The increase in productivity I got from the interactive debugging environment in
Komodo IDE probably saved me more than the purchase price within 48 hours. This is a quality product.

I just finished up my first major project using Komodo and
I cannot believe did not use it earlier! After using Zend Studio and Eclipse to develop LAMP applications,
Komodo is hands down the best cross platform development IDE.
— Derek Ellis
I appreciate your realistic licensing—I paid for my own copy and I use it at home on my Linux desktop, on my laptop, and here at my day job. I just
used Komodo to build the application installer for our Windows-based app
http://IncidentView.com/ and am building the data installer for it
now.Komodo is one of the two pieces of software I willingly pay money for
and recommend to colleagues.

I'm a long time user of the Komodo IDE from ActiveState, and it kindly
shows you the comment immediately preceding a function you type, in a
tooltip as you provide parameters. Being able to see what parameters
your method is expecting, what it returns, and any gotchas about using
it without opening the file containing the class, saves a lot of time
during development. Those kinds of comments I consider to be required.

Komodo is intuitive, responsive, and full featured. In the 20 years that I've been developing software, this is one of the best IDEs I've ever used.

Suffice to say with Komodo I got
local and remote debugging up and running within just a couple hours,
and it's been a total dream to use.

I've been a Komodo customer for almost five years,
and couldn't imagine using another editor for my work with dynamic languages.
Komodo IDE syntax highlights and auto-completes my Perl, Ruby, XML, SQL, HTML and CSS,
allowing my team to write better code more quickly than we ever have.
Version 4.1 added Ruby on Rails support that went beyond my expectations,
including the ability to create databases directly from the YAML file.
With the addition of soft characters and automatic updates in version 4.2, things are only getting better.

I'd rather use Komodo than other IDEs.
Komodo is easier to use and easier to configure and works the way I want it.
Python support is great.

So you're a Web application developer? Developing in Perl, Python, PHP, Ruby or JavaScript? Are you a Linux, Mac or Windows user? No matter what your choices are, the answer is ActiveState's Komodo IDE 4.0, an impressive cross-platform and cross-language environment for building Web applications. And oh yeah, it's a really great tool that makes working in all these languages a breeze.

We started using Komodo for our hundreds of thousands of Perl code lines. We love the fact that with Komodo IDE 4.1 we can also use it for Ruby.

If you work in any of the languages Komodo supports, you owe it to yourself to examine it (for free). If you work in any two of them, you probably should just buy it.

We use Komodo IDE and the Perl Dev Kit to build our internal systems.
They save us an amazing amount of time and effort.

Komodo IDE 4.0 is the Swiss army knife of scripting languages and web
development. With the addition of integrated JavaScript debugging,
HTML/XML/CSS auto-completion, an integrated HTTP protocol inspector, an
integrated DOM inspector, and a handful of other nifty tools, it's quite
possibly the coolest thing to happen to scripting languages since, well,
ever.

Kudos for adding XML catalogs to Komodo 4.0. I am really impressed!

I really dig Komodo's toolbox; it's the coolest thing. It's great to have
an editor that you can just extend like that, and share your extensions with the
team—quickly, without having to write full-on plugins.

I am a Mac addict, and on Mac OS X, I code
with Komodo. I love Komodo's clean, integrated UI, the compact and usable
project navigation bar, the ability to see code structure, and support for CVS
and Subversion, and I was able to create a macro five minutes after
installation! I am delighted with the capabilities. Komodo is the best IDE for
scripting languages.

Komodo doesn't just act as an IDE for Python
but is also a very accomplished Perl, PHP, and Tcl IDE providing all the
standard features like code highlighting and folding along with code completion.
The Rx Toolkit is so advanced it could quite easily be a mini standalone app as
it provides not only matching of text and highlighting but also shows the data
that would appear in the various group matches.

I use Perl constantly, and have to say that not only is Komodo the best
editor I have ever used for Perl scripts, it's the best editor I've used for
any language.

Komodo has saved us a lot of time with its interactive debugging feature for
Perl.

Komodo is a great product. My favourite feature is the regex
generator/tester. It's saved me heaps of time and aggravation when coming up
with complicated regular expressions to get through weblogs and the like.

Komodo has been a lifesaver. I've never been a big IDE user but now I
understand why a good IDE and a debugger are so important.

Great product, excellent service turnaround times. Komodo is my new IDE of
choice!

I love Komodo. I spend about seven hours a day on it, and I think it's great. I use it for Perl, JavaScript, CSS, HTML, XML, Python, PHP, C/C++, SQL and Java. I even use it just to write plaintext files.

I love Komodo! I have been using it for over two years, and upgrade every
time a new version is available. Komodo has always been very useful for me,
but I also appreciate the new features and enhancements. Thanks.
