Cursor Speeds Up Prototyping with Smart UX Engineering
What do you like best about the product?
Cursor is a very intelligent tool for building prototypes faster. I can import design system tokens from Figma and manage the UX engineering side more smoothly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it takes more than three prompts for it to understand the output I need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cursor is helping solve design handoff issues, and it speeds up the process between the design and dev teams.
Great AI first IDE for rapid software development
What do you like best about the product?
I like it's Agent Window, where I just need to talk with the agent and do not need to worry about the code changes and just focus on the output. I also like it's model selection where it has auto mode, max mode, so based on the promp/work needed we can save the tokens. We can also set the global rules that will be applied on each prompt.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has two different settings areas: one for Cursor-specific settings and another for VS Code settings. I feel like Cursor could merge these, or at least keep everything under the VS Code settings with an additional tab, instead of creating a separate settings section.
Also, Cursor should periodically incorporate the latest changes from VS Code, especially UI updates. There are a lot of useful UI improvements happening in VS Code, and sometimes Cursor feels behind.
Another issue is that sometimes I’m not able to find verified VS Code extensions. Since Cursor is fetching extensions from the open registry, it would help if there were some kind of verification in place. Maybe at the Cursor level, they could verify some popular publishers so it’s easier to trust what you’re installing.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's just super useful for repetitive tasks. We can just give the existing code setup and can build the similar features without using much tokens and without using thinking models. I now also use this for creating complex UI flows in our platform. It's saving a lot of time in software development.
Powerful Vibe Coding with Your Choice of LLM
What do you like best about the product?
You can vibe code and select the LLM of your choice, GPT, or claude. Someone who is not into coding, this is very powerful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI, specifically who does not know how does an IDE works, this can become very confusing for a new person into this platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to build stuff and for someone who does not how to build solutions, it gives me the power to build them from scratch.
Seamless Cursor Integration That Speeds Up Coding and R&D
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most is how seamlessly Cursor integrates into my coding workflow. Instead of switching between tools or constantly Googling things, I can ask Cursor directly inside the editor. It’s especially helpful when I’m working on repetitive code or trying to understand unfamiliar parts of a codebase. The inline suggestions and the ability to edit code using prompts feel very natural once you get used to them.
I also like that it shows the changes made across all files, so it’s easier to keep track of what’s been updated. It responds very quickly and generates code fast as well.
Setup is basically effortless: you just install it, log in with your account, and you’re good to go. Pricing seems mostly in line with other tools available.
Another plus is that I can run the application inside it, so I don’t have to open another IDE. I use it for my day-to-day coding and for generating my API documentation as it has the context of API's. It has become so easy to share API docs across teams.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it overcomplicates things when, in reality, the solution is very simple. At times it touches the code even though we have asked it not to touch or update it.
It also tries to create generic code when it isn’t needed, and ends up adding many functions and extra logic around it. This makes the code reviewer’s responsibility more complex, because we have to thoroughly check the commits and ensure no unwanted changes go to production.
If it can better understand the question, and also understand the coding patterns and logic of the codebase, and then write code in a similar style, it would be very helpful. It should only use generic code or good coding patterns when we specifically ask for it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem it solves is helping me code faster. It lets you do things more quickly and better, and it works especially well for frontend design. We’ve integrated FIGMA for UI/UX, and it understands the design and generates a very closely matching UI.
On the backend side, if you know the logic and provide a strong prompt, it can generate code in minutes that would take a human 2–3 days. This supports faster delivery and faster development, and it also allows me to focus on the main problems.

Powerful Daily Productivity Gains with Cursor Across Teams
What do you like best about the product?
Cursor is a powerful AI tool that integrates with our codebase and other tooling to handle internal operations, as well as analyze and write code. We use it daily across our teams for whatever comes our way, and the early results have been amazing with great productivity gains across the board.
It's not inly reserved to Engineering teams but for all, helping with starting PoCs, bug fixing, ways of working improvements, data analysis and so much more.
It also fits smoothly into our current stack, including Atlassian, Slack, and Miro.

What do you dislike about the product?
The desktop UI could have different layers, specially for non developers to become a more prompt like tool.
Also, having to setup a repo for doing our local queries is a bit too muc if we just want to use it for some simple prompts.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Cursor daily for a wide range of use cases: basic prompts, setting up AI agents, feature development, bug fixing, and data analysis. We also connect it with other tools via MCP to pull in data from tools such as Atlassian, Slack, and Miro.
VS Code-Like Experience with Excellent AI Code Completion
What do you like best about the product?
It feels a lot like VS Code, so migrating from VS Code is pretty straightforward. For me, the best feature is the AI code completion.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are very frequent updates, and the UI keeps changing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me complete coding tests faster and more efficiently, and it makes debugging issues much easier. Overall, it provides a very fast coding experience, and the suggestions are usually quite accurate.

Easy to use and very intuitive. It also offers a lot of integrations and extensions. The AI feature is very helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
Almost nothing, I can't think about anything that I dislike
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to code and using AI to accelerate my tasks.
Cursor Supercharges Coding and Product Development with Smooth VS Code Transition
What do you like best about the product?
I use Cursor for my daily work, and it’s a great tool for coding and product development. It supports many AI models, and the plan mode is amazing—it plans everything, and we can integrate pretty much everything. Around 90% of my code is written by Cursor, and it helps me build products quickly.
That said, the $20 plan drains quickly for APIs. In the beginning it felt good for $20 because it seemed like real unlimited usage was provided, but now it’s limited. Still, for using it with auto mode, it’s great. For complex tasks, we definitely need to use some good models from Claude.
Since it’s based on VS Code, the transition from VS Code is very smooth. Performance-wise, it works well if you have a good system; otherwise it can take too much memory and start to lag. On my MacBook Pro M2 it works well, but on my other MacBook Air M1 it can get laggy if I keep agents running and have two or more projects open.
Support has been good too. Once I needed to cancel my subscription, and they helped me with it.

What do you dislike about the product?
The usage limit gets drained quickly for APIs, and for auto they’ve made it limited.
