Arduino IDE Pros and Cons

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

The amount of documentation is good. Not only is there a lot of official documentation, there is also a lot of user-submitted information in the discussion groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

There are very few debugging options. For example, most IDEs allow breakpoints and variable view options, but not the Arduino IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Is it very simple to program on the interface and load the code into the Arduino. In addition, it is very simple to add additional libraries from github or from the library provided by the Arduino IDE itself. It has a very good compilation method, which lets you know if you have some sort of mistake. Also, you can upload your code to a variety of different boards.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

From time to time the app crashes. You need to create a folder to save a file. Also, sometimes the code won't upload to the board, which might be resolved by restarting the board or the computer. In addition, the IDE does not find the board on the list of available ports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Arduino IDE is a light weight application which allows you to work with a wide range of boards. It has a very simple interface and simple programming language i.e. C. One of the best things that I find about this IDE is the libraries. They really help a great deal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Debugging becomes a difficult task because of the absence of line numbers. This is quite irritating at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

I enjoy the ease of use of the code editor, compiler, and loader. The Arduino IDE allows developers to build software (using 3rd party libraries), compile the program code, and deploy to the microcontroller. The IDE also provides a logger to receive text logging to display console logging, which is invaluable for troubleshooting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

At times it's a bit slow when pushing new code to each board. I cannot be certain if this is a limitation of the software or the board, or even the processor of the loading computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

Easy code push to the circuits on click of a button.

Run time and compile time errors.

Pushes the code to circuits only if it is error free.

Easy to connect and write codes for different types of devices and FTDI's using board manager. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

It is very slow compared to other software like Eclipse Arduino.

Although its an IDE, there is no debugging features.

Although its an IDE, there is no intellisense, which is very useful for even a small-to-medium scale project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

It is a very simple and easy to use software.

Very good for small electronic projects especially for someone who is just getting introducted to technology.

IT is capable of doing complex algorithms as well and is really fast.

It has a very user friendly interface and the support for the software is great.

There are a lot of online videos so it is easy to pick up from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

It sometime takes a lot of time to compile and have seen it crash sometimes.

It rarely detects the arduino board and have to reset it multiple times before it can identify it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

i am use of Arduino software many time . it is best to to interface of sensor . And in market available of arduino board. but it software is open source.and to easly write of program."in project purpose very important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

Many time use this software once problem i got upload program is to more time consumption. and program scaning is also slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arduino IDE?

The online community around Arduino is what makes it the best. There are so many libraries created by users online that allow you to accomplish virtually any project. It's a breeze to implement additional software filters, timers, integrate sensors, and program screens thanks to work that has been done my previous users. And the intuitive coding system makes it easy to create new features on your own and share them with others. The boards are super high quality and there are a wide variety available depending on your project needs. Great for beginners and with enough features to satisfy the experts!

What do you dislike about Arduino IDE?

There's always a new version of the arduino IDE and I often find that an older version works better for connecting to some boards...I wish these versions were more consistent and had fewer bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
