"An miracle in Version Control Management: Git is developed as Open Source but it still provides very robust , reliable and secured version control management. It offers a wide range of options to manage your software and with availability of various Git based platforms like Bit-Bucket, GitHub ..etc makes it a best Software Version Management tool for anyone from individual user to Multinational Companies . Easily available support on public platforms such as google , youtube. ..etc."

"scalable enterprise solution for version control: User friendly graphical tools like the Revision Graph and file history graphs.
Securely manageable single repository as well as large repositories that delivers files quickly to distributed teams.
Efficient and effect support.
I think using the graphical interface to perforce (p4v) is a more effective way to work with perforce for most users. It makes it much easier to manage multiple workspaces, change lists, branch mappings, merging and most other functions.
Time lapse tool is just fantastic
I can not live without side-by-side diff tool at a mouse click
Command line tools are powerful but needs little more experience, that comes with time.
Applying the scripts is making daily work easy."

"Extremely private and secure repositories.: What I like very much about this great tool of AWS is that it allows users to host their software, application or project in a private repository, thus providing security to said data and information since only those users who are associated with it have access to them. project, also works in a very versatile way since it is very easy to configure so doing it will not take much time."

"Elegant version control - simpler than Git, yet as much powerful!: Quite easy for beginners to get hands-on experience with version control
HTTPS- or SSH-based flexible authentication
Simplified branching for hassle-free feature developments and version management
Extension system for incrementally enabling advanced features
Most commands are simpler than corresponding equivalents in Git etc
Ability to run local Mercurial servers for demonstration/syncing purposes
Good IDE support, often via solid third-party plugins
Deep OS/filesystem integration (e.g. context menus) via TortoiseHg and similar utilities"

"Great VCS for Game Development: After using Git and Git LFS for a few years for game development, we were looking for alternatives - the way Git handles binary files even with LFS is a bit cumbersome, to say the least. PlasticSCM on the other has been designed with binary-files in mind from the get-go, and the support for binaries is really good and it just works the same as with text files (diff is of course a bit different case, but out-of-the-box image diff support in Gluon helps a bit, and you can use any diff you like for files).
After getting used to, I have also come to like the way PlasticSCM handles DVCS - you commit straight up to a repository, but that repository can be local. The local and remote repositories are then just synced up. Kind of like git, but still different - in git the local repo is handled inside the project tree, but in PlasticSCM you basically setup your own PlasticSCM repository server which is used for committing (although this process is painless and you won't even realize it in the install program).
Great GUIs (there are two, a DVCS PlasticSCM gui and Gluon, the straight up commit to remote gui intended for artists), and commandline support help a bunch."

"For collaborative work.: This app offers a site where I can store all the information of municipal engineering and is ideal because it allows online collaborative work, and in this unit we are constantly carrying out and executing projects in the municipality in which different professionals (engineers, architects, and collaborators) and in this app they can individually work on the same project, monitor the changes made by all the users involved and then merge all the information to have the final project ready in the shortest time and with the contribution of all involved without having to be in the same space.

"Simple and readily available Version Control for Unix: I use a Unix distribution with Virtual Box on windows and use CVS on that to back up my C code. So far, CVS and Git have been my primary choices. The reason why I prefer CVS is that it's less processor intensive and integrates easily into my Unix system. It also helps backup my code so that I can back to a previous built if an unexpected error occurs. Also, there is a large community of users and open source code too."

"A good alternative to SVN and GIT: Bazaar allows you to create a shared repository for develop code. It's interesting when there are lots of persons developing together. "

"My experience with Kiln version control and code review software: Kiln ensures that my code is secure and up to date.
It uses HTTPS and SSH support allowing flexibility in user permissions.
Whenever we commit changes to our project it gives notifications to keep us informed, and also about the updates to the subscribed repositories.

"StarTeam Source Control and Change Management: For our needs, StarTeam provides a good balance between documenting the need for a change (a Change Request, for either a defect or an enhancement) and providing source control. Rules can be set that require comments for every check-in as well as linking each check-in to a Change Request, which help us ensure the quality of what is checked in and provides a trail for every check-in."
