I've been a user for over 10 years I've been a user for over 10 years - whenever I need to spin up a new demo, prototype or just a playground to try out a feature or two, Codeanywhere is my go-to platform. I haven't needed always-on features much of the time but when I do, I flex my subscription to accommodate my needs. There are plenty of imitators but Codeanywhere is the one for me.

Incredible slow I study Full-stack-development and my uni switched from a Gitpod to Codeanywhere. It's terrible! Slow, laging all the time and if I succeed to load workspace is a big win. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

No Support after their site SSL expired No Support after their site SSL expired. At the moment, we cannot use their platform due to this inconvenience. What bothers me most, no support acknowledge the situation.

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]

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.
