The first software I ask for at every company

“Great performance. Tons of features have been added over the years, and the user interface modernized, but it has never seemed bloated or slow. Column editing, customizable syntax highlighting, code folding, split-screen editor, RegExp search & replace in files — it has everything I need.

UltraEdit is the first software I ask for at every company I have worked at and I recommend to all my coworkers. I have been using UltraEdit since version 6, and it is at version 25 now.”

Powerful code editing – on Windows, Apple OSX, or Linux!

stars06/27/2018

I’m a developer and hop from Windows to Apple’s OSX, to Linux on a daily basis. I chose Ultraedit years ago because it’s a powerful editing environment that works the same on all the operating systems I use. That makes me far more productive. It’s fast, easily handles projects with hundreds of files to open, has powerful find/replace/macros, syntax highlighting, skinning, etc, and unique features like column mode editing. It’s stable (no crashing), and reliable. Also, the support staff is helpful and responsive.

“If you need to view files and find out information in them, this is the product for you. You can see tabs, line endings and page breaks. You can switch from ASCII to other format, such as EBCIDIC. You can see individual bytes and even see the text out to the side. This is a perfect editor for viewing the data the way you want it.”

There are developers that cram as many features as they can into their software and end up with half-baked (and buggy) results. UltraEdit is feature-rich, and all of it is well done. ”

I love column mode. I also like hex mode. Overall this is a fantastic editor… the fact that I can use the same editor on any operating system is amazing. I have, multiple times, over the years contacted IDM about issues with UltraEdit. They have always been extremely responsive and work to resolve my issues. The two features I use most are hex mode and column mode. These alone make it worthwhile, but the continuous work towards making the product better and listening to customers are key reasons I bought a lifetime license and have never regretted it.

UltraEdit allowed me to edit huge text files in an extremely fast and efficient manner

reviews10/05/2016

“Presence of undesired characters result in undesired behavior by the software processing HL7 messages. I was using UltraEdit to view and edit HL7 Messages. UltraEdit’s ability to display non-printable characters in the exact positions was fast and efficient, even when I was opening huge text files. ”

UltraEdit, the name says it all, probably the best, most powerful editor there is

reviews 04/15/2019

“One of my favorite features is the way it allows me to work with my server logs. It allows me to search and replace (when needed) using regular expressions which is a blessing when working with something like logs.The fact that it allows me to hide several lines and preferably delete them is a blessing as the logs are huge and most of the data is not needed. It almost works as a report generation tool for me. TLDR: It allows me to get from Data to Information to Knowledge thus helping me make well informed decisions. The file compare mode also is a great feature when minor differences need to be spotted.”

“It is the world’s most powerful text editor. Most people don’t have to deal with basic ASCII text anymore. The column wise formatting and synchronized scrolling are so crucial to my job as engineer a day does not go by without using UltraEdit. It is a basic text editor with the power of an Airbus A380. ”

Best editor for FEM analysts

stars 06/07/2018

“I am an analysis engineer and I normally work with a lot of code, i.e. input for different FEM softwares. Moreover, I have to handle huge output files. Ultraedit is the best choice to handle with different file format and data and helps me minimizing the mistakes. At first, I did not think that the choice of an editor could be so important, but now I can only recommend it to all other analysts. I also like a lot that the support answers always immediately and kindly to every request. This does not happen with other editors.”

“I have been using Ultra Edit and UE studio for about 12 years now. Frankly it has been the only option if you want ot open files from the many types of platforms I have been exposed to. Particularly a former workplace that did a gradual decommision of software on it’s mainframe(MVS) and critically customer data was sent in EBCDIC, so when ezyedit on the MF bit the dust this was the only show…”

“What do I like best? The unlimited capacity has to be the first think I mentioned. But the speed at which the software handles so much data has to be my favorite thing about it. I’ve edited files with 10’s of millions of lines. The powerful search tool and column mode are also personal favorites.”

“I’ve found the Ultraedit software to quite useful. I’m no techie myself but have found some very useful uses with Ultraedit empowering me to make advanced edits and changes to data that I wouldn’t have been able to otherwise do without lots of manual edits and menial work. I’ve found the function to remove duplicates in text pads particularly useful as well as the ability to run custom scripts. best, Guido http://www.financialtrading.com/”

By far the best option when dealing with large text files

reviews 04/18/2017

“It can easily handle large text files (I have opened 15gb text files), searching, editing, replacing is extremely quick and easy – even on a laptop. I use it daily to review portions of large ETL setups and make sure our logic is being implemented as planned. We also use it to write / edit scripts. We love the performance, stability and feature set of Ultraedit. We have looked for other products and crashes come often, but not Ultraedit, when dealing with very large text files.”

Best text editor I’ve ever used.

review 01/18/2018

“I like the simplicity of the basic interface, with the power of being able to customize macros and perform redundant tasks automatically with one keyboard click. I can edit HUGE files and perform complex manipulation that saves me hours and hours of work. The backup on save feature has saved my butt several times when I’m using it for code when I’ve made a mistake, allowing me to backtrack several steps. tl;dr Get this product. Their customer support is just incredible. They’re always responsive and friendly. In the years I’ve used it, I’ve only stumped them once or twice with extremely complex problems.”
