"My hands on experience on Codenvy- a collaborative coding environment"
5/5
What do you like best about Codenvy?

Being a software developer I often have to work with teams and while working with teams, the biggest problem that I face is a collaborative environment. Everyone is working on their own PC so there is no engagement between team members and due to which the efficiency of the project decreases. But here comes Codenvy, a cloud-based IDE which doesn't even require you to install anything extra, all you require is a browser and that's it. Here are some of the best features of Codenvy in my opinion: Collaborative Environment: Multiple developers can work on the same project at the same time. Containerized Workspaces: It utilizes Docker containers to encapsulate the development environments, and thus it enables you to have consistency in the local, staging, and production environments. Being a Docker user I find Codenvy to be the best place to implement my knowledge. Supports all programming languages: It supports a range of programming languages and frameworks and provides integration with tools like Git, CI/CD pipelines among others. Scalability: It can work with teams of all sizes, starting from an individual to large enterprises. I have worked on various projects on this along with my team and each one of us is highly satisfied with the work outputs. Easy to use Interface: The best point of Codenvy is that it's beginner-friendly, only a few steps and you are ready to start your development journey. Lastly, this is cloud-based so there is no need to worry about storing data on local storage, everything is stored on the cloud and can be accessed from any part of the world.

What do you dislike about Codenvy?

There aren't a lot of things that I dislike about Codenvy but still there are some areas that need some improvements like - Lagness - While working on some heavy projects I faced some issues like slow execution/compiling of code and even sometimes the page would get "not responding" error. Lot of things to learn - Since it's a cloud-based environment so for people who have been working their whole life by storing data on local storage, they have to learn a lot about cloud and therefore their usage. Although this is not a problem but still I had to face while working with an elder age group person. Pricing - Although it's free for up to 3 users but while working on larger projects or more complex use cases may require a paid subscription. The cost can add up, especially when scaling across multiple team members. This is all about my experience with Codenvy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
