Codeanywhere Reviews & Product Details

I can access my resources from anywhere with an internet connection. The editor itself is very intuitive and well-designed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing! It's a great service and I plan to continue my subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are indeed other online IDEs, but I love that I can spin up an environment exactly to my specifications with CodeAnywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's have been times when I've had a hard time figuring out how to set things up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The recent updates to the backend editor were quite nice.... I've been waiting for years to have them support copy/paste in the ssh terminal. So that's a plus. You can use any vs code extension now.. and the containers serve pretty fast sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support is slow and always has been. I've been waiting for 2 weeks now for a fix on an issue and that's not an atypical wait time based on my other attempts at contacting support. Plus, they have an automatic support desk that attempts to close issues after not hearing from you for 48 hours. That would be acceptable if they were waiting on a response from me, but it's always the other way around so it feels kinda insulting to get these automatic messages.

I love being able to select any file via a lot of remote connection options, make adjustments to the HTML, CSS, JS or PHP, save, and see it active immediately. It's a simple enough process, but it makes all the difference. The price has also always been very reasonable, and I've used it for both personal and professional projects.

Since the recent redesign and the addition of containers, I've found it a little bit more confusing. I generally have only used it for light-duty purposes. Before I my only greivence was that I had to spin up a container to compile SASS. Now it's all containers and I'm unclear on if I still have to do the Grunt install, etc. If you're looking for a simpler IDE that preprocesses CodeTasty (despite the awful name) does a good job. Their interface is counter-intuitive, but functional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact I can edit my code from any device is brilliant. Sometimes when I'm not in front of my computer and a client needs an urgent change, I can use the app to make edits. The beautify function for CSS is awesome and helps to keep code nice and clean. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limits on FTP Connections are a little frustrating. It would be great if we were able to pay per connection or in groups of 10 connections, rather than having to go up to the next plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The feature I liked was, what is now called, the Legacy Codeanywhere IDE. The Legacy IDE offers you the capability to connect to a host to work on code and access tunnels.

They are pivoting to a container-based environment workspace using VSCode as a core building block of the UI where you can still able to access connections configured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does have an issue every once in a while where the page won't load and you have to clear the browser cache. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using the legacy IDE for a couple of years. It does everything I need and nothing I don't. It's the speediest way to have a portable dev environment for a traditional php app where I access the server via ftp. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The emphasis on the new container system is not something I need or understand-- I would like to be able to set my account to go right to the legacy IDE when I sign in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can log in and access your codebase also when you are not using your own device. I travel a lot, and most of the time I can't bring my laptop with me, or I use someone else computer, and with Codeanywhere I can work on my code with no hassle. I just access the platform and work on my FTP or git codebases Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. Everything runs as it should, and prices are affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, Cheap, Powerful environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Getting inside IDE, now is more difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that you can edit files directly on a server and see the changes in real-time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish it were easier to get to the legacy editor as it is the version I vastly prefer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
