What do you like best about Git Tower?

I am an experienced Git CLI user with many aliases. I didn't think an App would make me faster. Since I started using Git Tower, my workflow has improved and I get work done significantly faster.

If you are new to Git, the GitTower app makes using Git approachable with an excellent GitHub integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

It used to be a one-time fee software. Although the switch to subscription was difficult for me to stomach, I think it's totally worth the fee, especially for the deep Github integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not having to use the Git CLI is why I love Git Tower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

Thank you for the kind words, Collins! We're happy to learn that Tower makes your life a little easier 🥳

What do you like best about Git Tower?

A great looking UI to manage Git repositories that takes the complexity out of using the Git CLI which can be daunting for many. It is also packed with plenty of features to keep even the CLI users happy but without detracting you too far from the Git principles like some Git GUIs do with "sync" style behaviour. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

It could do with better integration for commit hooks. It's fiddly to get it working and keep it working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it to manage all my personal (and some work) Git repositories. I find the stash and branch management particularly useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

Thank you for the kind words, Sam! That's wonderful to hear 🥳

Regarding commit hooks: we will see what can be improved in the future.

What do you like best about Git Tower?

Since I use Tower, git has become a true friend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

Nothing. The subscription model is fairly priced, and they are regularly working on fixes and features. Support is friendly and direct. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Git Tower solving and how is that benefiting you?

* The GUI is very intuitive, stable, and reliable.

* Git can be confusing sometimes. Talk about merges, conflicts, cherry-picks, pull requests, git flow, hotfixes, force pushes... the GUI helps beginners understand the underlying principles - and simplifies the handling for experts. (For example, cherry-picking by drag&drop is very intuitive and logical. Or triggering a bitbucket pipeline directly from Tower instead of the slow browser.)

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

Thank you for your review, Urs! "Since I use Tower, git has become a true friend" - we should use that tagline! 😎
