We performed a comparison between Git and GitHub based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Git has a lot of online tutorials and resources available."
"Git is a product everyone uses, so it's almost inescapable. I like the fact that there is a large ecosystem around it. You can bolt various graphical user interfaces onto it or sign up for various repositories like GitHub and AWS CodeCommit. Git has a large community, so there are lots of resources and knowledge bases you can use."
"The best thing about this solution is that it can be learned very quickly, and used very easily."
"Git is easy to manage...It is helpful for me and easy to manage the interface we are using from development to production."
"Git is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The implementation is easy."
"I like that it's easy to use and because it's accessible from a terminal or a graphical user interface if needed. I also like that we can pass comments from Linux if required."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"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."
"I like the CI/CD features."
"The code sharing and updated history are valuable features."
"I'm able to access any repository that I like, whether it's public or private."
"The solution can scale."
"The product has a very user-friendly interface and user-friendly security."
"GitHub is convenient and easy to use."
"I would like to see less updates with the product."
"It's not very user-friendly."
"New developers sometimes find it difficult to call a review or create a request."
"It would be preferable if the updates could be completed at a faster pace."
"The tool's user interface is terrible. It needs to be more user-friendly."
"The platform could have a feature for monitoring data recovery similar to Azure."
"If other people are included in their project, you're going to have to make merge requests to merge the code you made, and the code your colleagues have made. So it's a little bit complicated."
"Git can improve the size of the depository it can handle and add the capability to detect the change between common files, such as Excel and PDF documents."
"From the recruiting standpoint, I would like to see email IDs and phone numbers and a brief introduction about their profile."
"The stability can be improved."
"It is currently only from the development perspective. It doesn't have features related to project management and testing. It is not like Azure. So, there is a lot of room for improvement. It is a version control product, and it would be good if they can come up with a complete DevOps product."
"The project management sector really needs some improvement for GitHub. I don't know if GitHub made sense for me as a project manager."
"As of now, if I would like to learn about GitHub or its features, I would have to look on YouTube. It would be nice if they were able to send out a newsletter with explanations of new features that they are offering and what features are available."
"There could be more integration into Azure."
"The security point should be addressed in the next release and scaling is also an issue."
"GitHub could add some more security features."
