Testimonials
"As CEO of a fast growing technology company, my development tools need to strike a balance between raw power and automation. With a business to run, I don't have time to bang out every single line of code in notepad. On the other hand, I don't need a bunch of wizards getting in the way. Webuilder strikes this balance perfectly. Most important of all, the guys at Bluementals understand that real time tweaks via FTP are a simple fact of life for online business and they built their tools to handle this elegantly. The big guys will throw in everything but the kitchen sink, but always seem to botch this very basic but crucial necessity. Hats off to Blumentals for getting it right."
Donavon Guyot, CEO, TrainingPeaks.com
"WeBuilder is one of those invaluable tools that makes a web designers life so much easier. It loads in seconds, supports all the popular file and coding types, has a user friendly interface (unlike many other editors) and is simply a pleasure to use every day. For my money it knocks the spots off of editors costing hundreds of dollars! Keep up the fantastic work!"
Rob Allen, Freelance web designer, www.blue-dreamer.co.uk
"Just wanted to praise your great tool. Yes it indeed helps me my jobs done faster. I looked at all the PHP editors in the market. But they are either clumsy or full of bugs or have one major bug or don't seem to be really supported anymore or are much more expensive. Thanks for creating such a valuable tool at such an affordable price. Keep up the excellent work!"
Marco De Luca, De Luca Marketing
"Your WeBuilder has left every other web application in the dust. There are so many killer features in your product, I find myself instinctively using functionality that I didn't know you included. Great product. A benchmark for all software applications!"
John Zavocki, Freelance designer & developer, www.johnzavocki.com
"We have been building websites for more than 10 years. WeBuilder 2008 has sorted out all the issues we had with previous versions of Blumentals' HTML editors. It is now superior to any other editor regardless of price - and we have looked at them all. We will be using the software on all our workstations just as soon as we can wean our coders off their high priced addiction to other brands."
Chris Berkeley, Netmastery Pty Limited, Australia
"I've evaluated a number of programs to edit XHTML, CSS and PHP files. My search ended when I found WeBuilder by Blumentals software. Packed with a host of design tools, this affordable editor is all you need to complete your next web site project."
Jim Jacobus, J-Tech Web Solutions
"Just a quick note to say thank you for WeBuilder 2008. WeBuilder 2006 became such an integral part of my everyday life as Web Manager for the University of St Andrews that I upgraded to 2007 the moment I got your email, and I have to say that I'm not disappointed. Incidentally, the code for the new University website design was done entirely in WeBuilder 2006. I used to use 1st Page 2000, but switched in 2005 and have never looked back. I'm delighted and will look forward to finding other treats in store for me -- I'm always finding new things with WeBuilder. I'll often think: I wish it did x, y or z, and discover to my delight that it does. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Gareth J M Saunders, Web Manager, University of St Andrews
"I have painstakingly tried out every web development package out there, spending probably 15 hours over the last three days downloading, installing, adjusting, and subsequently uninstalling everything from Quanta, Bluefish, jEdit, PSPad, KomodoEdit, NotePad++ and HTML-Kit to Dreamweaver, Aptana, phpEclipse, and Zend Studio. Yours is bar none the best in the league. I feel as though you knew exactly what I wanted in a PHP/XHTML/CSS/JS IDE and wrote it just for me. There are features I wouldn't even have thought of thrown in there too."
Jonathan Church, HP Web Solutions
"First, let me say that I now use Webuilder and could not be happier with it; it does everything I need and better than other products (I have been using Hotdog Pro but no more). I tried Dreamweaver but the learning curve is way too steep. Also, I prefer software that serves ME instead of me having to serve IT."
Arthur Little, United States
"I work primarily with XHTML, CSS, and PHP, and WeBuilder 2006 is my editor of choice. While WeBuilder 2006 is already a great piece of software, Blumentals works tirelessly to improve this product, frequently releasing updates and acknowledging user requests for support and features. I'm extremely happy to have found it."
Eric Barstad, Shadow Box Creative Media
"I have been building websites for almost 10 years. I have tried many editors, sticking mostly to Homesite® 5.x. I came across your solution today, and was blown away. Really, you have done almost all I could think of. Congrats on a wonderful editor."
