What is Axolo?

Axolo is a bi-directional Slack & GitHub/GitLab integration. With Axolo, tech teams can collaborate on pull requests seamlessly. Each pull request creates a temporary Slack channel where all information (deployments, pull request checks, and code comments) will be shared. Axolo takes all of the normal back-and-forths on GitHub and Slack to centralize the conversation in ephemeral pull request channels. But this is only step 1! Features: 💭 An ephemeral Slack channel for each pull request: Axolo opens a Slack channel each time one of your collaborators opens a pull request. Only people that should be invited (reviewers & assignees) are invited. ⏰ PRs reminders: Set up Axolo to send daily reminders in stale PRs. 💻 A complete synch for code reviews: Each Github code review comment creates a new Slack thread. Then, the following comments from GitHub or Slack are sent to the other tool. 👀 High-level view on your team's PRs: With team-specific notifications, Axolo will send new pull request notifications in team channels and react upon the status of the PR (awaiting review, work in progress, mergeable, ...). 🤖 Approve pull requests with /lgtm: Developers can use /lgtm to approve a pull request directly in PR channels! 🏀 All your PRs are a command away: Ask /axolo open to show all open PR of your organization, /axolo me for your open PRs, and /axolo team [name of your team] to show all PRs from a specific team. 🕵️‍♂️ Organize your stand-ups with daily PR recap: You can set up Axolo to send daily PR recap to specific channels to organize your stand-ups. ⏳ Dedicated times for code review: Organize your time with code review time slots and let Axolo notify you only when you're available. Save your development sessions from distractions.

What do you like best about Axolo?

Very easy to set up. Very easy to use. The tools doesn't come in your way, just privides the information you need when you need it.

The Axolo mascot is also incredibly cute! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have not found anything that we dislike about it. The most annying thing is that Axolo can't create Slack channels with charachters outside of ASCII spec, like ÆØÅ. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axolo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Axolo has been been a great boost to our GitHub workflow in a small team of developers and designers. We use it to easily integrate with Slack so that we can focus on what needs to be reviews right now.

What do you like best about Axolo?

It forces us to work closer together in our engineering team.

With the daily reminder and the open chats in Slack we develop really fast now.

Feedback cycles are pretty small and we can either add comments in the code or in Slack - which is perfect for answering threads without switching tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axolo?

They removed the button for the MR in Slack lately - really loved it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axolo solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps us communicate in one tool and iterate fast on Merge Requests. Most open requests are closed within 1-2 days nowadays.

We improved our development speed by good 20%. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Axolo?

Their main pitch is spot on, we use it mainly for reviews and reminding people about open merge requests on our gitlab, and it delivers in spades.

Keep it up! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axolo?

- gitlab hook got stuck, wasn't clear this was an issue until I contacted support, they answered promptly and fixed it

- maybe more gitlab customisation for number or revews etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axolo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing lots and lots of merge requests against a monorepo by a team of 20+ people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't encountered any problems while using it yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Axolo?

The automatic Slack notification of open MR and MR status change. Discussing an MR directly in Slack, in a dedicated MR channel is easier than switching to the GitLab UI. Also, the Axolo team is both very receptive to suggestions and fast to implement improvements and bug fixes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axolo?

The Slack emojis on an MR reflect the entire lifecycle of the MR (all states it has ever been in). An alternative would be to show its current state only. Our team was slightly confused by this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axolo solving and how is that benefiting you?

GitLab lacks adequate control over Slack notifications for Merge Requests. Axolo fills this void. We no longer need to cut and paste MR URLs into Slack manually. Axolo also reduces button-clicking in the GitLab UI, because Slack can be used to assign a Reviewer and also Approve an MR. We no longer need to watch for email notifications and context-switch to the GitLab UI to have the discussion -- Axolo automatically opens (and archives) a channel dedicated to the MR discussion.

What do you like best about Axolo?

Being able to chat about PRs within slack is awesome. It brings the visibility of issues and discussions right in front of the team quickly and easily. Things used to often get lost or state when just doing PRs on github. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axolo?

I wish the free version was for one more person because that is the size of our team :P Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axolo solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's helped our iteration cycle get much faster. People are quicker to review and re-review PRs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Axolo?

Slack integration with GitLab works like magic. It helps to do code reviews much faster and more efficiently. As Slack is one place notification centre in our company, it is helpful to see what mrs, where you are a reviewer, is open to. Helps to receive notifications when someone answers on the discussion thread. We also use an additional review plugin for IDEA, which also synchronises comments with GitLab and axolo works great with this. Also, the team and support of axolo are ultra-client-oriented. They answered questions in chat fast and even arranged a call when we had some functionality thing to discuss. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Axolo?

Well, all core functionality is excellent. But if we need to find something to dislike, a minor problem will be synchronising images from slack to Gitlab and vice versa. Right now, this is not working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Axolo solving and how is that benefiting you?

Help to enlarge the speed and effectiveness of code review. Adds notification into any updates in code review, to react on it fastly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
