I have been using netbeans since i was in college for my assignments and i just fell in loved about it,was the fact that it catered for all my programming needs,i could do web,java,c/c+ using one ide and it worked wonders and the best part is that its free.one of my favorite features is code hinting which really helps when programming under pressure Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
well i love almost everything about it,i only had few problems when i upgraded fro 7 to 8 it was taking long to open and dragging a bit maybe because of my system specs,was using a dual core Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I havent use this software as much as I would like, I just decided not to program anymore, but when I started using this software, it promises a lot, it haves plenty of tools to help you programing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
there is nothing that I remember that I would dislike about this software, is not perfect thats for sure, but its not necesary a software impossible to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Unlike Eclipse. netbeans lets me stay in the IDE without shifting workspaces. It understands I want to put elements into jar files and just run it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One issue compared to visual studio is I can’t select files and have them automatically put into the distribution directly. I have to enter the xml file and change the settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been a NetBeans user for the longest time for both Java, PHP, HTML5/CSS3 development projects and it has been the single, most dependable IDE for me personally - sort of like a Swiss knife. I specially liked the Publish-to-Server via FTP/SFTP functionality and Chrome debugger plugin, for web projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Depending on the version used, the publish to server functionality can be buggy - for example, when publishing via FTP, the server may not always publish the selected files and keep a track of what was published. Instead, you would have needed to select "everything" and rewrite everything on the server, in an FTP upload which got frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interface of Netbeans is very simple and awesome. The feature that NetBeans allows applications to be developed from a set of modular is amazing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It takes some long time to load and also Netbeans do not support many of the javascript languages. Takes up more memory than lighter IDEs. Advanced tools and features require some training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I used to develop some java applications with it, and it was my favourite at the time, it was really extensible, the Swing designer was very easy to use and autocomplete functionality worked like a charm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some things get to be too automatic which is not necessarilly a bad thing, but once I spent several days trying to fix a big bug which happend to be created by some automatic function of the IDE which created a bad configuration file, which in my opinion speaks of bad QA while developing the Netbeans.

Mostly everything. As an IDE, it's very complete, with a lot of tools. Proving a good interface, plugins support and everything else. You can even use Swing Forms to create some prototypes of Swing components or even develop a full Swing interface on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are a few minor bugs that needs to be addressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
