Apache NetBeans reviews

I very decent IDE for large Java projects

Opmerkingen: My overall experience with Netbeans is positive. When it comes to large Java projects I often choose it as my IDE. Although, I'm sure there are better alternatives out there.

Pluspunten:

What I like most is the built-in debugger with variable inspection.

Minpunten:

Sometimes indexing takes a lot of time and it eats up too much RAM memory.

Apache NetBeans the Perfect IDE for Programmers

Opmerkingen: Apache NetBeans is the perfect IDE in the recent technology with multiple and flexible programming platform.

Pluspunten:

Apache NetBeans provides excellent features where you can create your project using different categories such as maven, ant, Gradle, PHP and so on. It has helped me improve on my java applications where each and every time a have an idea, I am able to upgrade to a newer version.

Minpunten:

As far as I am concerned, every time I think there is something missing, it is always there when I research online about it.

Deploy PHP in Netbeans

Opmerkingen: My experience with NetBeans is good for develop PHP, but the plugins that install in an older version not run in a new version or broke the IDE.

Pluspunten:

search of code in a project is simple, useful and simple. Breakpoint is a good tool for the deployment and find bugs

Minpunten:

It is heavy and de user GUI isn't actual and simple. Have many options, that is difficult to find in a large menu.

A powerful, user-friendly way to develop Java applications

Opmerkingen: NetBeans has been incredibly useful in developing Java applications for my scientific research.

Pluspunten:

It's a powerful, yet incredibly user-friendly platform for developing of Java applications.

Minpunten:

The learning curve can be somewhat steep if you're new to this type of software.

Apache Netbeans: A Leading IDE for Java Desktop and Web Development

Opmerkingen: Apache Netbeans is the only IDE I need for my Java Desktop application development.

Pluspunten:

Apache Netbeans is my favorite Java IDE for developing Java Desktop applications. Netbeans has a very user friendly interface with a specialized palette containing the different Swing GUI components that can be added to the application in a Drag-and-Drop fashion making the desktop GUI development very simplistic and rapid. The code auto-completion is also very decent though some advancements can still be incorporated to make it much better. Linking the desktop application to Web and Database servers is also very intuitive which makes Netbeans a complete Java IDE for rapid application development.

Minpunten:

Code auto completion can be enhanced with auto package importing as we witness in Google's Android Studio IDE. Moreover the performance is a bit laggy and crippled with the increase in the number of threads. This is a typical Java pattern as Netbeans is developed in Java itself.

Solid, customisable, no frills Java IDE

Opmerkingen: Netbeans is like an old Volvo. It might not be the sexiest IDE to look at, but it requires very little maintenance and just gets the job done every time. It's rock steady, and has pretty much all the functionality you need.

Pluspunten:

The Swing GUI editor makes it extremely easy to build programs with fairly complex UI with drag and drop components, that are then easily wired up to functionality.

Minpunten:

It often takes a long time for new features to make it to the IDE, and it can be a bit of a learning curve to get started.

Very good IDE for Java

Pluspunten:

I loved its smart code completion features and suggestion features of classes, methods and variables in Java. Its Gui builder is also very good and easy to use. Its built-in debugger was also good and was really useful for me.

Minpunten:

I think it is taking too many resources and feels laggy sometimes when running heavy projects. Using it feels heavy than using other lighter IDE.

It has potencial, but it is still in the past

Opmerkingen: I have used this IDE to teach others to use java, most of the time works well and it´s easy to get started as developer by using Netbeans, but there are bugs that don´t make this IDE ideal for anybody or reliable to work with

Pluspunten:

IDE size it´s okay and it does not take many resorces of my computer, it has the same tools that many others Java IDE´s have but free, also this would be a good IDE to start learning java

Minpunten:

so, there are errors that don´t happen in other IDE with the same code, GUI needs to be reimagined

It was very good.. but now it needs a face lift

Opmerkingen: Good experience but now exists other options more lighter and with graphics interface according to this times

Pluspunten:

Many many tools for devepolers. It can be configurated to support Language like PHP, JAVA, HTML etc.And the GUI can be customizable, with colorn fonts, views and customs commands.

Minpunten:

Its weight to load and Its needs a full redesign of its graphical interface... Much newer, much fresher. Since it keep the style of many years ago

Developer Friendly

Opmerkingen: I have developed many web and desktop applications for payment systems.

Pluspunten:

As in every IDE, it has auto-completion, error detection and correction features. But the important features for me are the quick and easy interface design, the drag-and-drop feature, and the rapid design of visual interfaces. At the same time, NetBeans has made my compiling, merging, packaging, and distribution of code very easy and has provided many integrated tools for this.

