"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?

These are the characteristics of this powerful IDE, which I liked most tool:

* It is an IDE that adapts to several languages ​​Multi-platform: The code that is written in java is read by an interpreter, so your program will walk on any platform.

* Automatic memory management. (for those who come from C / C ++). Memory management is done automatically and using the garbage collector.

* It's free!.

* Develop dynamic web applications.

* Develop server applications for online forums, warehouses, surveys, HTML forms processing and much more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetBeans?

Unfortunately there have been the characteristics of this tool that I have not liked, or in my opinion, I do not tolerate this IDE:

- Its slowness when executing applications (although it has improved over time, in the case of languages ​​compiled as JAVA the IDE is sometimes locked)

- Requires an interpreter.

- Some implementations and libraries may have a sophisticated code.

- 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.

Recommendations to others considering NetBeans:

Remember that it is not about comparing which IDE is better, it is always about the IDE that for you, the developer feels more comfortable and comfortable doing their functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

This IDE, I have had the opportunity to work both professionally and personally, at the business level has made the work much easier, if we relate it in time management you save a lot using the IDE efficiently, for example it is easy to create web services and API, consume them through JAVA, the IDE provides you with a help that generates a very fast and efficient client, it is just an example of how powerful and useful this tool can be.
