Code Compare Reviews & Product Details

Devart Code Compare is a smart and flexible tool that provides you with the easiest possible way of comparing and merging source code, files, and folders. Now you can install and integrate it with Visual Studio 2022 and experience all of its capabilities right there! Key features of Code Compare 1. File comparison. First and foremost, you can use Code Compare to find differences between any blocks of text. The comparison window is divided into two panes—source and target—and the differences are shown with convenient highlighting. 2. Source code comparison. As for your source code, it can be compared just as effectively. In this respect, Code Compare supports lexical comparison of code in major programming languages, including C#, C++, Visual Basic, JavaScript, Java, and XML. You get syntax highlighting, matching of similar lines, and code outlining for collapsing and expanding regions of code. 3. Folder comparison. Besides blocks of text/code and files, Code Compare allows comparing and merging entire folders. Here, you get color coding for added, deleted, and modified files, filtering options for excluding or including certain file types, quick opening of individual files, and batch copying of files to another pane or to a selected folder. 4. Version control integration We’ve saved the best for last. Code Compare helps you merge files and resolve conflicts in a variety of version control systems that support external comparison tools, including Git, Mercurial, Perforce, TFS, and a few others. It has also never been easier to quickly resolve conflicts using tools like Sourcetree.

What do you like best about Code Compare?

Best thing is it's easy to use and easily integrated with your repository like git, and shows the difference of your code while merging. It's is added advantage of IDE like visual studio and it's separately downloaded so it doesn't make your IDE heavy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code Compare?

It's just a added advantage of an IDE nothing much to complain about, though I would like a black theme like visual studio and little added advantage of debugging on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for software developers"

"This tool is a Boone to developers."

4/5

What do you like best about Code Compare?

We work in a large team, and documenting every change in the code is not always possible. "Code compare" is of great help. We are comparing the prior version of the code with the current version so quickly. It makes it very easy for us to observe the changes to the code with color highlighting quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Code Compare?

I can't think of any cons at the moment. The software has pretty much all it needs. However, it would be good if there was a way to auto-intend YAML files. Not sure if plugins are already available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
