"Best text editor I've ever used."

5/5

What do you like best about UltraEdit?

I like the simplicity of the basic interface, with the power of being able to customize macros and perform redundant tasks automatically with one keyboard click.

I can edit HUGE files and perform complex manipulation that saves me hours and hours of work. The backup on save feature has saved my butt several times when I'm using it for code when I've made a mistake, allowing me to backtrack several steps.

tl;dr Get this product.

Their customer support is just incredible. They're always responsive and friendly. In the years I've used it, I've only stumped them once or twice with extremely complex problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

I don't like the new ribbon interface that comes with the newest versions. But I've always hated all ribbon interfaces. The Find and Replace interface is a bit clunky and requires some tweaking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Currently I use it for programming and also for data file massaging to get things into databases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
