"Great alternative for advanced text editors"

4/5

What do you like best about UltraEdit?

It is a very advanced application that has a large number of options that make UltraEdit a highly customizable editor in all its aspects. It allows to open different files in the same application by means of a tab, which is very useful if we have a dual monitor configuration because we can have a tab on the screen and thus accelerate our efficiency.

It is also very useful to search using regular expressions not only in the file that is currently open but in all the files of the directory that we decide.

In summary:

- Multi-platform support for Windows, Linux and MacOS, although I've only tried it on Windows and Linux, I think they work the same.

- It has simple autocompletion, that is, it does not detect the programming language but it is based on the text already written in the document.

- I am amazed how he handles large files without presenting any type of slowdown. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

Although it is possible to choose between different themes for the interface and the text, by default it is not very nice, especially in the theme of fonts that do not look good as if they did not have anti-aliasing applied so they look somewhat pixelated on their edges .

Recommendations to others considering UltraEdit:

Try to try several editors before deciding, for example ultraedit has several versions depending on whether you buy the license or not. I recommend you try the normal version first of all because this version already has everything necessary in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is UltraEdit solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was looking for an application that I could use in different operating systems because in the work I use Windows while at home I use Linux and I do not like the idea of using two different editors in each place, with UltraEdit I can use the same editor anywhere. In addition this editor is very complete and especially useful to search over text files by means of regular expressions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
