Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review I think that if someone asked me for an IDE for Java programming, I would definitely recommend Eclipse as is one of the most complete solutions for this language out there. If the main programming language of that person is not Java, I don't think Eclipse would suit his needs[.]
Read full review Pros 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. Read full review Eclipse organizes imports well and does a good job presenting different programming languages. Eclipse auto formats source code allowing customization and increased readability. Eclipse reports errors automatically to users rather than logging it to the console. Eclipse has coding shortcuts and auto-correction features allowing faster software development. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review While the DB integration is broad (many connectors) it isn't particularly deep. So if you need to do serious DB work on (for example) SQL Server, it is sometimes necessary to go directly to the SQL Server Studio. But for general access and manipulation, it is ok. The syntax formatting is sometimes painful to set up and doesn't always support things well. For example, it doesn't effectively support SCSS. Using it for remote debugging in a VM works pretty well, but it is difficult to set up and there is no documentation I could find to really explain how to do it. When remote debugging, the editor does not necessarily integrate the remote context. So, for example, things like Pylint don't always find the libraries in the VM and display spurious errors. The debugging console is not the default, and my choice is never remembered, so every time I restart my program, it's a dialog and several clicks to get it back. The debugging console has the same contextual problems with remote debugging that the editor does. Read full review Likelihood to Renew I love this product, what makes it one of the best tool out in the market is its ability to function with a wide range of languages. The online community support is superb, so you are never stuck on an issue. The customization is endless, you can keep adding plugins or jars for more functionalities as per your requirements. It's Free !!!
Read full review Usability 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.
Read full review It has everything that the developer needs to do the job. Few things that I have used in my day-to-day development 1. Console output. 2. Software flash functionality supporting multiple JTAG vendors like J-LINK. 3. Debugging capabilities like having a breakpoint, looking at the assembly, looking at the memory etc. this also applies to Embedded boards. 4. Plug-in like CMake, Doxygen and PlantUML are available.
Read full review Support Rating Customer support is managed by the Cloud support team. I won't be able to comment on details, but it's fast.
Read full review I gave this rating because Eclipse is an open-source free IDE therefore no support system is available as far as I know. I have to go through other sources to solve my problem which is very tough and annoying. So if you are using Eclipse then you are on your own, as a student, it is not a big issue for me but for developers it is a need.
Read full review Alternatives Considered [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.
Read full review The installation, adaptability, and ease of usage for Eclipse are pretty high and simple compared to some of the other products. Also, the fact that it is almost a plug and play once the connections are established and once a new user gets the hang of the system comes pretty handy.
Read full review Return on Investment 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. Read full review This development environment offers the possibility of improving the productivity time of work teams by supporting the integration of large architectures. It drives constant change and evolution in work teams thanks to its constant versioning. It works well enough to develop continuous server client integrations, based on solid or any other programming principle. Read full review ScreenShots
