We've never had an with the number of projects or developers using this tool. We've consistently had around a thousand developers over the years. The load will increase If a customer adds another 5,000 developers, then we may see some ups and downs in the scalability aspect of this tool, but we are all good with the scalability and stability so far.

GitHub is extremely scalable. We only have about half a dozen repositories in there, but I know some organizations with hundreds working without issue. We're using it extensively. Everybody in the organization is using it, but it's fewer than 50 because our organization's pretty small. We'll increase usage naturally with time, but we're almost close to 100 percent, so it's hard to really increase usage at this point.

Web Designer | WordPress Developer at Edamame Agency

GitHub is scalable. It's just me using GitHub for my code. But if you had a bigger project with a team, you could always invite anyone to work with the code. GitHub is good for teams because everybody can start with one main code and then open their branch to code freely without destroying any other code. However, there should be one administrator who performs tests to combine each code.

I rate the tool’s scalability a ten out of ten. I have not encountered any issues with the scalability. I am using the tool for my personal projects. If I needed someone to collaborate, a maximum of five people would have access to the tool. I do not have plans to increase the usage for now.

The solution is easily scalable and encourages migration. While I have other products at hand, GitHub makes things fun. We wish to lead and expand. We want to scale this project to the next level, since we have certain customers in hand.

RN
Software Engineer at Wonders

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We plan to increase the usage of the solution. There are a lot of products out there in the market, but I wouldn't say I would recommend it, but if you use it, then it's fine. I don't really compare much as long as that's what is expected from the solution functionality-wise is fulfilled. So, then I am fine with it.

It is scalable. We can easily extend to team members, with a team of about six or seven people in a GitHub repository. Most users are developers, but we can also provide viewing access to others. We don't have any distinct plans to increase our usage of GitHub.

IT Project Management /Research & Development Team Leader at Ethiopian Roads Administration

We currently did not choose the option with the subscription, but the free version actually provided by GitHub and GitLab is acceptable for us. Maybe the institution wants to increase the number of developers to twenty from what we currently have three, then definitely we will increase and prefer to have additional services from GitHub as well as GitLab.

Michael Barlow - PeerSpot reviewer

The product is extremely scalable. We've seen applications that are hundreds of thousands of lines of code and it doesn't have any problems working with them.

I'm a contractor for the Department of Veteran Affairs, and we've easily got several thousand people making use of the code just within the VA itself. It's being used by almost everyone on a product development team, including project managers, testers, developers, and documentation specialists.

We don't require much scalability. There's the tech team and then we have around 100 developers, managers, some architectural cloud engineers, and a test engineer. They all use GitHub. We don't require maintenance but we have a cloud engineer who is mainly on AWS services. The only thing that I think they need to deal with is generating tokens for new users. We use the solution extensively.
