Eclipse Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Eclipse as the main development environment for building software. In my personal case, I use it to develop web applications with Magnolia CMS product. Eclipse has different plugins you can find on its marketplace that allows you to easily integrate web bases solutions. It also supports many different languages and file types.

Likelihood to Recommend

In my opinion, Eclipse is a well-suited integrated development environment that doesn't lack any particular functionality thanks to its marketplace and the community behind it. You can build any type of software, from web applications to desktop programs, with any tool you choose and Eclipse very likely will be able to handle it. The only negative point of Eclipse is that its performance is not optimal and consumes a lot of RAM from your PC.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

1. Eclipse takes care of things like formatting, documentation, packaging, etc, which saves around 20 % of the time so that we can focus on developing actual business logic which helps us to manage time.

2. Using Eclipse is like a day-to-day task for me, as I work in Java it is very simple and convenient to use, it is one of the best IDE I have come across.

3. Simple UI given is very helpful to focus on the more relevant task.

Likelihood to Recommend

If you started learning any new technology like Java you can start exploring Eclipse as it is very easy to use and very clean UI.

If you want more interaction with some other third-party tool you can compare other IDE's available in the market.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our platform unlocks the most power from it when users use the full IDE experience, which is powered by Eclipse. Many years ago we had our own UI but developers asked for basics that they expect any IDE to handle - file management, window management, consistent compile-edit lifecycle, etc. Eventually, we realized the best way to get this was simply by being an Eclipse-based product.

Likelihood to Recommend

If the developer is working on a large codebase, in Java in particular, imho there is no substitute for Eclipse, period. If using Maven, the experience will be about 90% there, but frankly Eclipse is the defacto standard, imho, for solid enterprise development. Doesn't look as swanky as VS Code, but that's really just an editor that invokes external tools, let's face it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Eclipse for developing the software. The software is developed in JAVA with a usage of Spring, Hibernate and some other frameworks. As we can choose from 2 IDE products within our IT department, it can be used by whoever decides to use it. It addresses business problems connected with our software.

Likelihood to Recommend

As Eclipse is free of charge, my organization saves the money for license purchases. Even though the product is free, it does not mean it lacks features as code completion, plugin integration, all of these work well. I like the fact I can open multiple projects in project explorer, and I have them accessible all in one place without the need to open a new window.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We currently use Eclipse IDE for some departments that like to use this IDE for software development. Our developers use it to quickly write code and deploy as it is easy to use and onboard new devs on it. It is also written to write unit testing for some of our applications. We also use Eclipse to deploy and test the applications using third-party tools which can be directly integrated into eclipse like TestNG.

Likelihood to Recommend

Eclipse is great for small teams/apps with a tight budget. It does not make sense for larger organizations with heavy integrations with other apps. In that case, a Visual Studio solution would make sense. Also, Eclipse doesn't tie you down to a certain OS environment so you can work in Linux or windows. Also, this is a great application just to learn programming quickly and easily for new devs or even writing small programs to automate tasks.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Eclipse has been used very extensively all across our development teams for building variety of software products. I consider it to be one of the most reliable & versatile IDE in the market as it has almost every features which a developer would look for. It works & integrates very well with repositories like Github & SVN. It's overall user friendly UI helps developers write the code without any hassle. We were looking for an IDE which can support programming in multiple languages, so eclipse has really helped us in this aspect.

Likelihood to Recommend

It's an easy to use IDE which fulfills almost every purpose for a developer. For me I would highly recommend using this IDE when working with Java or Javascript programming language. However it supports other languages too with availability of different perspective.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Eclipse IDE is used in the IT department for software development and solutions to problems that arise within the organization on a daily basis.

It is used for the creation of services until the creation of compiled files to be consumed by other processes, it is also used to create personalized libraries that will be consumed by other services or programs.

These softwares can be used throughout the organization for daily tasks that can be presented to users.

Likelihood to Recommend

Being free, it is one of the best IDE for Java programming, it offers you a wide range of plugins that allow you to customize it as you like.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Eclipse is used in [the] software development department by developers that need to write code in Java programming language. As it's an integrated development environment (IDE), it speeds up the code writing and compilation processes by having features that assist with tasks that developers have to deal with daily, like code completion and unit testing.

Likelihood to Recommend

[The] biggest advantage of Eclipse is the large amount of installable addon software available for it in Eclipse Marketplace, and it's easy to install them through the UI. It's a great and established IDE with every feature available you would imagine you ever need, but the UI is dated, and more user friendly options exist.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Eclipse is the recommended IDE by default for application development using the JAVA language. We develop Rest APIs and MVC web applications with it.

Likelihood to Recommend

To be honest, I don't recommend Eclipse at all. [In my opinion] it's an old IDE, with bad interface, confusing usability, with high memory consumption and there are better, smarter, more feature-rich, and lighter IDEs than Eclipse.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It's one of the IDEs that many developers use daily. Most Java engineers use it to write and debug code. It's used across the entire engineering team.

Likelihood to Recommend

It's suitable for almost all Java development work. Despite areas of improvement, it's still one of the best IDEs out there.
