What do you like best about ReSharper C++?

ReSharper allowed me to quickly identify many errors in my code I would not have caught otherwise. This product has made me a far more effective developer, in particular thanks to its code refactoring features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ReSharper C++?

As a personal preference, some of the syntax highlighting is hard to detect on the default settings. This can be changed in the settings, but the initial setup is not as easy on the eyes as it could be. Also, getting the software set up was more difficult on my work machine due to a non default install location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ReSharper C++:

ReSharper C++ is an extremely helpful add-in to my software development pipeline. I would recommend that new users of this product switch the default preferences to something easier on the eyes, such as a darker theme, or some other color for syntax highlighting. Overall, a C++ developer cannot go wrong using this product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ReSharper C++ solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main business problem I face is writing custom software solutions for local companies. This software allowed me to work quickly and productively to get solutions to clients in even shorter windows of time. Overall, the code refactoring and syntax highlighting has been such a nice change compared to what I previously used. Initially, I just used a terminal window (emacs) to write quick and dirty C++ programs to get the job done. However, switching to a full IDE with features that ReSharper C++ provides has resulted in a massively improved quality of life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
