"“A Reliable and Intuitive Git Client for Streamlined Version Control”"
What do you like best about Git Tower?

Git Tower provides a clean and intuitive interface for managing repositories without constantly relying on the command line. I really like how it simplifies complex Git operations — like rebasing, resolving conflicts, and branching — into clear visual actions. The integration with GitHub, Bitbucket, and GitLab works seamlessly, and the commit history view makes tracking changes much easier. It’s a huge productivity boost, especially for managing multiple projects efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

There’s not much to dislike, but sometimes it slows down with really large repos. The pricing can be a little steep for solo users, and I wish there were more customization options for diff and merge views. Still, those are minor things compared to how much smoother it makes version control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Ultimate Git GUI for Mac Power Users"
What do you like best about Git Tower?

As a long-time user of GitTower, I can say it's the gold standard for Git GUI clients (I've tried most of them haha). This stellar native macOS app has been my go-to for nearly eight years, from my college days to my professional career.

The seamless integration with GitHub and GitLab is a standout feature. It's so efficient that I've completely forgotten what the web interfaces for pull requests look like. For power users, the well-designed keyboard shortcuts are a productivity game-changer.

GitTower's customer support is exceptional. They're always available and have consistently provided great experiences over the years. Perhaps most importantly, GitTower has demystified Git for me – there's no feature I'm afraid to use anymore.

If you're looking for a robust, user-friendly Git client that grows with your skills, GitTower is the way to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

I miss support for stacked pull requests, but that feature is already in development! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

Thank you for your support throughout the years, Bartosz! We are honored to have Tower acknowledged as the gold standard of Git clients by you 🙏

We are actively working on Stacked PR support, and Tower 12 will introduce some features related to it. We hope you find them helpful!

Here's to 8 more years! 🥂

"The best GUI for Git."
What do you like best about Git Tower?

Tower has been my go-to Git client for over a decade now. When I was early in my career, tower helped me under stand git concepts very quickly, as I am more of a visual learner. I've never turned back. I've recommended it to many colleagues over the years. The most used/useful feature for me has to be stash management. I use this feature daily, and it helps keep an easy/visual record of work I've done while switching branches. I also love their merge conflict tooling. I've always just used the default firemerge integrationand its great. I love how easy it is to see difs and choose what you want to keep. Tower makes me feel like a Git power user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

There are a few cases where I can't do operations within tower, for instance, the company I work at uses nix-shell to do some dependency management (including git hooks) and there's no way to tell tower to execute commands within that environment (at least that I'm aware of). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

Wow, a decade! That's so nice to read, Alex! 🤩

Thank you for the kind words — we're delighted to learn that we've made Git easier to use! If you enjoy using stashing, you might also appreciate one of Tower's exclusive features: Snapshots, which were introduced in Tower 9 (https://www.git-tower.com/blog/tower-mac-9/) ✌️

We appreciate your support, Alex. Here's to another 10 years! 🥂

"Objectively the best Git client out there"
What do you like best about Git Tower?

Great shortcuts including amazing CMD+Z support, proper rebase support, so easy to do basic things like amend, squash, fixup, commit or message edits, HEAD reset, etc, and it's just a very solid piece of software, always reliably delivering value.

This is basically the first software I get every time I join a new company. I've been using it for ~10 years and it's been amazing to see how the product consistently evolved over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

The only downside is that you have to pay for it, but it's always pretty easy for me to convince my company to pay. Plus, they have a great free trial and they'll extend it for you if you need it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

"Objectively the best Git client out there" — oh, we love that tagline! 😍

Thank you so much for your kind words and support over the years, Fred! We are thrilled to know that we hold such a high place on your list!

"My favourite Mac Git client"
What do you like best about Git Tower?

I've been using Git Tower for the last 2 years and I couldn't see myself ever not having it in my toolbox now - I use it almost every single day. It 99% of my git usage seemless, easy and the UI is exceptional. I recommend it to all of the developers I speak to! Not to mention on the very few times I've needed to contact customer support, they have always been super quick and helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

Honestly? I cant think of a single thing I dislike! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Bruno Brito of Git Tower

Wow, thank you for your kind words, Aaron! It's truly heartwarming to read that Tower is a part of your daily life!

Here's to many more years ahead! 🥂

"Simple yet powerful Git client for everyday tasks"
What do you like best about Git Tower?

Git can be super complicated. You can read dozens of books on it in order to master it. Or, you can use an easy-to-use GUI client like Git Tower. I am using it on macOS, where it integrates beautifully. It especially makes managing branches, merge conflicts and stashes very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Git Tower?

I have not found any big issue in my day-to-day work, just the GitHub integration un-configured itself once (which was easy to fix though) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

“You can read dozens of books on it in order to master it. Or, you can use an easy-to-use GUI client like Git Tower.”

Thanks for the kind words, Lukas — we're glad you find Tower much easier to use!
