"FAST AND EFFECTIVE IDE"
What do you like best about Monodevelop?

The code adjusts correctly and the vehicle's indentations when writing the NET software capabilities in C# and debugging it, but the usual experience was not terrible, which is top-notch for developing the GTK+ user interface in C#. Beautiful user interface and a lot of features including full debugging and deployment. Integrated with the unit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Monodevelop?

Net framework The installation of larger recent versions was terrible. There were additional problems when working with ASP. I have no issues that I dislike. Approximately this development application. Analyze after which proceed with the device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Decent IDE for Cross Plat form .Net or Mono Development"
What do you like best about Monodevelop?

-Cross Plat form

-Converting Visual Studio solution and projects easily

-Interchangeable codes for mono and .Net and thus build, run and executable in Windows, Linus and Mac almost seamlessly

-Complete free and thus great for prototyping, college lab and hands-on experience Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Monodevelop?

-Often unpredictable behavior. Sometimes code executes very differently in Mono and .Net environment which is not documented anywhere.

-Lack super-standard documentation and support like MSDN

-Not so great for Enterprise wide applications

-No msi or exe installer package of the latest version (V7.6) is available for Windows. This is very strange Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"IDE with many features but a bit limited."
What do you like best about Monodevelop?

IDE with traditional features like code formatting, automatic code completion are all its built-in features. It is open source which helps with in-depth coding. It has a gtk GUI designer, that is, stetic, which is ideal for developing the GTK+ user interface in C#. It supports many languages like C#, Java, C, Visual Basic .NET, and many more. I used C# in Monodevelop IDE, which is the best with it. And best of all, while developing games in Unity, software coding with C# can be done in Monodevelop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Monodevelop?

The user interface is a bit difficult to adjust to as a beginner, which requires some time to learn and then move forward with the tool. Sometimes hanging that is too rare. But this is the best for game developers as it is well integrated into the unit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's amazing monodevelop"
What do you like best about Monodevelop?

It is free when downloaded and used. It works on Linux and Windows, integrating very well with Unity. I developed C# and it was an excellent enjoyment in fashion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Monodevelop?

It still needs a couple of finishing touches, but without a doubt, Monodevelop is outpacing Visual Studio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"FAST AND EFFECTIVE IDE"
What do you like best about Monodevelop?

It is a lightweight platform that works on both Linux and Windows, which is great when not everyone is on the same operating system. The best thing for me is the simplicity of its design and the fact that it is super easy to link it with Unity. I coded only in C# with it and it was a good experience overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Monodevelop?

Now that Visual Studio Code is already available, it is very difficult for this type of IDE to remain truly attractive. So I would say that the lack of features. Even if the integration with Unity is easy and all, there are still some issues and bugs with it and this could be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Program with ease!"
What do you like best about Monodevelop?

I like the user interface the best as it is not very confusing and is quite easy to understand as well as use. Moreover the visual aspect of the interface where you can see your project is also very nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Monodevelop?

Perhaps the fact that the general layout of the workstation is a little simple and doesn't offer that many customisation options. However, it is still fairly customisable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
