Great IDE for Arduino Hobbyists!
What do you like best about the product?
Arduino IDE is a great, lightweight IDE to get any new Arduino developer up and running. There are few bells and whistles, and the fact that it's free means that the barrier to entry is relatively low. One of my favorite features is the Serial Monitor, which makes debugging projects much easier. Additionally, there is a fairly active community of users who can help with any issues you may encounter while writing Arduino code with this IDE.
What do you dislike about the product?
Line numbers! This IDE desperately needs line numbers!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Arduino IDE is how I learned to write programs for my Arduino. Professionally, I am a software developer, but I have recently been moving myself towards learning more software/hardware integration. Arduino and this IDE have been a great introduction to the topic.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great place to start when learning Arduino. Try to pressure the developers to add line numbers, though!
Best way to start with Arduino
What do you like best about the product?
Arduino IDE is easy and simple - ideal for a begining of a jurney to IoT world. It's easily configurable and you need to set only few things to start working with your new microcontroler. You don't necessarily have to buy original Arduino board. Beacause Arduino IDE is modular and have strong community support you can download board definition and use microcontroler like ESP8266 or ESP32. It have all the based libraries and hudge database of external libraries that can be download by a click of a button.
What do you dislike about the product?
Editor is very simple, to simple to be used with big, multifile project. It's missing basic functionalities of bigger commercial IDE like syntax auto-completion and good syntax highlighting. Your own library management could be painful. No git support build in.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy start for junior developers to a IoT world.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your thing about IoT git Arduino and Arduino IDE a try.

Embedded Programming Using Arduino
What do you like best about the product?
The arduino IDE is great for beginners in embedded programming. It has sufficient resources for those who need to program and not get lost amid so many things. The programmed can choose the device or board that will program, can choose the port that will use, among other benefits. In addition, the language used is based on C / C ++ very simple and easy to use. IDE brings a series of ready-made examples for the person to use and already has many libraries ready to go using any extra components.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the arduino IDE there are two features missing: The first is that the debug that does not exist, to simulate the debug I need to create add snippets of code in the programming. The second is the identation of the IDE which is very bad, very close to the guide line. These are the only two problems I saw in Arduino.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used the arduino to make an auto stand. He walked alone by any environment and if he encountered an obstacle on the way he would stop and check which was the best way out and if there was one he would take it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend to anyone who is starting an embedded programming and needs ease of use and features. In addition people who do not want to spend too much, an IDE is free and an open project. Great for anyone looking for ease and simplicity in their projects.
Why this IDE?
What do you like best about the product?
The bundled examples are very helpful. The community around the software is always nice and helpful. I think it's probably one of the most supportive communities that I know. The software also runs pretty much everywhere, so that's a big plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface is a minimalist approach to whats needed for development tools. I understand that it falls more toward the hobbyist side, but if the goal is ease of use, make it easy to use with other IDEs as well. Both Jetbrains and VisualStudio offer great tools for working with C, why not build tools that are compatible with these?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've used Arduino for several kinds of different custom automation and integrating with hardware. Using this system over a $200 setup saved the department about $170 per install (Arduinos being about $30). You can also find off-brands for cheaper, but i don't mind supporting the creators.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its the right tool for certain kinds of jobs. Outside of that, its just fun to play around with.
Reduced interface and simple to use.
What do you like best about the product?
For simple and fast projects it is very easy to use. In my opinion, its best feature is its project library, where you can find all of your sketches.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it is just too reduced. There is no code overview and the debugger sometimes is a bit misterious.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Arduino IDE I create fast prototypes for interaction design researches.
Used for prototyping and basic electronic functions
What do you like best about the product?
Super simple to use! Sit down and learn the kit within a few days and then the tool is open to your imagination! I use it for basic prototyping of interfaces for product prototypes
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be tricky using add on kits figuring certain functions out following the learning period but youtube can save confusion
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can now demonstrate true electronic functionality in prototypes which is a great demonstration for clients to make concepts more clear
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product! I would hands down recommend for learning circuits and basic electronic functions
Great for beginners, less so as you advance
What do you like best about the product?
Arduino makes things easy. Like, really easy. You don't need to know that you're compiling C and getting it through the Atmel toolchain; you just hit "upload" and select your serial port and it works. It's' fantastic for beginners, and can be used to teach programming and electronics to people with no experience. The built-in libraries are useful and allow you to easily use common components (servos, LCD screens) without learning the details of the protocol yourself.
What do you dislike about the product?
Arduino makes it easy, but it comes at a cost. The IDE makes it very difficult to program anything advanced. It is difficult or impossible to use local libraries in a file (they have to be installed on the user's libraries folder, so no portable repos). When you compile a program, it rearranges your code before passing it to the C compiler, so you'll often come across mysterious compile errors that reference lines in a temp file that you can't see before it's destroyed. Organizing a larger project in the Arduino IDE is absolutely hellish, and I switched over to a NetBeans plugin for my advanced stuff.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Arduino to teach kids programming and electronics. The IDE is an integral part of that, because it gets kids using a "real" programming language, but hides away some of the messier details of compiler flags, etc. For that purpose, I think it's a good choice. It's certainly gentler than the "write in Notepad, compile on command-line" approach that I've seen taken with Java.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for teaching intro programming things or medium usage. Once you're familiar with the platform, awful for very large or complicated projects or anything with more than a few header files.
I have used Arduino for my own project
What do you like best about the product?
This is small yet effective platform for Arduino users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Crashes sometimes, but other than that, it is good
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used it for developing my own ARduino project
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool to newbies as well.
Good software for its purpose.
What do you like best about the product?
The things I like best about the Arduino IDE is that is is easy to find examples and use libraries from within the program itself, helping make the code more accessible to beginners.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the lack of customization and spellcheck, which makes it more difficult for those with vision problems or learning disabilities to access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been teaching Computer Science and Engineering using Arduinos and Lilypads for three years, and the students really respond to making a motor run or a light go on and off, so this program enables them to make this happen easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend saving code often and making templates to save and work from in the IDE.
