Overall Satisfaction with GitHub

GitHub has been a boon to me and my company. We are focused on developement of softwares and web applications.It is a necessity in our company to manage the different versions of our products for efficient developement and deployment. GitHub has been helping a lot in this field. With the help of git version control system, we can easily switch between two versions of our product with a single click. Besides from version control, GitHub has been helping our company members to work in a team. A developers adds some feature in the product and then pushes it to GitHub. The pushed code is then pulled by another developer. In this way, we are able to develop quality codes with an ease in overall development tasks.
  • Able to switch back to previous code if error occurs while running present code.
  • Enables us to work in a team in an effective manner.
  • Allows giving roles and access to specific people assigned.
  • We can choose between private and public repository that enhances privacy.
  • Deleting a folder is pretty hard in GitHub. It should be made as easy as deleting a file.
  • It would be better if the code editing environment has more features like other IDEs.
  • Agile Development
  • Version Control System
  • Inbuilt Editor
  • Static Page deployment feature
  • GitHub has enhanced development speed which ultimately resulted in more projects completion.
  • GitHub has created a healthy environment among our developers resulting in greater yield.
  • Increase in Company Revenue.
GitHub stacks up against all of its competitors due to its ease of use and great UI that tops the all. I selected GitHub considering its popularity greater developer community. GitHub also provides Student Developer Pack that we can use to enhance our knowledge and get up to date knowledge of the various tools currently available.

GitHub is well suited in IT firms, companies and offices where coding is required for creating desired products for client. It is less appropriate for the places which are not oriented to technical backgrounds like shops, retaurants, etc. However, in this age of science and technology, GitHub can be used in any places since IT is becoming an integral part everywhere in our day-to-day activities.
