What do you like best about UltraEdit?

UltraEdit deftly handles different character encoding and line endings from files across platforms. The syntax highlighting is excellent, and supports all the different programming languages I use at work. Column editing mode, and multiple cursor mode, are unique and powerful ways to edit blocky code. Packed with convenience features I frequently use, such as convert selection to uppercase or lowercase, and display character properties. Another awesome feature is fine / replace in files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

UltraEdit takes about 2 to 3 seconds to load after launch. Not bad, though I wish it was faster. Also, occassionally it will not open, and I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and find it in my task manager to end an invisible instance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I need a robust and secure code editor for work. I typically program in Python, Javascript, HTML, CSS, and Visual Basic Script. UltraEdit supports all the languages I need, and is highly customizable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about UltraEdit?

Over fifteen years ago, when I was just starting my career, I found out about UltraEdit. I had been looking for something that easily functioned in Column Mode. It does, and it has so many other features I have been relying upon for fifteen years. I purchased an unlimited license (it hurt early on) and I still don't regret it. Also, it blows away all the other Mac text editors out there (I know because I tried them before UE was on a Mac). It's one of the pieces of software that I have to have for work and play. And it's been functioning consistently for me (if not improving) the entire time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

I really can't think of something I dislike about UltraEdit...it's just so reliable and customizable I don't think I've ever crashed it (maybe user error by opening too many files). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Text Editing in Column Mode on a PC and a Mac. DOS command line output on a PC. One of the best ways to sneak a peak at files to make sure they are as they should be when nothing else seems to be working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about UltraEdit?

I used Ultraedit to write HTML and Javascript codes. The syntax highlighting is great, and it supports various programming languages.

What do you dislike about UltraEdit?

Can't think of any. It takes time to load, but I believe it is due to my computer. Other than that, I have never experienced any issues with UltraEdit.It is highly customizable, so there are no problems with that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
