Cursor Reviews & Product Details

Cursor, for the most part, can often be more helpful than the AI model that I'm using particularly for trouble shooting. As much as Auto might extend my usage, I prefer a single model for coding consistency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The constant updates that change the layout of my editor frames. I think that issue has been resolved, but at one point it was so annoying that I would avoid updates until I had to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Cursor helps me turn ideas into working applications much faster, saving time on coding, fixing bugs, creating new features, and improving workflows. It makes building SaaS possible even without a large development team and helps organize data efficiently. I appreciate its speed and accessibility, allowing me to generate code, fix bugs, explain errors, and improve existing features without being a full-time developer. The easy initial setup stood out, as Cursor quickly analyzed the codebase, detected errors, and provided improvement suggestions, making the experience smooth and enjoyable. The combination with other tools like Supabase, Vercel, Stripe, and Sentry makes development much faster, facilitating quick building, deployment, monitoring, and improvement of applications. Overall, Cursor significantly accelerates my workflow and reduces repetitive work, allowing me to move from ideas to working features much faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is reliability when working on larger or more complex projects. Sometimes generated changes affect parts of the app that were not intended, so more context awareness and safer edits would help. Better long-term project memory and understanding of the whole application structure would also make development smoother. I’d also like stronger support for planning architecture and keeping consistency across files as projects grow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like about the cursor that it understands the broader project context which helps me align the documentation with actual development changes instead of blindly creating the content. Cursor lets me validate the updates and maintain the consistency. Also, it stays in control of the final content. Works faster and creates longer content for the release changes. Cursor helps me compare the suggested changes and generated content with my existing content using the clear diff view, which makes it easy to review what has changed and decide what to keep before applying updates. What I like the most about cursor is that it is not just a developer editor but it really works well as a documentation content creation tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a technical writer, one thing I dislike about cursor is that it is still very developer-centric by design. It really works well for documentation, but many features and workflows are clearly optimized for developers' code. Diff view is helpful, but while reviewing larger documentation changes, it can still feel a bit heavy compared to other documentation tools. Sometimes it creates content like developer notes, and we have to provide commands to create customer-facing content each time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part is the interactive interface, with support for multiple LLM models and an agent mode that lets me hand off tasks directly to the LLM. I also really like being able to create workspaces with multiple repos, along with the integrations with various tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be honest, I don’t have anything major to complain about. That said, sometimes it takes a while to respond to queries and apply changes to files. It might be related to the context window, but I’ve noticed occasional performance slowdowns from time to time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cursor is a very powerful AI-assisted code editor that significantly speeds up development. The AI integration feels natural and is deeply embedded into the workflow, making it easy to generate code, refactor functions, or understand unfamiliar parts of a codebase. It’s especially useful for navigating large projects, where you can quickly ask questions about the code and get relevant context-aware answers.

The interface is clean and similar to Visual Studio Code, so onboarding is quick. Features like inline suggestions, chat-based assistance, and the ability to modify multiple files at once make it very efficient for day-to-day development. Overall, it helps reduce repetitive work and improves productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the AI features are very helpful, they are not always perfectly accurate and still require validation. For complex or critical logic, you need to carefully review the generated code. Performance can also vary depending on project size and usage. Additionally, relying heavily on AI suggestions may reduce deeper understanding if not used carefully.

The agentic workflow it enables, along with the clean UX/UI and the plugins they’ve added recently, is honestly a lifesaver. Having it in the cloud and watching it deliver a full end-to-end test demo is kind of insane.I use this as it's subagents and everything is just out of league for any other IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing is so absurd. I’m a pro user, and after just a few prompts my monthly quota is already gone. Given how much development I do, I have to be on auto for the whole month. I certainly love all the features it does have all the features than any agentic IDE of nowadays. Pricing should be transparent tho. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I mostly use Cursor for coding. It helps me with developing the architecture of new projects, handling day-to-day development tasks, making critical decisions, refactoring old codebases, and enhancing UI/UX interfaces easily. I really appreciate the live web inspector, plan mode, and the ability to run multiple agents in parallel. These features make me work faster on my projects and save time. I find that Cursor offers better LLM responses and handling of codebases, providing a better IDE for more quality work, and it operates faster. The initial setup was very easy.

Running terminal tasks in Windows using PowerShell needs improvement. It always gets stuck, and I have to stop the process. It would be better if this was running smoothly and fast as in macOS, thus making my work faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that I can have full control over the chat responses and output, which really helps me customize my experience. Adding a /continual-learning loop is fantastic as it makes a learning system that keeps improving by evaluating the process and optimizing for better, faster, and more effective results next time. Even though I don't know much about coding, Cursor allows me to request changes to GUI settings and logs them, which is super helpful. The fact that it took a while to get everything set up just right and now it works 90% of the time right away is a testament to its capabilities. As my first GPT-IDE, after a lot of work, Cursor has really helped me take off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I still have to battle a lot of assumptive thinking, where the model fills in nonsense or details that I didn't request, or sometimes decision making goes through some nonsense steps and wastes tokens. Also, it's taken well over a year to get to a point where I feel confident and comfortable that the model will get about 90% right the first time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a new way of programming. It helps when I need it but does not come pushy with proposing changes. The UI is old school, but I like it this way. I've been suing Visual Studio before I found them pretty similar. I was able to download my old setup so I did not need to configure it all over again. Performance is great - I get responses really fast. I like the Composer 2 (AI model) feedback on multiple files (to be able to comprehend the full project). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To be honest I did not find anything that I would not like. Composer 2 AI model is quite expensive but compared to Auto (which is usually Claude or OpenAI) it really shows the value. I did not need any help with the setup -as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cursor is the best agentic AI assistant for full-stack development. It handles back-end and front-end tasks, including n8n workflow optimization, with incredible ease.

Efficiency: Performance is so high that I no longer need a team of 2+ people.

Integration:Seamless workflow with VPS deployments and Supabase.

Features: The Browser mode is a killer feature for instantly identifying and fixing problems.

Value: Unbeatable pricing for the power it delivers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I work with n8n workflows (*.json scheme), the application sometimes crashes. Also, creating new flows with Cursor is tricky: I first have to create templates, then point it to what needs changing, and only after that does it work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
