Find out in this report how the two Version Control solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution's initial setup process is straightforward."
"The interface is very good and is easy to use. It tells you when you've committed, when you've uploaded, and gives you the differences."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to fix a broken repository merge."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"A great feature is being able to have different repositories and different kinds of projects in a single solution at a single time. It's just a click away."
"The deployment is fast since we just have to run the script, and once it's done, it takes a few minutes."
"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 features that I have found most valuable are that it can support you for most of the road map and it can automate some tasks which works really well with collaboration with the teams. They are really interested in how they organize the history of the code itself which is good."
"We use GitHub as a repository."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"GitHub is the best tool for source repositories."
"The solution has been stable for us."
"Its interface could be easy to understand for a programmer."
"I have had a food experience with Atlassian SourceTree but it might not be for everyone."
"The product's UI needs improvement."
"For everyday use, I am more comfortable using the command line interface, rather than using SourceTree."
"It would be good if there were training materials for junior developers."
"The security point should be addressed in the next release and scaling is also an issue."
"While using the solution when merging two code branches the code becomes a bit messy. This should be improved in the future."
"Github needs more storage."
"If something has to be moved into approvals, and if they don't approve it in a few hours, then they should move the approval request to some other user, or they should have a way to escalate it."
"If you are uploading or cloning a large file, with more than 25 megs, it's pretty slow."
"They're improving the work items to track the progress of the team, but in my experience, Azure DevOps is better in this functionality. GitHub needs to improve the form to track the progress of the work done by a team."
"The user interface on GitLab is better."
