Sebastian B
CEO
5.0

Sebastian B.: I'm Sebastian. I'm the CEO of Toyoko, and I give GitHub five out of five. I've been using SPN and so forth. They were good products, but they were centralized. That's why I switched to GitHub. I started using GitHub because everybody was doing, so I started to check it, and then I saw that it was better, especially from SPN, because I noticed a more distributed workflow. Starting with GitHub was not easy at the beginning, but now when I add somebody to the team to use GitHub, it's way easier because it improved a lot related with tutorial and documentation. So if I have to start from scratch now with GitHub, it would be easy for me. I think that GitHub nowadays is the default software for sharing and building applications. So there's not much to choose, only GitHub and GitLab, and I think that GitHub has way more features, and GitHub is the place where most people will look for your software.
