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 PhpStorm is well suited for any project that utilizes PHP. I have used it on Windows, Ubuntu, and Mac OS and it works great on all those platforms. Having a solution that keeps the developer from having to constantly switch tools to do their job is invaluable. Whether you're a junior developer, front end engineer or a senior developer, PhpStorm is a great product that will help you get your work done.
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 Database browsing, Remote host browsing, and all the deep seated customizations for both the UI and Technical feasability are the result of an amazing integrity and compatibility with most components and technologies. The built-in shell is insanely helpful for traversing code in order to debug scripts with ease, and the plug-in system makes this software quite extensible. Not to mention the variety of options and settings (divided into global settings and per-project settings) are both intuitive & easy to use, especially the fact that I can export and import them across my workstations while maintaining my spacing & indentation, highlighting, inspection patterns and syntax styling. 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 There is a bug sometimes, when you pull that the directory structure it forgets all the folders It's not free When I copy paste the default is to not keep the same spacing/tab pattern of the original, which I'm not a fan of 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 The UI is very easy to understand. From common to less common, with the search feature, you can find anything you are looking for within the software. For me, that makes it tremendously easy to use.
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 The JetBrains community is all about helping others succeed, even in the most obscure setups. I have never had a question go unanswered, or I have never been able to come up with empty results in searching for the answer. My questions or concerns are typically address from other users in the community, so timing is pretty quick for a response
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 Two things were decisive for choosing PhpStorm, and the first was the Education version since we were a university we were able to license for free, and the other was that we just had to use a single tool to develop our activities (coding, versioning), and operations in the DB). Another point was that the application is cross-platform.
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 PhpStorm decreased the time to market of new features - we are following the Agile SCRUM methodology with 2 weeks sprints. Using PhpStorm helped with releasing UI features even faster than 2 weeks. Considering the price of the license and the cost of the server where we run it, the ROI is still high due to less time spent by developers with writing code, debugging, refactoring etc. Especially when you have highly paid developers. Increased people's happiness - by using a modern tool with lots of features which has made their work easier. Read full review ScreenShots
