We performed a comparison between GitHub and Sonatype Repository Firewall based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Application Security Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."You can write the code with AI. But when it comes to implementation, you must upgrade the bits of code that will support this and generate solutions based on that architecture. Then, you need comparable code bits. Therefore, AI can propose how much a specific function can be better optimized. So, AI can help stakeholders reach tasks quicker."
"The product has a very user-friendly interface and user-friendly security."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it's cloud-based, and we don't have to manage an on-premises server to use it."
"The most valuable features are GitHub are the standard features, they are very useful."
"We are finding GitHub is very stable."
"GitHub is good for collaboration because everyone can access it or we can restrict access to a few users. If I upload a file and share the URL, it's not restricted to a set number of users. Everyone with the link can download the files."
"It has a lot of features from the code development perspective. You get a lot of features such as repo, commit, merge, and branch. You can play around and do things on the fly. It is easy and simple to deploy. It is also easier to use when working from home."
"The ease of use is valuable."
"Another thing that I like about Sonatype is that if you download something today, and five days from today it becomes vulnerable, it will notify you."
"The product's network and intrusion protection features are valuable. It also has rules and compliance features for security."
"GitHub could expand the limits of the free version."
"The user interface on GitLab is better."
"GitHub could improve by being more user-friendly."
"The security point should be addressed in the next release and scaling is also an issue."
"I think it would be valuable to have more security. Some of the data is very open to everyone."
"The initial setup requires heavy documentation which can be challenging for new developers."
"Our firewall was blocking cloning and downloading with SSH."
"Lacks sufficient support in terms of professional services that could be provided."
"What I don't like is the lack of an option to pick up the phone and call someone for support. That is something they need to improve on. They need to have a professional services package, or they need to include that option with their services."
"The tool needs to improve its file systems. The product should also include zero test feature."
