It's free, robust and brings a bunch of services to the table so you can work with them while away from your desk. I've just met the new version of the IDE and I'm loving it.

I have been using DreamWeaver for years. Not the design view but the code view. I like Codenvy for many of the features that are similar to what I am used to. I like that I can click on an open or close tag in HTML and the related open/close tag is then highlighted so I can easily find the mismatched tags. Also, Codenvy highlights obvious errors and helps debug someone else's code. One of the coolest things though is the connection to git. My projects are easy to push and pull as needed to make them more accessible "anywhere". Not to mention that I can pick up where I left off by opening chrome on any machine.

FTP or SFTP is a must. Too many companies use cPanel for their hosting and cPanel and Git are not good friends yet. They are working on it, I hope, but they are not there yet so I need a way to upload changes without having to download them first. Also, if I'm trying to fix something that has been done wrong repeatedly on a page, it would be nice to have the "Find" feature remember what I looked for last. And where is "Find and Replace"?

- I personally like having my workspace in the cloud and accessible anywhere.

- GitHub integration is pretty cool. Ability to use git commands in the workspace +1.

- Pretty close to the user experience I have in my local IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- I prefer the dark UI to code. But some may prefer light UI.

- Lack of keyboard shortcuts.

- Better if we can have some more code generation options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the smoothness of the IDE and transitioning between the various files in a project. Additionally, transitioning from one project to another is smooth as well. I did not encounter any hiccups or slowness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

* Intelligent code completion is lacking (as far from my experience using Maven and Ruby)

* No apparent option for using a command line interface. Some projects like Ruby I find I can only progress if I can run commands. For instance using "gem" or "bundle" to handle the addition/removal of gems. This also prevents me from running my scripts for these projects to ensure they are working as intended.

* If I have a Git Submodule in my project, Codenvy clones the git project, but not the submodule, so I'm missing parts of my project.

* Lacking more recent versions of some technology like using Ruby 2.1. There's also no way to tell what version of Git is being used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program is versatile and works among many different platforms c++, Fortran, Python, etc. It also was a great addition to my chrome book, considering that the types of applications compatible with the chrome is very limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had problems executing simple c++ programs that I developed in my intro to programming class. I'm not sure why, considering that the programs would run fine on visual studio but not on codenvy. This is frustrating since I am not able to practice writing the c++ assignments on my laptop. This means that I will have to either work in the computer lab or at my home computer vs. being able to write c++ programs on the go. I hope this gets resolved soon since I would like to be able to practice writing c++ programs on my chrome book laptop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The developers have done a very high quality product. It contains a lot of interesting solutions. Such as code refactoring, multi mode and invitations. And if you have an account in Google, the registration may take a few minutes. But if you do not wish to use a Google account, the registration of this does not become complicated, and will remain the same simple. Codenvy supports a large number of languages ​​- Java, Java Script, PHP, Python, Ruby, HTML, and CSS. And their number is constantly increasing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice if there was support for the Russian language so the Russian-speaking community could use the service without problems. And I think you need to add more languages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
