I've tried several AI programming assistants, but most of them work in almost the same way—except for Cody. Cody stands out by allowing you to keep your codebase context at hand, enabling you to ask questions and request help to solve problems. Cody can suggest changes or improvements to different files and their dependencies. You can also easily test and compare results from various models and reference files or specific parts of files with ease. I highly recommend Cody. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes I feel the outputs get weird and not doing what I want. I don't know if it is Cody or the AI provider Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Option to use multiple LLMs for a fair price but to be fair only using Claude Sonnet 3.5 since Anthropic's IDE integration is non-existent. Works excellent with VSCode. Has shortened my delivery times by a lot, it's become a thing that's I'm using daily on almost every task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

On Intellij it'll always freeze upon restaring work after MacOS has gone to sleep and entire IDE needs to be restarted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being able to give a concise question and to hand context over to Cody so that it can diagnose issues has been immeasurably helpful in getting projects off of the ground without having to constantly reach towards documentation or Stack Overflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't come across any downsides yet! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- interactive development

- discuss development design decisions

- solve technical problems that arise Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- has issues with newlines after applying patches (really annoying)

- sometimes gets stuck and doesn't apply patches

- clunky UI

- older chats are saved but not easily accessible and not clear to which project they belong. Have to go through the chat instead of naming the chat

- often keeps older versions of source files in cache and then the diff erases newer code that the AI doesn't know about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It seems to be the best solution for understanding and incorporating context into suggestions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In the early days, my first experience with Cody was awesome. Then it started to become inconsistent, then it became unsupported in my IDE, now eventually it's awesome again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cody is a great code assistant AI, which has improved my coding process significantly and helped me to be a good coder. For someone like me who does not have an appropriate coding background, but has a keen interest in learning coding, Cody comes in handy for me. It not only enables me to write code but also enhances my learning. It has saved me hours of debugging and research by finding flaws and making suggestions. Furthermore, Cody's ability to interact with my IDE has made my life so easy and simple, and I will highly recommend Cody to someone, who always wanted to code like a pro, but hesitated to think where to start.

Like every new AI technology, I believe Cody will also evolve with time. Currently, the flaws are mainly on JetBrains plugins, which can benefit from contextual awareness. Sometimes, Cody offers not-so-relevant suggestions other than the VS Code integration, but again it is expected out of an LLM model in its current generation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It offers a number of different models including Claude Sonnet 3.5 (my favorite current coding LLM).

There is a Cody extension for Visual Studio Code that is very easy to use right in my codebase.

My favorite use cases are automatically adding logging and error handling, getting help debugging code, and creating code documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cody can sometimes forget it has access to the entire code respository and has to be reminded. It is very easy to provide additional context and regenerate a response, though, so this is a minor issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can switch models easily, and the Apply feature was a game changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes I can't copy until the text finishes. Sometimes I can't cancel the text easily. If I enter a new message before the old one finishes, I get an error, it would be nice to have it handle this gracefully. I can't stop the text sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cody is huge game changer buz he has access into whole repository. Thanks for that he knows the context throw multiple components, file, libs. I was looking for someting like this pretty long time and thanks to cody my development is more then 50% faster. I can fastly fix bugs and optimize my code from dry to clean, moder and faster syntax.

Currently I did not find any negative thinks, really... Maybe that sometimes that cody give me some changes and I wanna apply them authomaticly it take more time.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Even for free, it keeps histories, has memory, contexts, quick response, and is friendlier than ChatGPT itself. Thanks Cody! Thanks Claude! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, I'm in love with Cody AI! For now, perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
