I like the fact that it comes with Intellisense and also the ability to configure servers and test out the codes directly in the IDE. It also comes tightly integrated with the ColdFusion. Step-through debugging is also another interesting feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ColdFusion Builder? There is a lot not to like here, ranging from being buggy, lags, very slow often times and Adobe not being interested in the product. And also when the lines of code are 1000 and above, it misbehaves or hangs. The Intellisense sometimes misstates the wrong syntaxes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AB Alexandro B. Auxiliaire d'enseignement Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 4/8/2016 "very good programming tool" 2/5 What do you like best about ColdFusion Builder? without being well known, Cold Fusion is an excellent tool for developing web applications. It is a scripting language, like ASP, but much simpler to use and learn, and tag-based structure is very familiar to people accustomed to HTML. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ColdFusion Builder? It is located on fewer servers. The only problem there is with this wonder is that even though some of the great use it is present in very few servers, because of cost it is much higher than php or ASP (both free) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering ColdFusion Builder: the latest version includes interesting features such as: Server Monitor, generation and interaction with documents and forms in PDF format, integration with .NET and Microsoft Exchange Server, including several very interesting to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ColdFusion Builder solving and how is that benefiting you? The principal advantage of ColdFusion is rapidly build large and complex web applications. As a result, we obtain a high increase in productivity of the company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MM Mitchell M. Application Engineer Primary/Secondary Education Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 12/12/2015 "Good but not great" 1.5/5 What do you like best about ColdFusion Builder? Very easy to pick up and start developing in. Coldfusion is built specifically for building web applications so there are many convenience functions built into the language itself. The framework CfWheels provides a Ruby on Rails like framework that is worth trying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ColdFusion Builder? Very easy to create unmaintainable code because of it's scripting origins. Objects were an afterthought and the cfscript (a new syntax that looks more like java) is missing functionality. There are a lot of weird things that Coldfusion does that are coldfusion specific and have a questionable design. For example, booleans when outputted on a page will display as "YES" or "NO" or that numbers are sometimes strings but not always. There is not a ton of community support and the support that does exist is mostly outdated. Because of the lack of community support there are not a lot of tools and libraries. Those that do exist are usually not updated and require tweaking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering ColdFusion Builder: Coldfusion is only a good language. With so many great languages and frameworks out there it would be a shame to use coldfusion unless necessary. It is lacking of a killer framework, although CfWheels is getting good, that just doesn't compare to something like RoR. Adobe doesn't seem to know what direction they are heading in and is trying to force object orientation on a scripting language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ColdFusion Builder solving and how is that benefiting you? Mostly used for building internal business applications that handle registrations and tracking organization information. It is good for quickly building web applications that are database heavy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