Bob Cruickshank, Professional Web Developer, 72Bits
"I just wanted to thank you for such a GREAT product. I have been a user of WeBuilder for a little over a year and have found it to be indispensable for changes to everything dealing with the websites I maintain. I mainly use it for changes to CSS sheets and find it the most complete and feature rich program I've found for this purpose, and believe me, I've tried a lot of them. It is also great to have the additional support for HTML, PHP, etc. when I need it. Keep up the good work! You've got a happy customer here for life."
Robert Smith, Professional Web Developer, www.orionizer.com
"I have HTMLPad and now WeBuilder for the last 3 or 4 years. I have become quite dependent on it. To me it is the best application of it's kind on the market. I've tried quite a few and no others have the power, flexibility and value WeBuilder offers. As with all great applications there are usually several ways to achieve a task so that one can choose what suits best."
Robert Sinclair, United Kingdom
"As a freelance web builder, I'm always on the look out for affordable tools that help me get my job done better and more efficiently. I've found both qualities in Webuilder and Blumentals Software I've used Webuilder since 2005 and must say that with each release it becomes better and better. It has even replaced Dreamweaver as my primary editor. With support for PHP, ASP, Javascript, CSS and now with the new version, a built-in server and support for Ruby-on-Rails, it is THE editor of choice."
Erik Heyl, Freelance Web Developer, Canada
"Just wanted to say that WeBuilder is absolutely the best XHTML/CSS/PHP editor I have ever worked with (and I've worked with half a dozen others for the past 6 years)."
Carsten Altena from Netherlands
"I have already purchased the upgrade, and am still quite impressed with how comprehensive WeBuilder is. WeBuilder and Photoshop® are the cornerstones of my work environment - couldn't imagine working a day without them."
Jake Harrison, Promachina Design
"I like the software a lot - everything I need and more!"
Kay C. Tien, Clarity Connect, Inc.
"I just wanted to let you know that you still make the best web editor around. I bought the update to WeBuilder 2006 and I'm still learning the new stuff you have added. Keep up the good work and you have a life long happy customer."
Scott Murray
"Thank you for having developed such an excellent product. I selected WeBuilder after having evaluated MANY competing products, and it helped me to build my website."
David Caplan, Freelance Writer, www.thotwerx.com
"WeBuilder 2006 and HTMLPad 2006. These are two of the best products I have found on the market. They both have the best Interface of any I have seen or used. You have really touched on the usability of both the novice and professional web site builders. Thank you for keeping things streamlined, understandable and powerful."
Claude Callender, United States
Simply Great. Since using WeBuilder 2006 my development of sites has become faster and easier. I am by no means a guru, but after trying several (pretty good) pieces of software, I have to say WeBuilder 2006 beats them hands down for me. Keep up the great work.
Mike Cocklin, Web Design & Support, www.expensys.com
"I've been using WeBuilder for over a year now for developing PHP, HTML and Javascript applications in the healthcare field.
The coding environment is first class and sets the standard for clarity, ease of use, productivity and configurability. The tag inspector is a great example of this. You have instant access to all tags and their attributes and the possible values for these attributes. You actually need to do very little typing but remain in absolute control of the code. There are dozens of features that make editing existing pages a snap.
Of equal importance to the great features is the fact that Blumentals really listens to what his customers say. I once posted on the support forum pleading for a full file path in the coding window. I'm sure others had also asked for this. Anyway, a couple of days later there was an update with this feature built in.
People quite often ask me if I know of a good free HTML editor, but I always tell them to get WeBuilder. There _are_ some worthy freeware tools out there, but at about thirty quid for the commercial licence, I'd say this was having your cake and eating it. WeBuilder is an ergonomic gem."
Mark Davenport, Project Manager, Etiam SA
"I am a web developer in the UK and have been using FrontPage for several years. Need to move on from FrontPage and your WeBuilder looks to be simply the best on the market - nothing else even comes close. Congratulations."
VJ Stretton, Local Internet Solutions, UK
"When I came across WeBuilder in somebody's forum who were talking about editors I am glad that I looked into it. I never heard of it before. I immediately licensed it and am now going to use WeBuilder in place of what I was using."
Robert Desko, Webmaster, illegal-credit-scores.com
"I have been evaluating editors for a couple weeks and I have to say that yours is the best. Though the other ones had their own cool features, WeBuilder overall can't be matched. If you had any more coding tool features, the thing would be just writing my code for me. Thanks for a great all-around editor. After I go on the website and buy my license right now, you really should up your prices and get paid well for your hard work and care for us coders. I would easily pay double your current price for this."
