A good choice to test your actual knowledge
What do you like best about the product?
Codesignal is that guy that tells you "comm'on bro, let's see what you can". They have a nicely divided sections with different levels & purposes and they let me choose what I want to achieve. One section that I really enjoy is the "interview practice" where I found a lot of problems with a nice approach.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe I would like them to add more focus on UX than on logic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improving coding skills, the algorithms part and the interview practice. All this things helped me for an important interview and pair programming during an interview.
A good place to go for novice developers to build some skills
What do you like best about the product?
CodeSignal has daily challenges and an arcade mode for learning new development skills. The user interface is very good as long as your screen is big enough (tablet or PC). The development method (where you code to a set of unit tests) is better than what is offered by most sites. And, the number of languages supported is enormous.
What do you dislike about the product?
Before CodeSignal's re-brand, you could use the "coins" you earned to by a tee-shirt in their store. Now, you can only buy hints. It's even more annoying that they put the shirt up for sale on a third party site. Since, having that shirt is no longer a badge of honor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have recommended CodeSignal to co-workers who are interested in learning to program. I don't think it does a great job teaching . But, it does a wonderful job of keeping the ideas you might learn in a boot-camp or online class fresh. I also use it to keep my coding skills up, now that I spend more of my day managing than I do coding.
CodeSignal is the best place to test and hone your coding skills
What do you like best about the product?
I love the concept of CodeSignal. It's for coders of all levels and it's a great way to hone your skills. You can see how the top performers' code and it teaches me something new every day.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not a lot I dislike about CodeSignals. I guess the fact that it focuses on making codes as short as possible to get to the top of charts rewards players for bad practices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since I tend to code in one language at a time, the ability to see how other people implement the same algorithm in different languages is a really neat feature.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Absolutely amazing product.
It's fun and educational.
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about codesignal is that you can see the solution of others. If you are learning a new language that's a big plus to see some simple problems solved in that language.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm now only referring to challenges. They are pretty easy, so the word challenge is an exaggeration. It's not a best idea to learn any coding practice from the smallest possible code. It's neither fast nor it's readable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For me is just for fun. I usually spent there 10 minutes a day on the challenge. Far better than reading jokes or etc. ;-)
Favorite Interview Prep website
What do you like best about the product?
- The best thing about CodeSignal is the Gamification of the entire concept of Problem solving. Earning actual points for solving problems which can be used as a sort of currency on the entire app is the one feature that differentiates CodeSignal from the rest. Sure many websites have this concept in place, but CodeSignal's implementation is arguably the best.
- Three different tracks for Interview Prep based on timeline is actually helpful and helped me land my dream job.
- Daily Challenges keep bringing me back.
- UI is much better than may other websites out there.
- The coding interface is polished and easily workable. Many of the early challenges are easy enough to solve with some cheesy solutions, but building efficient ones has been a great exercise.
- Earning Badges is a nice feature.
- 10 Minute tournaments.

What do you dislike about the product?
While there are many small improvements that can be made to this already excellent platform, most of them are just nitpicking at this point. The one thing I would appreciate the most is the ability to comment on solutions of 'Code Friends'.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using CodeSignal to practice problem solving, train my algorithmic skills and preparing for software engineering interviews. I was able to successfully interview for multiple companies following this.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Interview Prep is the best section in CodeSignal.
It has helped prepare me for multiple job interviews.
What do you like best about the product?
The number of problems of varying difficulty
What do you dislike about the product?
I think having comments in code should be required
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Algorithmic problems. I think quicker now
Best platform to hone your coding skills!
What do you like best about the product?
Codesignal is very easy to understand and use, even for a non-CS major trying to get into coding. Arcade section is a great way to get basics right and get up to speed on various programming languages. Company challenges are easy way to get a sense of what an interview at top firms would be like.
What do you dislike about the product?
Challenges are not always above a reasonable difficult level. They are sometimes too easy to solve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It enabled me to write more cleaner code at my work everyday. The site is great way read other people's code and also understand and practice writing more efficient code.
Great Code Practicing Platform
What do you like best about the product?
There is a great social aspect that allows you to actually discuss with other people who are currently using the platform. On other code practicing sites you may add a comment somewhere and get a reply 4 or 5 months later.
What do you dislike about the product?
An emphasis is placed on short code most of the time. While this can lead to being concise in your coding, it can also often lead to poor coding habits.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CodeSignal is great for allowing me to have a warm up for the day. It helps to get my mind in the problem solving mode to tackle problems at work.
CodeSignal has been an addicting platform to harness my coding problem solving skills.
What do you like best about the product?
I personally enjoy the more streamlined problem approach CodeSignal provides where you have pre built curriculum for certain topics. It starts off easy but gets harder as you go.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately it's hard to share problems with friends who either don't have the coins to unlock certain problems or haven't been on the site before.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm just working on the arcade intro problems and sometimes the array interview practice questions. I haven't really done problems like this before so CodeSignal has taught me to aim to create more efficient solutions as it won't accept certain inefficient ones.
