What do you like best about UltraEdit?

UltrEdit allows me to work quickly and has many features. Very good for eidting text on multiple lines at the same time. Great for dealing with large files. Some colleagues use for coding and sFTP connections as well. Updates are useful and relatively frequent and include new features often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

Pricing and terms of licensing is a little much for individuals, but definetly justified for a company to purchase for it's users and add to their productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about UltraEdit?

I like the split screen option (2 or more files open side by side).

The wealth of features and options and all the ways the editor can be customized is great.

Handling extremely large files is amazingly fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

I tried to use the "projects" features a few times, but I could never quite understand how to use it. I guess it can't be too hard once I really try to discover how it works if I ever feel the need to do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about UltraEdit?

UltraEdit deftly handles different character encoding and line endings from files across platforms. The syntax highlighting is excellent, and supports all the different programming languages I use at work. Column editing mode, and multiple cursor mode, are unique and powerful ways to edit blocky code. Packed with convenience features I frequently use, such as convert selection to uppercase or lowercase, and display character properties. Another awesome feature is fine / replace in files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

UltraEdit takes about 2 to 3 seconds to load after launch. Not bad, though I wish it was faster. Also, occassionally it will not open, and I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and find it in my task manager to end an invisible instance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Irreplaceable!"
5/5
What do you like best about UltraEdit?

Over fifteen years ago, when I was just starting my career, I found out about UltraEdit. I had been looking for something that easily functioned in Column Mode. It does, and it has so many other features I have been relying upon for fifteen years. I purchased an unlimited license (it hurt early on) and I still don't regret it. Also, it blows away all the other Mac text editors out there (I know because I tried them before UE was on a Mac). It's one of the pieces of software that I have to have for work and play. And it's been functioning consistently for me (if not improving) the entire time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

I really can't think of something I dislike about UltraEdit...it's just so reliable and customizable I don't think I've ever crashed it (maybe user error by opening too many files). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
