• Potential Performance Issues
  Users might experience lag or performance issues, especially when there are many collaborators in a session or with large codebases.
• Pricing
  The platform may have pricing plans that can be a barrier for individual users or smaller organizations with limited budgets.
• Learning Curve
  New users may require some time to familiarize themselves with the platform’s interface and features.
• Limited Offline Access
  The cloud-based nature means limited offline capabilities, restricting where and when users can access their work.
