The ability to integrate code directly into my files when I prompt in chat, and to get a code review as well, really helps me. It lets me review the code myself instead of completely depending on AI to change my code and then having to look for the changes afterward. The UI is clean and structured and the agents like stripe and temporal helps with the context when I'm integrating 3rd party APIs or SDKs Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tokens, compare to other dedicated models the tokens in cursor is getting used a lot and all the best models like opus will hit the limit pretty fast Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

being able to run multiple agents at the same time saves hours of work and money. mass file generation makes mundane programs better by allowing more time to focus on program purpose. never had to deal with customer support. integration into program dev made easy.

AI still struggles to tell when it should switch from ask to agent or plan modes. Circular reasoning and drift remain a big problem. The AI should be able to ask other AIs for peer review before giving answers to users. Also, the rules should be understood from near the beginning—for example, obeying tech manuals and industry standards when appropriate. multiple servers should be able to be worked on at the same time from the same agent window Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

İ really like Cursor's quota because, thanks to its own models and the agreements it has made with xai, the models hardly use up my plan's quota. i'm pleased with how well it uses the agent tools. i like the composer 2.5 model because it's really great and very affordable. it offers me a lot of productivity on a budget of around $20. i think the single monthly quota system is great.

I find the chat history reappearing annoying even after I've deleted them, and I think the code editor optimization is poor, it's even terrible. I constantly deal with deleting chats for no reason, and it slows down significantly when opening long folders, unlike Visual Studio Code which is really fast.

I’m able to accomplish tasks of varying complexity and still get excellent results. Most of my interactions with the agent are through the auto feature. I also use the Plan feature quite a bit, since it lets me steer the implementation before I kick it off. Beyond general product features and bug fixes, I’ve also had good luck using the agent to navigate ops work. Overall, it’s streamlined our ability to ship quality releases.

I haven't fully embraced the Agents view and tend to stick to the standard IDE view. This is primarily due to needing visibility to make corrections in the codebase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Cursor for my daily work, and it’s a great tool for coding and product development. It supports many AI models, and the plan mode is amazing—it plans everything, and we can integrate pretty much everything. Around 90% of my code is written by Cursor, and it helps me build products quickly.

That said, the $20 plan drains quickly for APIs. In the beginning it felt good for $20 because it seemed like real unlimited usage was provided, but now it’s limited. Still, for using it with auto mode, it’s great. For complex tasks, we definitely need to use some good models from Claude.

Since it’s based on VS Code, the transition from VS Code is very smooth. Performance-wise, it works well if you have a good system; otherwise it can take too much memory and start to lag. On my MacBook Pro M2 it works well, but on my other MacBook Air M1 it can get laggy if I keep agents running and have two or more projects open.

Support has been good too. Once I needed to cancel my subscription, and they helped me with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The usage limit gets drained quickly for APIs, and for auto they’ve made it limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It understand your whole codebase context and builds things, even if the project was not started on cursor. Its autocomplete is really amazing sometimes I think it is reading my mind. The UI has 2 modes for non-technical and full-technical people, so if you are a total vibe coder you can use it too and its also usable for a senior SE. It integrates with all of your day to day coding related services through MCPs and plugins and handles them as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the models does not understand the codebase structure or design patterns. I have noticed multiple times it makes design decisions that does not make sense or be consistant with the rest of the codebase.

The pricing can be sometimes tricky. They have monthly packages but sometimes we go above the limits. Once we go above the limits we dont have a clear picture of how much of money is burnt, and sometimes ending up getting bills over 200 USD per month per account!! We only signed up for $20 plan and enabled auto recharge lol!

It takes a ton of memory and sometimes go unresponsive when I have some other apps open. At those points It becomes laggy and unresponsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Cursor is how naturally it integrates AI into the development workflow without getting in the way. The codebase awareness is impressive — it understands project structure, existing patterns, and context across files, which makes refactoring, debugging, and feature implementation much faster.

One thing I dislike about Cursor is that AI suggestions can sometimes become inconsistent in larger or long-running projects. Occasionally it loses context between files or introduces changes that don’t fully match the existing architecture, so generated code still needs careful review.

Probably the coolest, best, and most satisfying software I have used my entire life. When I first started using Cursor, I felt young again, full of optimism, curiosity and a willingness to learn more. Without a doubt, my highest recommendation. This is my first-ever review on G2 and I couldn't be more pleased than to offer my first review for Cursor with a 10/10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I give a 10/10 without any dislikes about Cursor. It is simply that good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Cursor is its IDE integration and lightweight performance. It has a better system design and is faster in creating UI designs. The inline text edit feature is also great because it allows me to make changes efficiently, like converting blocks of code into async functions or adding error handling without rewriting everything. This feature lets me quickly generate components compared to other software. The integration with my editor reduces the need for context switching between tabs, which really smooths out my coding sessions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was good back in 02/1424, but right now in 2026, it has bad usage limits and poor model reasoning. Also, it has bad ROI as I'm spending my money and not getting the ROI I should. Considering a cloud code or OLEX subscription is much better than this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Cursor's AI code generation because it automatically generates all the code for me, including complete functions, classes, and entire files without me having to type everything manually. It understands my project structure, which is top-notch. The detailed step-by-step instructions for setting up development and production environments save a lot of manual steps, especially for junior developers. It has significantly reduced the time for MVP creation from weeks to days and eliminated the need to write boilerplate code manually. Cursor is also great for generating 70-80% of the MVP code without manual typing, handling tasks like database schema, API endpoints, and authentication. This has saved us about twenty to thirty hours per week per person on routine coding tasks. Cursor generated the entire project structure, including database connections, API routes, and frontend components, in just one session. It makes our jobs easier by providing clear instructions on installing databases, APIs, and dependencies, significantly reducing the learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Cursor is excellent, there are some areas that could be improved. The AI becomes less helpful for fine-tuning complex customizations. It generates great initial code but struggles with advanced features, making more errors. Its performance can be inconsistent, sometimes perfect, other times producing broken or insufficient results. This inconsistency makes it unreliable for critical production issues. Additionally, Cursor needs to improve context retention to avoid breaking what’s already built, as it often makes errors that need constant context clarification to prevent mistakes. It still requires human oversight and assistance for debugging. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
