What do you dislike about SCM-Manager?

Some things that I have figured out as limitations of this application as per my experiences are -

Limited scalability: SCM-Manager is designed for small to medium-sized teams and may not be suitable for large organizations with hundreds or thousands of users.

Limited support for distributed version control systems (DVCS) other than Git, Mercurial, and Subversion, which limits the flexibility of the system if a team prefers a different DVCS

Limited support for advanced features such as code review and merge requests, which can limit its usefulness for teams that require these features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
