses from customer support for free users took forever at times. GitHub also did not handle monorepos efficiently, nor did it handle binary files when leveraging Git LFS. Some integrations added additional setup times to be useful, and I feel the project board experience is shallow compared to dedicated tools like Jira or Trello. All that goes to say, I think it is a fantastic tool, but GitHub has room to improve the usability, flexibility, pricing models, and performance at the enterprise scale.

As a developer is my lifeline with tracking every changes with my code, exceptional repository, seamless collaboration and best there is with version control. I am able to do everything with free trial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It not a need but a want for every developer like to have as your basic tools for development. Can't imagine not to have it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use and implementation means I can start new projects in minutes, not hours. Despite its vast number of features, the integration with other tools is seamless, and on the rare occasion I need it, the customer support is fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Discovering interesting new projects or people can be harder than it should be, as the explore features aren't its strongest point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a nice, clear web interface to compare what was changed in a set of files, add comments and improvement suggestions and manage a code change in a team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is based on Git which I don’t like as much; it is over complicated for anything I need. But GitHub is a really nice tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GitHub provides an exceptional platform for collaboration, version control, and CI/CD integration. Its clean UI, powerful integrations (especially with GitHub Actions), and support for both individual and team workflows make it a core part of our development process. Features like pull requests with code reviews, branch protection rules, and Discussions make team collaboration efficient and transparent. The recent improvements in Copilot and Codespaces show a strong push toward developer productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning curve for advanced workflows (like Actions or monorepo management) can be a bit steep for newcomers. Occasionally, performance lags during high-traffic times or when viewing large diffs. Also, private repo pricing can get expensive at scale. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about GitHub is the control it gives me over my projects. I can do everything from traveling back in time to review old commits, to harnessing the full power of GitHub Actions for my projects' CI processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Currently, I don't have any concerns about it. The only comment might be paying for certain services I enjoy, such as the AI-powered PR summarization feature, but that's reasonable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like GitHub because it makes collaboration easy, keeps version history safe, and integrates well with other tools for development. I am using it daily bases for storing ans securing my code. Its easy to implement not much complex. Me and my team is doing push and pull the code daily so team management is easy also work management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes GitHub is a little slow and confusing, especially when working with big projects. Handling merge conflicts is also not very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pull request reviews are where GitHub shines for our QA team. I can comment directly on test files when I spot flaky assertions or missing edge cases. Actions runs our Android tests automatically on every PR - no more "works on my machine" excuses. The branch protection rules ensure no one merges without passing tests. Issue tracking links perfectly with our test failures, making bug reproduction straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Actions sometimes queues forever during peak hours. The mobile app is pretty useless for reviewing code changes. Large test report files hit the size limit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This platform offers some of the best repositories for development, making it easy to find useful resources. I also appreciate being able to reference other people's code, which is very helpful. Additionally, the user interface is excellent and makes navigation smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't enjoy using Git Desktop because it feels laggy to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
