Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We use the tool to store codes.""All of the features in Git are useful.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Since I am a very simple user of the tool, its scalability is good for me.""The features I am most impressed by is the automation.""Version control is beneficial as it allows me to keep track of all the modifications I have made to the applications.""Git offers the ability to roll back to the previous version. You can also track all the small changes that you do.""I like Git's merging feature. For example, say there is an instance where I am working on the same code as another developer. Git automatically merges the work of two developers on the same file. If I'm working on line 50 and he's working on 60, and we both commit, it mergest automatically.""The product protects our data."

More Git Pros →

"They have some nice features around the automation of rule checking. They have a rules engine that checks the SQL code so that you can actually do your edit checks on the validity of the SQL code. If you don't want certain tables to be able to have certain things done to them, you can have it checked for that. It's a very flexible way to kind of do an automated peer review of the SQL code to catch things before you actually try to deploy it."

Cons
"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.""I would like more documentation.""We would like to see tutorials added to the product, for new users to follow so that they can optimize their use of the solution.""The platform could have a feature for monitoring data recovery similar to Azure.""The main problem for me is the frequent upgrades in the solution because every other upgrade is a minefield. When you do the upgrade, there is always something that doesn't work.""If the solution could provide more language support options such as Korean, it would be helpful.""I would rate the initial setup process a four, on a scale from one to 10, with one being the most difficult and 10 being the easiest. The reason for this rating is that once there are conflicts, it takes a lot of effort to resolve them.""I would like to see less updates with the product."

    Overview
    Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance. It outclasses SCM tools like Subversion, CVS, Perforce, and ClearCase with features like cheap local branching, convenient staging areas, and multiple workflows.

    Liquibase is a migration-based open source database version control solution that relies on a changelog to track what changesets have been deployed to a database, and what additional changesets needs to be applied to a database in order to migrate a database schema to a specific version. Liquibase supports an XML model for defining changesets so that database schema changes can easily be translated to another DBMS platforms. As an open source solution, Liquibase is ideal for smaller teams and projects or for teams that have ample time to invest in extending and adapting the open source capability to meet their needs.
