"I did not have any issues with the stability of Github. It worked seamlessly."
"I use this solution to store my code in a repository so we can manage version control which is useful."

"The control is the most valuable feature as developers can work on a single code."
"The learning curve is small."

"GitHub could expand the limits of the free version."
