Are you considering leaving Perforce?

P4 was THE option for game developers, but it is now quite outdated and teams are looking for alternatives

What to consider if you’re working with Perforce?

If you are considering moving away from Perforce or maybe thinking on it for your next project, then take the following into account.

P4V is not as Artist friendly as it might seem

Perforce’s GUI is very cluttered, with many options, making it difficult for artists and even programmers to use.

Perforce is mainly for teams who run their own server

If you are cloud-first, then you don't consider spending a minute on setting up, administering and fixing a server. Perforce needs to be properly maintained to run smoothly.

Branching in Perforce is slow

Most of the biggest studios using Perforce simply can't create branches because they can't wait half an hour for a big branch to be created.

Perforce’s focus is not on version control anymore

Perforce's portfolio goes beyond only version control. For Diversion, solving version control for game developers is all we think about.

Why is Diversion better?

Diversion has been designed with game developers in mind.
Here is how:

Diversion is simple to use

Artists and modern developers feel at home because Diversion is very similar to the tools they love. It just does the work, as transparently as possible. No need for a gigantic list of options or antiquated designs.

Diversion is cloud based

Forget about setting up or running your own server. Would you do it for your email server or project management solution these days? Don't waste time babysitting your server and let us help you so you can focus on your work.

Diversion means fast branches

Branches in Diversion are super fast, milliseconds. No matter how big your project gets, you can continue creating branches because full copies simply don't happen.

Full access to the team

Join our Discord. Meet the team. Talk to us. Diversion evolves quickly and we are open to steer the product to make it exactly what our users need. This is radically different to what other solutions in the market can offer. Take advantage of it!

How can I try Diversion?

Just signup in our website and start using it. Fully cloud based, but with command line and desktop tool available too.

Try a fresh start

Just upload your entire working copy to Diversion and start from there. This will get you started on minutes, and then you can figure out if Diversion is for you (We don't have a Perforce migration tool that users can manage themselves, but we can help you with the migration process).
