## Reviews

### "Arduino is fun and easy to use" — 5.0/5

> **Dhaval** | *21 February 2025* | Defense & Space | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really like how simple it is to use this platform. The coding for this software is easy to learn and the hardware to implement is also fun to do.
> 
> **Cons**: I don’t like that sometimes I get an error in the program saying that the Arduino is not connected. It also freezes at times, and that’s when I need to restart the computer.
> 
> Overall, I really enjoy using this program because it’s a really easy way to code and build circuits that actually work. I really like how the windows on the program are displayed.

### "Arduino IDE" — 5.0/5

> **Griffin** | *23 February 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use with almost any official board, along with unofficial ones
> 
> **Cons**: It was a little rough to use until V2 came out
> 
> Pretty good, I liked the UI for the newer V2

### "Perfect platform for IoT enthusiast" — 5.0/5

> **Raj** | *1 October 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Arduino IDE is a User-friendly and perfectly structured IDE for the compilation of IoT and automation projects, All the essential features and libraries are pre-loaded and more available for further needs. Personally, one of the best features is quick compilation and uploading.
> 
> **Cons**: Arduino IDE is not often for newbies since it has no suggestions for syntax errors during code compilation. Also, the software developers should introduce a block code feature to enclose code snippets in a single block.
> 
> In my personal experience of over 4 years, I loved to use Arduino IDE and would also like to use it for more years as it has enough features to support developers to a good extent, and also it has a large number of supported libraries and has a user-friendly interface, it is one of the best IDE for IoT and automation projects, easy to understand and work on.

### "Essential tool for rapid development and testing on Arduino boards" — 5.0/5

> **Marios** | *15 December 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The example provided in combination with the library management tool for installing libraries and extensions for sensors makes development really easy and fast
> 
> **Cons**: A little better management of the boards as some are missing or the description is not very clear but this is understandable given the hundreds of arduino board variations that exist.
> 
> I have been using Arduino IDE to develop software for various kind of arduino boards and using several different sensors, like temperature, humidity, soil moisture, CO2 sensor, voltage and current etc. Our main use is to build automated controllers for managing equipment for fruit ripening and mushroom growing. We build several fail safe mechanisms and a web interface to manage the controllers and monitor all the sensors.
