"Netbeans, a good Java IDE, but for others, poor"
I like two things mainly, the way you can create GUIs, and the way it works for Java, is my main IDE when I'm working with Java.

What do you like best about NetBeans?

in particular I like NetBeans since I am a Java and PHP programmer I have to make and revise code in these two programming languages ​​and although I have tried other text editors with NetBeans I have everything I need for both languages ​​this tool is very predictive the languages ​​that I use and it is very extensible with a large amount of plugin that has to install and with all this I indicate in spite of having so many qualities it is very simple to install and all this comes out totally free you do not have to pay a license to use it commercially and no annoying advertising appears on NetBeans Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetBeans?

I dislike NetBeans that as you add new plugins the performance drops noticeably slower to work and more if it is a large project with many files and lines of code it takes too long to lift the application and sometimes it even hangs and there is I have to start it again which is not so serious but that disgusts me Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering NetBeans:

si eres una persona que quieres un editor de texto para el lenguaje Java NetBeans es el mejor que puedes instalar para realizar tus proyectos en este lenguaje de programación es completo fácil con una buena interfaz y es totalmente libre lo único que tienes que tener en cuenta si tu maquina es de 64bit ya que he visto que con 32bit no funciona tan perfectamente Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NetBeans solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use NetBeans mainly to work with Java and it is a good option for Php although there are maybe better options for this last language but one of the best benefits it gives me is that it is excellent for integration with third party software like GIT and this is a great benefit above all to update code collaboratively Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about NetBeans?

NetBeans empowers smooth and quick code altering. The code manager gives integral assets, code layouts, code generators, and coding tips that empower designers to refactor code effectively. It bolsters different dialects and can without much of a stretch be stretched out by means of modules to encourage additional usefulness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetBeans?

NetBeans is very slow IDE. It takes a lot of time to load and also occupies a lot of memory. so when we use NetBeans we can not able to use any other tool or software in parallel . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering NetBeans:

If you looking for a good java app development IDE, then its my recommendation to use this IDE. It is very reliable and user friendly. it takes few days to have hand on this tool but once you start using it. you will become addicted to this IDE and you din't like any other environment for development. and if your laptop ot system have very less space or memory then dont use this as it takes a lot of space and it decrease the performace of your system, and in case if you want to use another tool or application in parallel then you may loss your motherboard. so use as per your computer configurations else use any other IDE for better performance and laptop safety.

What do you like best about NetBeans?

The best thing about Netbeans is its autocomplete plugin that works brilliantly for application development in Java and PHP languages. (These are the ones I have tried, I don't know how they work in other languages). Additionally, the great ease for creating user interfaces (UI) in Java because its designer is very intuitive and offers different layers for creating forms. (It also has support for MigLayout).

And, without a doubt, the best feature of Netbeans is the management of databases; honestly, it is the IDE that best implements and manages MySQL databases, which is very useful if you have to handle your project with any language, whether it is PHP or Java.

Finally, recognize that the community plays an important role in making Netbeans so popular due to their contributions in plugins, as well as in documentation and help or support for new IDE users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetBeans?

I will never understand how it is possible to create such a complete IDE and overlook such an important aspect as the visual. The default interface and the chosen font, as well as the icon theme, are literally ugly and look outdated. The icons do not describe at all the action they represent.

Unfortunately, this is something very common among IDEs and I do not understand why it is so difficult to use more up-to-date graphic libraries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering NetBeans:

Easy and intuitive development environment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NetBeans solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have been using Netbeans for a long time for my projects, especially those I program in Java because its UI designer is very comprehensive and works without glitches or bugs. I mentioned failing because it is very common in other IDEs that they cannot drag objects within the form. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about NetBeans?

A Netbeans is much more than a text printer. The NetBeans Editor implements lines, matches words and pins, and exceeds the source code syntactically and semantically. In addition this preserves an accurate description of large applications, with hundreds of folders and files, and hundreds of lines of code, is a daunting task. Rapid development of the user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetBeans?

what displeases Netbeans is that by its slowness when running applications is very tedious as it sometimes takes to load the software, the bad thing is that it requires an interpreter.

Some implementations and libraries may have sophisticated code. also having a bad implementation of a program in java, can result in something very slow.

Some tools have an additional cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This makes life easier for us to create software, although it seems a little difficult as there is to be knowledge of programming but the main and important function is to serve as a tool so that they can be like who says run the programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is NetBeans solving and how is that benefiting you?

Netbeans offers or gives us a wide range of tools to all programmers and this way helps us to write, compile, debug and execute programs. It is written in Java - but it can be used for any other programming language.
