### "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.
