Great product, terrible refund policy I've used Codeanywhere for years and recently switched jobs where using it for my work would no longer be viable. They sent no receipt of payment or reminder that my account would be renewed, but withdrew the money all the same. Not a problem I thought, but their policy is no refunds after 7 days of creating the account (not making a payment) and because I've used the service for several years, I'm now out that money. Very dissapointed.

Top Web-Based Coding Platform I have been using the Codeanywhere platform for over 7 years now, originally as a free tier member and then as a subscriber, and there has never been a viable alternative that does anything close to what Codeanywhere achieves. Web-based coding makes it easy to manage projects and collaborate on them with others, work directly with FTP or SSH connections, and allows me to share a live link to my container, which is everything I need. Early impressions of the new Theia-based IDE are that it looks like a massive improvement to a platform that already was amazing. Will be continuing to use Codeanywhere as my main IDE for all my web development programming.

No Support and Scam Refund Policy They used to offer a wide variety of preconfigured installations or I could reliably install whatever I wanted on a generic container, but recently the offerings are sharply limited and flexibility to install is curtailed. This is no longer useful. Thinking it might be a memory issue, I upgraded my plan to try a larger container but the problem persisted. Within a day I had figured out that it wasn't going to work for me and closed the account and requested a refund of my upgrade fee (well within their refund window). They initially confirmed a refund would be forthcoming, but when nothing happened they said the person responsible was away for a few days but that it would happen soon. Now, almost a month past the original charge I have yet to receive any refund and they are no longer responding to inquiries. Update: Posting to trustpilot does get their attention and a refund was finally posted. Let's add one star to their review in recognition and five stars for trustpilot :)

Better than an inhouse test environment Codeanywhere allows me to set up a test environment in seconds and access it from anywhere. It saves me a lot of time spent in setting up those environments locally. It is also a valuable asset in online training, allowing me to work with environments that I may not have access to locally. It's a valuable and reliable tool for any programmer.

Totally frustrating experience It may be 'code anywhere', but surely not 'code any time'... IDE is super slow and I'm all the time experiencing technical issues that are affecting my projects. I am facing deadlines and cannot even access my workspace.
