## Reviews

### "GitHub. The path to your success." — 5.0/5

> **Dawn** | *15 February 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The usability and the incredible features.
> 
> **Cons**: The workflow is a bit advanced. I wish if it would have been a bit more easier.
> 
> GitHub has been my one to go service when it comes to manage the source code of my projects let it be sharing with friends or publishing a dream project. Moreover it holds a strong community.

-----

### "GitHub Review for Research and Collaboration" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *20 August 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of version control, the ability to track changes, and also the seamless way it allows multiple people to work on the same project. The availability of open-source projects and the ability to learn from others' code, is also a huge plus. It helped me a lot in my research.
> 
> **Cons**: It can be a learning curve for beginners. The interface can be a bit overwhelming at first, especially for those who are new to version control or command-line tools. Also, navigating through large projects with many branches and pull requests can sometimes feel overwhelming.
> 
> Overall, my experience with GitHub has been very positive. I've used it extensively for managing and sharing code for my research projects. The platform's capabilities have been invaluable in keeping my work organized, especially when revisiting previous stages of my research. The ability to track changes, create branches, and merge code has streamlined my workflow and made it easier to manage complex projects. GitHub has become an essential tool in my research process.

### "Convenient project management and deployment" — 5.0/5

> **Josh** | *3 March 2026* | Computer Hardware | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Super easy to use. All commonly used functions are always laid out in a very user friendly layout to allow easier navigation.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing major at all. If I had to say something I would maybe like to see improvement of access to files in repos.
> 
> Always pleased with any project I am working on. Contacting the Devs for support is a breeze to have issues resolved in a timely manner everytime.

### "Reliable but stingy github actions capacity" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *26 March 2026* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I appreciate the github actions, which allows me to run automated testing for each one of my pull requests.
> 
> **Cons**: It's annoying that I am not able to have unlimited github actions for private repos that I pay for. It's limited to a cap, which I think is a little stingy considering that I am a paying customer. I would have expected the same caps as public github repos.
> 
> Overall, the experience is great. It's a very convenience way to store my git repos online, and I can trust that the data will be there to stay since it is owned by Microsoft. I've have my github for almost 10 years. Some years I am more active than others, but I can always count on the experience being consistent and reliable.

### "Good tool for code management but lacks some features when integrating with Confluence/Jira" — 3.0/5

> **Mark** | *3 June 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: GitHub is a great tool to manage pull requests and being able to add labels in our teams helps to differentiate between urgent items which need reviews and are vital for the next release.
> 
> **Cons**: One of the drawbacks with GitHub is integrating non development team members into a workflow process. Even though it is possible to setup a workflow too add approvers the terminology and UI is very developer based so can be a bit confusing to non development colleagues.
> 
> Overall GItHub is a good tool for managing code, getting reviews and merging into the relevant branch ahead of deployment. There are some good integrations but it would be great if it could work more seamlessly with Confluence and Jira, and provide additional features to help automatically manage the correct states of the linked jira.
