"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?

Netbeans is a very complete IDE, you are starting in the Java language or you are an expert, it always responds in an excellent way, I used it in my java beginnings and it was very complete and intuitive which helped me a lot in my apprenticeship, the sample of errors, refactoring and debugg helped me a lot in the problems when i was developing, its architecture and tools are very useful when it comes to programming and as I was taking experience felt that netbeans grew with me, finding new pluggins that They were very useful as they were presenting more difficult problems, which is why I find a perfect IDE both to start in Java and for experts in the language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about NetBeans?

Although it is a very complete IDE as you move forward you find small things that should be improved, such as:

When you work with large projects, sometimes it presents crashing problems, this is very annoying, since it can make you lose hours of work, or cut good ideas that you had at the moment, in a high competence IDE this should not happen.

When handling large projects load times take too much time, this slows down the work and causes unnecessary delays, should improve this, because despite the fact that the program has a high consumption of memory, presents these drawbacks.

I would like it to have better skins, much more editable at the design level, more customizable for every taste.

Add more keyboards shortcuts, this is vital for an expert. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering NetBeans:

If you need an IDE that serves both novice and expert, or accompany you throughout your career as a Java developer, Netbeans is what you are looking for, very complete, with the tools and pluggins that you will need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

When the need arose to have a very complete but free IDE, the answer was Netbeans, it allows you to supply the needs of novice programmers who are in the learning stage in Java, but at the same time be very complete and with all the tools and necessary plugins for an expert, having a varied team in netbeans expertise was a great help.

I think the User Interface can be better for writing the code in terms of the syntax.

All other things are pretty good.

The "Resolve Project Problems" dialog is presenting information that it cannot run the program because required supporting libraries are not present in the project setup. If you expand your "ConnectingDataBase" Libraries folders, odds are that none of these libraries are present Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