Minpunten:

It more than met my expectation. I like using it. I love every feature of it.

Review for Apache NetBeans

Opmerkingen: I work daily with this IDE to develop applications in Java, C++ and Python. Apache NetBeans provides agility, high performance, cost reduction and a great integration with DevOps resources.

Pluspunten:

Easy to install, manage and use. It has features and resources for numerous programming languages through plugins. It is the perfect environment for programming systems with the Java programming language.

Minpunten:

I think the Apache NetBeans installation could be independent of the JDK, for example, natively developed for Windows, MacOS, and other operating systems.

Hadning Application Development Like a Pro

Pluspunten:

When it comes to developing applications, Apache NetBeans is king and comes with easy debugging features.

Minpunten:

Not ideal for new users - training is necessary

Makes Java coding easier

Pluspunten:

Overall, it's very clean and a great interface for Java coding

Minpunten:

There can be a bit of a learning curve. This is Apache's fault but you really need to KNOW java before starting to use the program

Best free & open source software

Opmerkingen: One of the oldest and best software for developing software. I used it for mostly developing Java & PHP applications. Now I'm using it exclusively for developing Java applications. One thing I really loved about developing Java applications on Netbeans is simple desktop application development interface. Just drag & drop development is really helpful in my early career. Even we can configure components in GUI. Also versioning is built in Netbeans. So pushing & pulling from Netbeans is simple. On other IDEs, I'm achieving same by using GitHub Desktop application. Netbeans natively supporting it.

Pluspunten:

It has built-in debug, run, versioning system, themes, customization, etc. Also it support a lots of programming languages. It's feature can be extended by using plugins. It provides drag & drop interface for Java application development. That's a great advantage of Netbeans. Also it is cross platform. I used Netbeans Windows, Linux, finally on Mac.

Minpunten:

It's memory hungry. That is expected behavior because it is built using Java. Which is known for aggressive memory usage. Running Netbeans on a Laptop causes quick battery drain and overheating.

A very good IDE for Developers

Opmerkingen: Overall I am happy as a user of NetBeans. It fulfills all of my requirements as an IDE. I mostly code in Java and PHP and it supports both languages very well.

Pluspunten:

I mostly liked the auto-suggestion, code compilation at code writing time, and find and replace features. It supports a lot of shortcuts which makes coding easy and fast. We can integrate other software easily like Tomcat and MariaDB.

Minpunten:

The only thing is when we try to open a big project in NetBeans, One can feel the little slowness.

My first IDE as an undergraduate

Opmerkingen: This is the first IDE that I used for java development when I was an undergraduate. I have done several projects using java and java-fx using netbeans.

Pluspunten:

A free software which supports multiple programming languages. Different types of plugins are available. It is a good IDE for a beginner.

Minpunten:

It took considerable time to load the project content when the project size is big. And also interfaces are old fashioned.

Excellent and versatile IDE for Java GUI projects

Pluspunten:

NetBeans IDE has several shortcuts that reduce workload. It also offers a task management space that displays your work, as well as a good view so you can always see what you're working on. Netbeans features an appealing user interface that makes it simple to use. It is simple to install and use, and it interacts easily with Git, Mercurial, and Subversion. Netbeans has Controls that may be dragged and dropped onto a designer page and used to build an application.

Minpunten:

The main disadvantage is that the view offered here is a single-type view IDE that lacks the ability to compile several snippets in a single file at the same time. It is hefty, and if you are using a low-end machine, it may hang. In the navigation window, the dark theme is not available.

My go to IDE

Opmerkingen: Since I began my journey, I have used many different IDEs but I always return to Netbeans. I love the simple straight forward design and the interface isn’t clutter. While it might not have all the bell and whistles of some of the newer IDEs it has always been consistent and stable for my use. I will say this that the IDE you use depends heavily on the first IDE you use when your learning to code. This can shape your entire experience. Even the operating system you start on can also affect your experience. I have been able to use Netbeans almost every whether it be Windows, Linux or OSX.

Pluspunten:

The bulk of the work I do involves Java programming and so, I have been using Netbeans for almost a decade. Its free and there are custom plugins adding new features. This means that I can use Netbeans to create my web applications as well. Netbeans is also the best IDE for creating software with GUIs. Testing, debugging and version control is simple and I can sync my projects with my Github account. I build most of my JavaFx applications using easy to integrate third party software. Wix and Inno Setup compatibility allows me to build my Jar applications into windows applications with installers. Netbeans also supports composer which allows me to access my PHP dependencies.

Minpunten:

Netbeans is can be a bit slow. You will need a pc/laptop with a decent amount of resources to be able to speed up certain actions. Working with large GUI applications can cause slowdowns as the Netbeans can use quite a bit of Ram. Outside this there are no other downsides.

