AWS Cloud9 vs. CLion

When I am working with a large team of developers. Also, when a security policy, you are not allowed to install any app on your laptop. Cloud 9 is well integrated with Cloud commit. So we don't have to spend time in configurations.

It's a great fit if you’re looking for a user-friendly C++ IDE; comfortable with using Vim; looking for a fast, intuitive UI; or teaching your students C/C++. It wouldn’t be a good fit if you’re more comfortable with command-line based IDEs or planning to code in multiple languages, as it only supports C and C++.

• It provides an extremely intuitive and easy-to-use interface, so adapting to it does not take much time.
• It contains the most common programming languages.
• It allows the export of files, either directly to the repository or to the team where you want it.
• It is housed in the cloud so you can work with it from anywhere.
• Allows you to share code or work on them with others in real-time.
• Does not require installation.

• Software development
• IDE

• Confusing documentation - AWS's documentation remains quite confusing, and the layout of other services/settings that you have to use with Cloud9 can be a bit of a handful.
• Sometimes slow - As the size of a project increases, the editor gets increasingly slower, and starts slowing down the browser overall.
• Long setup process - The setup for Cloud9 can be hard and tough, especially since the documentation is quite hard to understand.

• JetBrains, the company that created and maintains CLion, is located primarily in Russia. While that doesn't concern me it does create worries for some people.
• No real cons. The product is great and the support is equally excellent.

It has the features that I need for my coding

The interface for Cloud9 needs some improvement. It is simply not as powerful and intelligent as a local text editor would be and thus it lacks the capabilities of fast filling when coding. Otherwise, I think it has a fair interface that they have tried mimicking an IDE.

CLion does everything I ask it to do. For me, Unreal Engine 4 compatibility was essential and Epic Game and JetBrains delivered a solid alternative to spending a huge amount of money on the "standard" IDE for game development on Windows. The user interface is sharp and modern without all of the silly frills many software suites now employ. It integrates well with source control systems we use and also works well, as expected, with other JetBrains development tools and assistants.

Customer support is managed by the Cloud support team. I won't be able to comment on details, but it's fast.

I am giving it a 9 out of 10 because I did not even need official support from the CLion team but rather, every time I came across a problem, I have been able to solve it within the community itself. This is so precious that you don't even need the help of the program's development/support team. There's a huge community of users that backs you up.

[AWS] Cloud9 offers specific features not available in the competition: Code collaboration using the chat features is the highlight which sets it apart. [The] code completion feature makes [it] very similar to the offline IDE like eclipse. It's much easier to use compared to Codeanywhere. It provides terminal access to EC2 instances and hence other amazon services.

First thing it has better UI. When it comes to usability CLion is the best

• We save time since we do not need to configure files or our equipment.
• We have the most appropriate tools for software development in one place.
• We can work from anywhere so if that day we could not get to our office or something we can do from home.
• We can code with a single browser.

• CLion helped us to speed up our development.
• Version control support reduced many problems like merge conflicts.
