What do you like best about GoLand?

It's able to "merge" informations from multiple data sources to provide an exhaustive coding experience. From databases\ticketing systems etc. Also team collaboration is made easy even without the additional services like Space or YouTrack Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoLand?

Can feel overwhelming at first but the documentation is very well written, I might have missed a hint but I "accidentally" discovered the guides. It would be nice be redirected there sooner, the in-software tooltips do help occasionally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best IDE for GO Language"
4.5/5
What do you like best about GoLand?

Goland is best IDE for go . Debugging is very simple in this IDE. Debugging in this helps a lot. You can make breakpoints and debug them one by one line. It provides a lot of features that will make your life easy as a Golang developer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoLand?

IDE size is big. Sometimes if your laptop RAM is not good. And you open multiple applications GOLand can not work properly. Except for this everything is great in this application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible IDE to develop Go applications"
4.5/5
What do you like best about GoLand?

The debugger has everything expected from other languages and IDEs: breakpoint, variable editing, inspection, etc., and also goes beyond that by showing the variable values as comments directly in the source code when one is debugging line by line.

The code refactoring is more advanced than VS Code as it infers correctly the context of the code that is changing, thus avoiding making changes on source code with the same name but unrelated. Their integration with Docker is also pretty good as it can launch and debug an application inside a custom-made container.

Another pro compared to VS Code; is that it offers integration with other languages. For example, one can open a database connection on the IDE and it will provide validation and code completion on SQL strings using the metadata from the database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoLand?

Their IDE is heavy on resources compared to VS Code, and it can be slow if one is still using a legacy HDD or doesn't have enough RAM. Sometimes the IDE became unresponsive and this only went away once we got upgraded workstations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"IntelliJ IDEA but for Golang"
4/5
What do you like best about GoLand?

The ability to quickly adopt to GoLand and the speed of adoption is what I liked best, and it's a zero step process if you are already familiar or have worked with any other Jetbrains IDE. The following things were uniquely impressive from GoLand

* It is has deep code jump & code traversing abilities allowing users to explore internal libraries

* The IDE code autocompletion is idiomatic to the GoLang language, whereas alternatives don't support this

* It maintains the Jetbrains IDE ecosystem nuances even for a radically different programming like Golang Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoLand?

The IDE does not provide Golang specific assistance in certain rare scenarios, for example it doesn't warn when there is a cyclic import which is not allowed in Golang Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Go Language IDE"
5/5
What do you like best about GoLand?

GoLand is, hands down, the best development environment to learn the Go programming language and develop actual software with. Go is different than other popular high level languages, and GoLand helps new developers get over the initial hurdles quickly and start developing good software. It has exceptional intelli-sense capabilities as well as a good number of useful code snippets to speed up coding of recurring code such as looping through the elements of a slice. The integrated debugger is fantastic, and really helps with debugging Goroutines.

Another interesting feature is Go projects are folder based, and buy creating multiple subfolders from your main project folder you actually manage multiple Go projects in a single GoLand projects. You have access to the Go command line tool from the IDE so can build and install all your projects right from the IDE.

Like other JetBrains IDEs, GoLand comes with a set of educational projects that help you learn the best ways to use the IDE. It has excellent integration with Git, and this is important because Git is the actually the package manager for the Go language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoLand?

When it comes to Go development there is nothing that I dislike. The only quibble I have with JetBrains products is the amount of disk space they use for caching. Unlike some of the other JetBrains tools, GoLand does not have a community edition and only comes with a 30 day free trial period. 30 days is not a lot of time to decide if you like a product when you are first learning a language. Also, GoLand is feature rich IDE and as such it is complex and can be difficult to get started in, fortunately they provide some adequate user tutorials to get you started.

"so nice"
4/5
What do you like best about GoLand?

It is the best idea that I have tried to program in GO, it has many plugins, and it is simple to configure, it is very robust, and does not consume as many machine resources as one would think Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GoLand?

Something I don't like is that it works only for programming in GO, so if you have to work with other languages, ​​you will need other IDEs, but you can use IntelliJ IDEA from the same developer to work with multiple languages Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
