## Reviews

### "One of the easier to use" — 5.0/5

> **Nicky** | *9 April 2024* | Textiles | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ease of using the site and program. Lately, too many sites make it difficult to navigate, where this is easier with no confusion.
> 
> **Cons**: I sometimes have issues loading the site. It tends to restart or freeze.
> 
> Overall my experience has been good. I’ve used CVS for many years now and hardly ever have a complaint.

### "Old system, but sure still works" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *30 June 2022* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was probably the first of its kind I used therefore I was marveled about it. I simply loved to see a better code backup process.
> 
> **Cons**: It has no modern branch concept and whenever you need to send a code proposal you need to use code patches and write a report on how to properly apply the patch.
> 
> We had a local server which was mirrored to another backup local server. We wore 5 developers whom time per time overwrite code of one another for it has a bad history interface.

### "Cvs user turned SVN user turned GIT user" — 2.0/5

> **Andrew** | *15 September 2022* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was simple to use back in the day. Now that things are a lot more complex SVN and GIT make more sense. My organization has fully switched over and is now a GIT house.
> 
> **Cons**: It ran its course. Merging was a problem which has fully been solved with GIT as a version control solution
> 
> Used CVS as a precursor to SVN to manage commits across multiple projects

### "Old but still alive" — 4.0/5

> **Karol** | *12 October 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Sometimes centralization has advantages and then cvs can be an alternative to git.
> 
> **Cons**: To work requires a connection to the server, you can't do a commit without a server.

### "Easy to see coupons and deals at cvs" — 4.0/5

> **Keka** | *18 July 2022* | Music | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's easy to view my rewards.  I got sick of misplacing or scrolling through really long cvs paper receipts for coupons
> 
> **Cons**: I don't mind the software but I guess if you have to change information I think like a phone number it's a bit of a hassle
> 
> I've been shopping there for years and always save alot using their coupons and rewards
