Axolo has transformed our GitHub pull request workflow with its seamless Slack integration. The platform excels at streamlining PR organization and review assignments, making our development process much more efficient. The integration between GitHub and Slack works flawlessly, ensuring our team stays informed and coordinated. The automatic notifications and clear visibility of PR status have significantly improved our team's productivity and communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Initially, we faced some challenges in organizing PR reviewer assignments and establishing a structured review process. However, these early hurdles were overcome as we became more familiar with the platform's features and capabilities. While this wasn't a long-term issue, the learning curve for optimizing reviewer management could be slightly gentler for new teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I find it difficult to track GitHub in all of the noise of notifications -- emails, UI notifications, etc. Axolo simplifies this -- new channels created for each PR I'm added to, which shows up in the default section of Slack, so I always know if it's a new PR. Then, I can quickly jump into the PR for a deep review and then follow up conversations directly in Slack once I have context. I pretty much use it multiple times a day to do my work.

Ancient PRs that are closed sometimes don't automatically archive (ie. 6 + months old). I would like a way to specify a section for all my PR channels to go to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been getting eyes on my MRs so much quicker since starting to use Axolo and as an infrequent email checker, can easily see a Slack notification when I've been tagged in an MR. I absolutely love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I don't love how I'm not sure if the people I'm tagging in my MRs are current users of Axolo. Although I can generally tell when I don't get feedback from someone for a day or two that they are likely not using Axolo.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Create Slack channels automatically for each PR created. This helps when you should check dozens of PRs by sprint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is not something that I don't like Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I favorite feature is integrating github pull requests to respective slack channels where you can chat and discuss the PR without poluting the github PR conversations. it also sync and notifies about new messages from the PR to the respective channel. once the PR is merge, the channel is archived. pretty sweet.

So far I haven't gotten any issue worth noting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most seamless integration between slack and Github I've seen. I'm really impressed with how easy it is to capture slack discussion on the pull request so its not lost for posterity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not much I dislike about it. It might be nice if you could merge, etc from slack, but otherwise its an amazing product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It makes my PR experience much better by providing updating(!) status and comments from the team. it's really easy to onboard and we use it constantly, everyday! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
there's no real way to gather all PR channels to the same group. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Axolo speeds up the review process by getting rid of the phone tag we have when going back and forth with review comments. We have been using Axolo for well over a year and use it daily.
Our team mainly works in 2 different repositories on 2 different organizations (thanks to a company merger) and reviews on the one that didn't have axolo set up were way slower and took way more wrangling of reviews to actually do a review until we eventually got Axolo set up on both repositories.
The Axolo team has been very quick to respond anytime we near to reach out to them
There are 2 killer aspects to Axolo that set it apart when we did our initial survey of what was available.
1. It make a channel dedicated to the topic so you know where to go to discuss the changes. Which reduces the times where we have the same conversation in 2 different DMs with reviewers at the same time. And then those conversations are memorialized on github so you could reference them if needed instead of searching all of your slack messages
2. Inline comments making their own thread in Slack where that particular snippet is discussed really helps keep everything straight. and makes it so that you can actually participate in the conversation without having to open github to cross-reference. Having the snippet appear in the thread also really helps out Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Non-inline comments don't start threads in github, but they can have threads in Slack, so those can make the github page look pretty messy because every Slack thread response become a solo comment in Github. I'm not sure how I would implement it differently though since that's more of a mismatch between Slack and Github than being Axolo's fault Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I receive notifications even when a PR has a small change Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing, at least until now, i don't see any down side, it's even better than the official Github bot for slack since i don't need to leave Slack to comment anything, we can even approve a PR from the slack channel Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Axolo improves greatly the collaboration between tech employees. It creates a frictionless experience between slack and github/gitlab. This soft spot between code review and usual communication is generaly a pain point in most entreprises. The bridge Axolo creates between the two helps me stay organized and focus.
Plus, thanks to the notification received at the end of each deploy I don't waste time by constantly checking github actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The admin dashboard is kind of ugly.
Besides I think they could get inspiration from Google code review's tool to help developer organize their code review in some way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
