UI is pretty simple and good as well. While taking backup is a little bit tough but overall it's a very good product for code management.

Little tough to integrate from command prompt on windows or mac. I can't find any other defects or bugs in this software.

A whole lot of great finds to fit every budget. Great when you are looking for something to help in a pinch.

Great UI, easy to use, GitLab helps to manage projects easily, easy to review code, GitLab API is easy to use in your project.

We are very happy and pleased to use the tool. Our ci-cd and approval / reviewer workflows are fully supported; this allows are agile practices taken to reality.

The great community that manages to carry out the effectiveness of a project is so fascinating that it maintains its daily use.

I love the mobile app offered by this product and in addition to this it has a very user friendly UI,it is easy to set up and is free.

From the get go, GitLab has been amazing to work with. It was a breeze to integrate their API, too.

I do have some complaints about it. I hope that newer versions will make my complaints obsolete.

GitHub is a tool that helps you in your day to day and allows you to quickly advance in your work, it is very complete and you can find within it all kinds of things that can help you.

I would say that it is not easy to upgrade or migrate to a new server. If any function fails, the rest usually fail.

It is best secure platform to make my code go there, and it is also best in pushing and pulling my code.

Wonderful community, welcoming atmosphere, pleasant to work with all the employees I've encountered.

The best part of it is that ,it's cost friendly nature which helps not only big but also small organisations.

It is one of the best and rapid solution to share code in team and preserve it. It provides all the options to pull and push a code and it is best in terms of commits.

It's superb we can recommend for anyone. If our commit has some conflict it shows how to resolve that step by step.

Sometimes when I rebase it can create problems in graph.

It is available in both community version and Enterprise version. Version control and code review made easy with gitlab.

Some of the directions from the developers are very vague. They forget that not everyone using the platform isn't a technician genius.

My only and “first” code versioning program ever. I really recommend it over any other solution out there, the features  are top and the repositories and GUI just look so professional and awesome.

Easy to use with a modern interface. Gitlab enterprise is a nice self hosted option with good project control.

There are also a good number of settings that allow you to control options such as how you want to handle merge commits, giving you complete control over your repository.

Good repository policies, paired with good storage capacity, and speed. Great product to manage large repos.

Great for tracking issues. I love how I can keep up with the projects that I am on and to see the progress of others.

Merge conflict solver is very confusing. I think GitLab team should come up with different design to solve the conflicts.

I imported around 30 repositories in a few steps so simple and easy. I really love it, I'd been use Github and Bitbucket in the past, and GitLab is much better.

Gitlab is a great repo manager for teams in need of private repositories, continuous development, and affordable prices.

The best versioning tool for development, I recommend it without hesitation.

They also have very good slack integration in the gitlab itself which will help the devs to communicate on the platform itself.

Good for organizations where you want to keep for repositories private. It has good features in cheap price.

There are some features missing or not implemented properly in Gitlab + the lack of funding makes it ver hard to expand on Gitlab and use it full time.

Don't forget the issue tracking it's really fun to use and support markdown making it much more awesome. The community edition is really amazing with community support is marvelous.

It is easy to use and it has several advance functionality that can help you to control e improve the quality of your work.

I've struggled a bit to find this one: on large projects, the performance drops a bit (the UI lags a bit in terms of updates).

What also sets Tower apart is their great documentation and learning material. A detailed documentation is accompanied by tutorials, webinars and responsive support.

I find the user interface to be very easy to use and the feature set is fantastic. The quality is very high  as well, I can't recall running into any bugs with Tower.

It enables us to commit with confidence and solve merge conflicts with ease. Even our new developers can instantly work with Tower, even if they have never used Git before.

Sluggish with large projects to the point of freezing.

It is painful to use the arrow keys to navigate particularly long commit messages.

The only thing is : No dark mode for Windows yet.

Tower is one of those phenomenally useful tools that is done with great taste, simply works, and gets out of your way when you are heads down into your work.

I save time every single day with Tower's ease of use and excellent visualization of repositories.

The workflows are intuitive, e.g. you can perform many actions by drag and drop (from creating branches all the way to cherry-picking a commit).

So, Tower helps me to feel more safe and more confident in what I do, even if it's about the hard things in Git.

I enjoy how Tower gives you access to all of Git’s features through a user-friendly interface.

Dealing with Git conflicts, ability to quickly undo using CMD-Z and support for external diff tools are all awesome additional features.

The Windows version is still missing a few features that are already implemented on macOS.

I stumbled upon Tower, the wonderful Git client for macOS about 5 years ago. Ever since that day, I use Tower everyday for my work.

Excellent Supplement or Replacement for Command Line.

In addition to these, the ability to search by author, commit hash, file, date and ability to easily push, pull and rebase (basic expectations from any Git client) are all very well done.

In contrast: It assists where reasonable, but as said still clearly communicates what it's doing under the hood. So, to cut it short: Its UI is the perfect combination of simple yet powerful.

I particularly love how easy it is to quickly rebase your changes based on a remote branch. But there are two big features in Tower that has saved me countless hours of work.

Compared to integrated source code solutions Tower brings a nice interface which is disconnected from your IDE.

The interaction with GitHub and the integration of existing projects is just great.

GitLab is a cloud-based project management platform that allows software developers to develop and manage codes collaboratively. The platform can be deployed either on-premise or in the cloud.


GitLab helps developers manage the complete code lifecycle, from the inception of an idea to the deployment of code on production. Primary features of GitLab are Git repository management, code review, issue tracking, activity feeds and audit logs. The software is offered in four different editions: Community Edition, Enterprise Edition, GitLab.com and GitLab.io.


Users can upload their codes in the repository. GitLab also provides a repository mirroring feature that allows users to access a repository located on a different server with the help of the GitLab interface.


The code review feature allows users to evaluate code line-by-line and provide comments. The software additionally provides continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) to test, build and deploy codes.


The Enterprise Edition of the software offers automated testing, Git hooks, audit trails and administrator features.