Apache NetBeans Review.

Opmerkingen: Its easy to use and integrate with other software. Its also free for students and has amazing prices for enterprises.

Pluspunten:

I like how easy it is to use and develop using this software. Specifically developing in Java on this IDE is amazing.

Minpunten:

Honestly the only issue I have with this software are its high computational requirements, it requires a lot of machine power for it to run. Its designed for high end devices and thus is not good for businesses that run on low end devices.

Simple UI and easy to use

Opmerkingen: when it comes to java development, apache netbeans is the best IDE that offers simple drag and drop features.

Pluspunten:

I love the drag and drop feature which makes it easy to develop applications. Apache Netbeans is easy to use and has a simple UI

Minpunten:

Sometimes it is difficult to find project tabs and when working on heavy projects the response is slow

Recommended, value for money product

Opmerkingen: have a good experience and hands on product

Pluspunten:

This Software have many advantage but main is the easy to install and user friendly ..more productivity.

Minpunten:

Cost is the some least thing ..need to drop some cost for developer

NetBeans is a Great IDE!

Opmerkingen: Overall, I have had a fairly positive experience with Apache Netbeans. I use this software daily, and it has been very helpful and useful for my studies. My course requires Netbeans and includes tutorials for Netbeans, so that's how I really learned how to use it and be comfortable using it. I think that it definitely could be updated in terms of appearance, but overall it is a really great IDE.

Pluspunten:

What I like most about Netbeans is that it has a lot of features, such as automatically creating JAR and WAR files, which I've really needed for class. It is also really easy to use SQL and databases, JDBC databases, and webforms/Servlets. It is really endless what you can use NetBeans for. Also, it shows errors and clues to fix the errors within a user's code.

Minpunten:

What I don't love about this software is that it looks like a really dated IDE. I wish that it looked a little more modern. It also took me a little while before I became comfortable to use it and learned how the features work. I would recommend reading about how to use Netbeans as you are starting out.

Great place to build desktop & web applications

Opmerkingen: As someone who codes in Java, I must say that Apache NetBeans made my life much easier. It is hard to find a software similar to this which is open source and contain all the features this has. Therefore, this is the best software out there which can be used to create stand-alone or web applications.

Pluspunten:

Apache NetBeans is the place where I build and run all my desktop and web applications. NetBeans has auto-completion feature which I like the most. It saves time and reduces errors. When I talk about errors I must say that NetBeans shows compilation errors during the execution in a manner that I can easily understand where I made mistakes. NetBeans comes with a lot short cut keys which saves my time and speeds up the coding process.

Minpunten:

There is no minus point about Apache NetBeans. The only problem I have is that it takes some time to respond when I debug.

Most reliable IDE, been using it for years

Pluspunten:

I have using this since my High School, College and University days. It is an awesome IDE which mainly runs Java but I use it actively for C++, C and sometimes even for interpreted languages like Php. It has a great interface which is easy to work with and is very stable. One of the perks of using this is that its and open source software so you do not really need to pay anything for using it.

Minpunten:

It does tend to be a little slow and heavy to start up especially if you are running an older PC running a processor like Intel i3. But yes even on those machines once it starts up, you will notice no problems. Apart from that its an aweosme tool and there are absolutely no complaints.

Review on NetBeans.

Opmerkingen: As a basic Java developer, we work on a concept called Servlets in Java. In that servlets concept, we make use of apache tomcat tool. In the case of eclipse, we need to download some packages, deploy it in our eclipse IDE which adds on some extra work. But in Netbeans, tomcat support is readily avalible. If I want to create a web service, I need to make use of Glassfish Server. In Netbeans, Glassfish support is available without the need for external packages. I have tried to make use of Swing GUI where we can drag the components in a GUI Builder and the source code is designed automatically according to the components placed in GUI builder. Another important feature is auto-completion of code and a built-in SQL Editor. My overall experience working with Netbeans is so satisfying as it provides such good in-built features.

Pluspunten:

1) It is a free and open source IDE. 2) Inbuilt Integration of server applications like Tomcat and Glassfish. 3) Can run on operating systems like Windows, Mac, Linux. 4) We can import the project source code from global repositories like GitHub. 5) We can write the code in Multiple languages like Java, PHP, C, C++, JavaScript, HTML5. 6) Some other features like auto-completion of code, code optimization, search and replacement of code. 7) The Netbeans support is very good as they provide solutions for our queries within a short span of time with optimized solutions. 8) We can customize our own themes to make our GUI more interactive.

Minpunten:

I did not find any flaws with this software.
