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.

Poor customer service Due to a change in circumstances, I've not been using CodeAnywhere. They send no notification that the renewal is approaching (unlike more professional companies, some that give multiple warns 3 months in advance). I contacted them as soon as I realised they'd renewed. They cancelled the renewal and the service I'd just been charged for, but now refuse to issue a refund! So now I'm in a situation where I don't have the service they collected the renewal for - they've effectively just stolen the money from me! [further to posting this, CodeAnywhere decided that they could make the refund after all! So if you experience the same problem, don't give up - maybe draw attention to the issue and maybe they'll stop bullying customers]

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.

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.

Useful Isolated Containers Containers in Codeanywhere provide for an isolated development environment where I could access across devices. The service is seamless and I can code even on my Chromebook. A new editor based on Theia IDE has been launched and it is compatible with Visual Studio Code. The support team was prompt in responding to my queries and resolving the issues faced.
