Worst platform available Awful company. The platform has so much potential but the company are awful to deal with. So I bought it at a very reasonable 50% off the annual price and the platform worked for maybe 2 days then totally stopped working. So I contacted support. They offered zero solution for me. I was ignored in 95% of my emails. I first wanted the issue resolved as I did feel the platform had potential but the issue was ignored. The platform literally did not work at all as in I could log in but it would not open any "container" to actually write code. Eventually I got a reply after an entire month pursuing an answer. I did get a refund in the end so I can't fault that. Later I made the stupid decision of coming back to check if they had worked on the issues so I paid for a 1 month subscription to see if the platform has improved because as I said I did feel it has potential. It had not. It still doesn't work on any of my laptops/computers and I reached out to support AGAIN and AGAIN I am without a response. This time around it is not such a big deal as I only paid 1 month to test but overall a very bad experience and a very bad company to deal with or try to get answers out of. In a market with so many competitors and most of them are free to use, I just don't see the point in using a platform with such consistent issues and such inconsistent support.

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 :)

Codeanywhere is a great services Codeanywhere is a great services. It enables me to work remotely without any worry. Additionally, it is nice to be able to edit files on my servers from a a nice GUI editor rather than sshing in and using the a command line editor.

Horrible customer support! I am a previous, numerous year subscriber to Codeanywhere but cancelled a couple years back due to company restrictions. I attempted to resubscribe using their in-house credit card form but the system declined my payment 4 seperate times over the course of a couple hours. I then used PayPal payment option and it worked perfectly. The next day I notice I was billed all 4 attempts to my credit card, even though the Codeanywhere control panel said it was declined and didn't activate my account. I reached out to their support staff explaining the problem and requesting the refund then literally got the response, "You're account is activated whats the problem?". I explained everything 1 more time in my response and have not received a reply in 10+ days. I now have to open a chargeback and dispute all 4 transactions because of this company's lack of support and functionality. Additionally they lost me as a subscriber. I would suggest avoiding Codeanywhere as Atom IDE with the Remote Editor plugin is completely free and also works very well.

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.
