GitHub Reviews

The Accessibility of Data and Ease of Use!

No CONS found as of yet, but I will update if needed

Great app, you can just down your idea for issues.

There are quite a few basic features missing from the web version and i frequently find myself just using the mobile web browser instead.

Github has a ton of features. I've previously used SVN and Github is miles ahead of SVN as far as features. SVN has long been touted as "simpler" but it's actually very easy to have a simple workflow with Github as well but if you need more features you can get them. If you think of something you need you can google it and it probably already exists on Github.

Anything past a basic setup can take a very long time to learn. I've been using it for years and years and I'm still always having to learn new things about it.

This is basically the default Git hosting for software engineering. Tooling and workflows are top notch, and generally well supported with lots of information available online.

Github lacks some enterprise features, and have had some security issues (the recent outage, hacks for faking repo stars).

- Ease-of-use
- Simple yet powerful UI
- Low price
- GitHub Student Developer Pack
- Wide Community that is eager to help
- Documentation and tons of guides
- Great support

- Nothing really comes to my mind, overall it's just great.

GitHub allows version control using Git, collaboration features to co-work with other teammates, working with open-source projects, hosting (for pages) and documentation.

For new starters, GitHub might be too complex due to having several features, people interested in hosting websites with GitHub pages cannot make their repositories private unless they use GitHub Pro.

It’s the most basic choice for a reason. Great, free in most cases, and provides great customization. I love github, I use it everyday, and I would recommend it over bitbucket, gitlab, etc. It provides a whole new experience. Almost like a social media VCS.

Honestly I don’t have any complaints to share. Github is just my favorite.

Github is a feature rich platform offering everything needed for product development lifecycle as well as publishing builds out to third party services.

I don't think there is anything really I dislike, I would say that GitHub Actions could be a bit simpler to setup, but other than that, nothing.

I love the wide array of features and the usage simplicity. Everything works well and meets pretty much all of our needs as a team. GitHub is very dependable and does a great job at constantly improving and responding to feedback.

CI/CD is a bit of a rabbit hole that I wish the barrier to entry was a little lower on, but all the right tools are there if you spend the time to learn them.

Feature richness and integrations available

The code reviews process could be improved, for example the ways we can leave comments or code suggestions.

Coming from a on-premise source control manager and having Github solution with full integrated CI/CD solution and IA like Copilot you cant ask for more but even so you have option to script everything with Terraform, for us was the next step and right now is the best decision we made.

Nothing, has everything we need but even so we must use more features on the road.

Source Control is the most I like in GitHub. When we work with team, source control is important. All of team members will be pushed their codes at the same branches. If I am owner of project I will look up their code and accept their pull requests.Github's source control is easy to use to combine codes from each member. This is the one I like Github.

I think Authentication. I am a software developer and I use VS code as IDE.Github can authenticate with VS code. I have to GitHub account, one for personal and one for office work. When I was changed my personal to work account or vice visa, I'm faced with some issue that is git conflict among two accounts.I am worked with my office account, but in authentication, my account is still personal account. I think this part is needed to update about Github. This one is I like least about Github.

How it makes it more easier for developers.

It was hard at first understand commands, but now It’s easier.

Git hub provides you a platform to maintain your portfolio and your project all together. It also help in improving your CV for searching for jobs.
It helps you track your project involvement record. We can also use other persons project codes to help our projects.

Many a times private project are meant to be shared, and we cannot even ask to pull the code.

It is very easy to collaborate and work on code changes, publish releases, and run automation scripts. The UI is fast and they are improving it constantly making it quick and efficient to navigate to the repository and even the file you want.

My biggest gripe about GitHub is the billing. You have to buy a fixed number of seats and you can only increment it in 10s. So, even if you need just one extra user, you still have to pay for 10. It also takes a long time (2-3 days, more in some cases) to get the licenses added. I can't even process why this is the case. I would much rather have preferred usage billing.

GitHub is its robust version control system, facilitating seamless collaboration among developers. Additionally, users value its extensive community support, integrated issue tracking, and versatile workflow management features, making it a go-to platform for software development projects of all scales.

Have complexity of its user interface for beginners, occasional performance issues during peak usage times, and the need for more streamlined project management tools within the platform. Additionally, there have been concerns raised about GitHub's pricing structure for organizations with larger teams or specific feature requirements.

In my opinion, GitHub stands out as a top-notch platform with an intuitive user interface that makes navigation a breeze. The robust security measures instill confidence, and the extensive integrations covering source code management, issue tracking, and project management enhance its versatility. I appreciate the platform's speed, user-friendly experience, and efficient project management features like Kanban cards. GitHub's version control capabilities allow for seamless tracking and reverting of code changes. Collaborating on files or code is made easy, and the organization feature adds a layer of control with access management and team coordination. The GitHub Desktop's visual interface simplifies less-common Git commands, and GitHub Actions for continuous integration has been a game-changer in my development workflows. The insightful visualizations, including the network graph, provide valuable historical project insights. Overall, GitHub has become my go-to platform for its comprehensive suite of features, making software development and collaboration a smooth and rewarding experience.

In my opinion, managing large-sized files is hectic. Leading to efficiency issues.

A lot of good tools for managing repositories and a lot of good and well supported integrations with other platforms.

I dislike their private repositories. They are too restrictive for free users.

Collaboration that is easy, version control that is clear, and Continuous Integration that works without a hitch. The way GitHub is designed encourages new ideas and makes managing code easy and reliable.

Complex UI for complete beginners, occasional slow performance. Documentation updates could be more intuitive. Limited private repositories for free users.
