Overall Satisfaction with Cursor

Cursor increased our development speed by at least 25%. We were already used to Visual Studio Code, so it was a smooth transition that made us save a lot of time by incorporating great LLM models inside the IDE. We were able to create incredible stuff in record time by using the Composer tool of the App Cursor, too.

Pros

  • state-of-art IDE
  • Best LLMs one click away
  • Code suggestions very easy to use

Cons

  • The composer tool can still get more accurate
  • More LLM models
  • automate the creation of folders and files in a project
  • Development speed increased at least 25%
  • The result of the final Product is better than before/without it
  • We use it as a standard now
Really easy to use; we've been replacing all other IDEs for it now. As it is a fork of Visual Studio Code, we transitioned to it in a very smooth way, and now our development process is faster than ever. It supports a bunch of languages and we don't need to have a webpage with an LLM open now because it is all with Cursor.
Cursor has built-in AI and is a fork based on Visual Studio Code. So the fact is, it is better than Visual Studio Code because of AI, and if you are a developer that uses more than notebooks, in my opinion, it surely beats Jupyter Notebook, too. It is my go-to for basically all programming languages now.

Do you think Cursor delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Cursor's feature set?

Yes

Did Cursor live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Cursor go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Cursor again?

Yes

We created a React.js website here in a few hours; the Composer tool just made us be able to create in record time by referecing some of the website pages and then asking for a new page with some different characteristics but the same design/layout. To be honest, we created much faster than we would using a no-code tool like WordPress.
