Assistant Professor Computer Software ### "Wing Python IDE: A Much Intelligent IDE than Existing Solutions" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 August 10, 2023 Great experience that makes developing in Python with its plethora of libraries very rapid and integrated. I would definitely prefer it over PyCharm in many different development domains even in the field on socket and client/server programming. Pros I have switched to Wing Python IDE after using PyCharm for several years. It seems that this IDE is so well designed to make the development much easier with code autocompletion and a very elegant debugger. Python has a lot of libraries in many different domains. I used it for developing home automation software, scientific computing, AI and ML model development and training, in addition to designing client/server solution. What makes Wing great is that once you import the needed libraries, code auto completion becomes so graceful and make the development very efficient and rapid. It is very fancy in terms of hierarchically presenting the code layers which makes debugging and even team work much more productive. One of the best IDEs for Python with a trial version and a cost effective pro version. Cons Definitely would have been happier to have a free version for the pro features. But this is totally justified considering the amazing code development features available in Wing. Some crashes and hangs are experienced from time to time but not a big deal considering the intelligent code editor, debugger, and unit testing features Switched from [PyCharm](https://www.capterra.com/p/186625/PyCharm/) Intelligent editor with better code completion. Faster debugging and unit testing. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Also thanks for your purchase of Wing Pro! Without those sales, Wing would not exist at all. Houyamne A. UX Designer Marketing and Advertising ### "Perfect IDE for writting simple and complex codes" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 18, 2023 It helps us to build simple and complex codes without any problems and freely. Pros I prefer Wing Python over many others because it supports both simple and complex codes in nature. It's a target-driven IDE which means "it's goal-oriented and performs only specific tasks".I don't trust multi or can-do-all-by-themselves coding software as they are never perfect in anything.Wing Python IDE enables us to write Python minified codes without hassles. It's code-centric and serves its purpose perfectly.We do not really use it for debugging, however, we use it to conduct simple verification across our projects and sometimes for testing (where necessary).It automatically indents my lines of code and shows proof of its smart and collaborative nature and it's also beginner friendly. Cons To my knowledge, There is no feature that needs improvement for now. Switched from [PyCharm](https://www.capterra.com/p/186625/PyCharm/) Not flexible, I have to always switch between tabs and either the theme is too light or dark. I don't even enjoy the overall coding experience. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Studente universitario Information Technology and Services ### "Ottimo IDE Python" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 July 17, 2023 Durante i miei studi universitari mi è capitato di utilizzare Wing Phyton IDE per un mio progetto e, alla fin dei conti, la mia esperienza è stata positiva.Essendo esperiente in materia, ho visto l'enorme potenzialità che questo prodotto ha da offrire ma riconosco che per i meno esperti possa risultare caotico. Risulta un piacere programmare in quanto il debugger è sempre preciso e ti aiuta molto a capire dove stai sbagliando. Inoltre con l'autocompletamento puoi anche risparmiare tempo nel scrivere codice. Promosso. Pros Interfaccia utente semplice e intuitiva che rende semplice la navigazione tra i file e le funzionalità dell'IDE. Strumento di debug abbastanza potente e molto preciso per individuare errori nel codice. Cons Sul mio computer risulta molto pesante. Per i meno esperti può risultare confusionario all'inizio.

Response from Vendor July 18, 2023 Thanks for the review! Wing shouldn't feel heavy (as in sluggish) although it may initially consume a fair amount of CPU until it has finished finding and analysing Python code in your project and on the Python Path. If that persists, please contact us at support@wingware.com and we can provide instructions for diagnosing what is causing it. Also, for the less experienced we recommend going through either the Guide Start Guide or Tutorial to get an idea of the feature set. A lot of it can be ignored until needed, but it's good to get an intro to the basics and also know what is there. Thanks again! MC Milton C.
