What do you like best about Sourcegraph Cody?

Instead of me having to bring context to a language model (e.g. copy pasting to chatgpt, claude, …) Cody is situated right where my code is.

That he forgets the premises. If you ask him to maintain a way of communicating with you, after 2 or 3 questions he forgets the previous context and you have to explain everything again. It's what I like least about him. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sourcegraph Cody?

Sourcegraph is a very beneficial platform for upcoming and amateur developers and employees in small-scale companies. As a student myself, I use Sourcegraph a plethora of times to take a reference for my assignments and projects. Sourcegraph gives me plenty of options upon searching for some kind of solutions for a particular problem.

If I find relative code, I can also directly import it to VsCode which is a nice integration feature and thus makes the software easy to use and saves time as well.

Till now I have not needed to contact customer support since the application is well-tested and hardly contains any software-related bugs that I could make while using it.

Comparing Sourcegraph to its main rival Github Copilot, Sourcegraph is a great option for people with short finances who have just started developing software, and students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sourcegraph Cody?

I have used both Github CoPilot and Sourcegraph. But I would prefer CoPilot over Sourcegraph and Cody due to 2-3 reasons.

Firstly, as an undergraduate student, I get the perks of Github education which grants me access to a premium subscription to Copilot.

Secondly, for any person wanting to utilize the features of both Sourcegraph and Cody, Copilot might be a better option since it combines similar features of both Sourcegraph and Cody in a single Application.

Although reliability is not an issue in Sourcegraph since all the general mass code database exists on Github, Copilot seems to work effortlessly and very smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I tried Cody out in tandem with some other AI assistants and it has definitely been one of the best for the cost out there.

What do you dislike about Sourcegraph Cody?

The copilot/inline suggestions have generally been ok at best, and don't follow as well as some others I've used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
