Beanstalk vs GitHub Enterprise: What are the differences?

Beanstalk: Private code hosting for teams. A single process to commit code, review with the team, and deploy the final result to your customers; GitHub Enterprise: The on-premises version of GitHub, which you can deploy and manage in your own, secure environment. GitHub Enterprise lets developers use the tools they love across the development process with support for popular IDEs, continuous integration tools, and hundreds of third party apps and services.

Beanstalk and GitHub Enterprise can be primarily classified as "Code Collaboration & Version Control" tools.

Some of the features offered by Beanstalk are:

  • Setup and manage repositories- Import or create Subversion and Git repositories that are instantly available to your team.
  • Invite team members, partners & clients- Restrict access to certain repos and provide read-only or full read/write permissions.
  • Browse files and changes- Every version of every file you’ve committed to Beanstalk is just a click away. See a timeline of who made changes and view the differences between revisions. Syntax highlighting for over 70 languages.

On the other hand, GitHub Enterprise provides the following key features:

  • Compliance and auditing
  • Hundreds of integrations
  • Flexible deployment

According to the StackShare community, GitHub Enterprise has a broader approval, being mentioned in 39 company stacks & 48 developers stacks; compared to Beanstalk, which is listed in 21 company stacks and 8 developer stacks.

Needs advice

BitbucketBitbucket
and
GitHub EnterpriseGitHub Enterprise

We are using a Bitbucket server, and due to migration efforts and new Atlassian community license changes, we need to move to a new self-hosted solution. The new data-center license for Atlassian, available in February, will be community provisioned (free). Along with that community license, other technologies will be coming with it (Crucible, Confluence, and Jira). Is there value in a paid-for license to get the GitHub Enterprise? Are the tools that come with it worth the cost?

I know it is about $20 per 10 seats, and we have about 300 users. Have other convertees to Microsoft's tools found it easy to do a migration? Is the toolset that much more beneficial to the free suite that one can get from Atlassian?

So far, free seems to be the winner, and the familiarization with Atlassian implementation and maintenance is understood. Going to GitHub, are there any distinct challenges to be found or any perks to be attained?

These are pretty competitive, and to recommend one over the other would require understanding your usage. Also, what other tools you use: for instance, what do you use for Issue-tracking, or for build pipelines. In your case, since you are already using Bitbucket, the question would be: do you have any current pain-points? And, on the other hand, do you already use Atlassian's JIRA, where you'd benefit from the tight integration? So, though I would not recommend one over the other just in general,. But, if Bitbucket fulfills your current use-cases, then there seems to be little motivation to move.
