Native IDE unlike Eclipse. Fast auto complete. Integrates to GDB for debugging and SVN for code versioning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qt?

It does crash once in a while. It does do an auto save so it is not too bad Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"QT Creator, an IDE based on the Qt application framework"

4/5

What do you like best about Qt?

Qt Creator's interface is clean and easy to understand. It has all the tools you need for console output, debugging, tracebacks and also includes useful functionality for jumping between functions and their definitions, and also between source and header files. The debugging and traceback functionality is extremely useful when trying to find where a problem lies in your code. You can easily set breakpoints and jump to the section of code you believe is causing the problem and see the local variables and their contents in real-time. The UI/form designer is a huge time saver when building complex interfaces, such things would require time-consuming manual XML entry by hand otherwise. You can also preview any UI you design by pressing alt+shift+R which is helpful when testing out how the sizing options of the window will work and how it will affect your controls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qt?

It can occasionally crash, but this is fairly rare. Making sure you have the latest version on Linux can be a bit tricky if you're using a software manager, usually best to grab it from the website if you can. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Qt:

I'd recommend Qt Creator as a good quality, low-cost multi-platform IDE. I've certainly used worse! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Qt solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Qt Creator to program our core application and it's form designed to build the GUI interface. The form builder is especially helpful and time saving for building the complex user interfaces we need. Qt Creator also allows you to easily decide which libraries and compilers you wish to use, and you can easily save these settings in their own profiles for easy switching Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best platform to develop an application "

4.5/5

What do you like best about Qt?

Qt Creator is a cross-platform C++, JavaScript and QML integrated development environment. What I like most is the huge range of possibilities that this platform offers: It includes a visual debugger, default compilers and lots of libraries that makes it really easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qt?

On the other hand, what I like least about Qt creator is the lack of updates in their own libraries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Qt:

I recommend Qtcreator to other programmers since this tool is really powerful and they will get really good results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Qt solving and how is that benefiting you?

Thanks to the Qt creator platform we have been able to develop different applications of predictive analytics, obtaining great results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great software for User Interface Design"

4/5

What do you like best about Qt?

Sometime I have to go through the web and get the information of all the pre-defined properties and methods Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"More than an IDE, it's everything you need"

5/5

What do you like best about Qt?

The Qmake system is really reliable, I used it for many projects, even complex ones and it's really simple to link multiple projects, to create test versions, especially with Qt Test. Moreover, it's compatible with almost everything, and allows to use qt really easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qt?

I feel it weird that the search engine (to search a word in files or to find a file) is not more obvious to find. It's not easy to find in the interface, in visual studio it's very intuitive, reliable and fast. The interface personnalisation is quite poor and it's not especially easy to configure all the settings. Moreover, it's not easy to share your settings with others or simple with another desktop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Qt:

Qt is suited for every type of project. For very small ones ( like exercises for school ) or for big ones ( a complete project with multiple dependencies ). It's free for a personal or a student use so it stays very practical. It is particularly suited for Graphical User Interfaces ( GUI ) and of course, for Qt development. Don't overlook Qt Creator for Android development as it has a brand new support in that matter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Qt solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed to create a user interface and qt is clearly the framework to look for. It has a an enormous support, and a graphical design interface. It's Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Non starter"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Qt?

Qt Creator is a product I was able to download once I had a license. It had no additional cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qt?

I have not yet discovered how to create a project with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Qt:

As with any new API, most of the documentation that I find assumes that I already can read their minds. I struggle to determine the basic information that other documentation writers deem to "go without saying". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Qt solving and how is that benefiting you?

Creating a GUI app as a frontend for a process-intensive task so that a non-technical person could use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The most advanced Linux C++ IDE"

5/5

What do you like best about Qt?

It's a wonderful IDE to use for developing C++ applications, let alone developing with Qt. It's comparable to Visual Studio on Windows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Qt?

No global menu support on Ubuntu. It also needs better built in support for ccache. Editing pro files can be tricky cross platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
