"Easy to learn and use- great for beginners for IoT prototyping."
What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE is a great tool for both beginners and professionals. I’ve used it in real-time projects to connect and test sensors and microcontrollers. The platform is very user-friendly, and the coding environment is simple to understand. Uploading code and interacting with components like IR, ultrasonic sensors, and servos is smooth and reliable. I would definitely recommend Arduino for learning, prototyping, and testing IoT solutions for implementing IoT projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

One issue I faced was with adding external tools when testing with some microcontrollers. A few tools or boards show as unavailable in the IDE, and it takes time to set them up manually or find alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Arduino IDE facilitates my learning and prototyping in IoT projects"
What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

From the beginning, I was surprised at how simple their programming language is. The code structure is easy to understand, even for those who don't have much prior experience. The IDE also offers wide compatibility with different microcontrollers, allowing for exploration of a variety of platforms and undertaking diversified projects. Additionally, it is excellent for debugging projects by displaying programming errors directly, which facilitates immediate correction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Although the interface seems simple and easy to use, I have noticed that it consumes a significant amount of memory on my computer, especially when I use other applications simultaneously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple tool for IoT Programming"
What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

First of all, the Arduino IDE is open source IDE software which makes it free to use. It can be used to code for programming Microcontrollers etc in all three popularly used operating systems like Windows, MacOS as well as Linux. The most amazing thing about Arduino is it is so easy to learn, code and make projects even for beginners. In case any user faces difficulties, there is a large community of people who are active in this domain and can help others in solving their problems. Other than that there are many articles, blogs and Youtube tutorials that live on the internet, so people can take inspiration, solve their problems and learn about programming for microcontroller boards and make projects.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

There is only one thing that I feel could be a great addition in the Arduino IDE and that is the code editor itself does not have auto-suggest features and syntax highlighting, which is a standard in various code editors. So, if these features are added in the Arduino IDE, it will surely improve the users experience and save a lot of time for people who code in the Arduino IDE.

"Development Environment for electronic projects"
What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE is cross platform supported and can be used on MacOS and Windows also. Ease of integration of different types of libraries can be possible and can be used for adding extra features to electronic projects such as Bluetooth and WiFi. It also used to dump code on Arduino Boards and ESP boards also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Implementation of code on boards other than Arduino is not possible using this platform. Only Arduino boardsand Arduino compatible boards are supported by this IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best tool to program arduino boards"
What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE works with all Arduino manufactured mother boards and supports large number of libraries. It is easy to integrate code and implement it on Arduino supported boards by using this IDE. It also has serial monitor feature which shows real time data from connected devices. It will be used frequently by students and hobbyists. Support is provided inform of informative blog to clear any doubts regarding usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE has all features such as editor, debugger and compiler. But the dumping of code to mother boards sometimes fails even devices used are supported. Implementation on some boards are difficult since some of boards supports different type of USB cables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Used for programming of microcontrollers"
What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE is used to create, compile, upload code to Arduino supported microcontroller boards. Easy to integrate libraries on developed programs from predefined library lists. Very easy to implement code on Arduino boards using this IDE by connecting board to computer with a data cable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Customer support is only provided in the form of blogs on Arduino website. No other way of support is provided. Arduino IDE need to be updated on computer inorder to upload code to boards without any error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
