The only reason I looked outside of GitHub was Bitbucket's free private repos.

Now, for our academic lab, we're working entirely with Bitbucket (for the UI), and repositoryhosting (for low-cost repo archival with many users).

In an academic setting, where private repos are created for each small collaborative project, then left idle but accessible, GitHub's per-private-repo pricing model is prohibitive.



BitBucket has better user and permissions management for businesses, although github is slowly improving.
