Overall Satisfaction with UltraEdit

Multiple users within our organization use UltraEdit. It is a great multi-purpose text editor. Use it for simple tasks, like editing large text files, or use the code formatting to edit every language you can think of. Excellent for editing XML files or HTML. It also works wonders with parentheses—marries up matching ones with color-coding. Extremely well priced for all it does.
  • Any kind of text editing and manipulation. Wide breadth of support for many types of files and code.
  • Matching parentheses () by color coding is a huge benefit.
  • Column mode makes it easy to transform a flat-file into something easily editable by column.
  • Handles massively sized files easily and quickly.
  • Really hard to come up with any areas of improvement.
  • Maybe the menu could be a little easier to navigate.
  • Only positive ROI on this tool as it is a huge time saver.
Blows basic notepad out of the water. Have tested Edit++ and a few other text editors, and did not find the same breadth of support or ease of use and with UltraEdit. There is a world of choices out there, but for the price, this one is all you need.
Have never needed support, not once. So giving them a 10 for the fact that their product is so good that we've never needed it.

Well suited for any kind of text manipulation. Have flat files? CSVs? XML? HTML? You name it, it can handle it. Do you code in Java, Python, C++, Ruby, VB, or any other language? It can probably handle it.
Super easy way to take snippets (or entire sections) of code and see it parsed and color-coded for review and troubleshooting. The only thing it's not suited for is graphical files or PDFs.
