From quick inline finds to massive replaces across your entire project, no one does search like UltraEdit. Find / replace across files, Perl regular expressions, column-based search, line filters, and more...when it comes to search, there's almost nothing UltraEdit can't do!
UltraEdit's text editing features make editing lists and columns an intuitive experience, not the exercise in tedium it used to be. With features like multi-caret editing, column/block editing and multi-select, it's a simple text editor when you want it to be, and a multi-cursor power editor when you need it to be.

Time to time I use the editor as an alternative to Sublime and VSCode. Yes, this editor really powerful, and much powerful then Sublime Text. The problem of the editor is the price. Luck of plugins/themes. It does the job really well, but some features what Sublime Text has over editor really annoying me (multiline search, displaying results of a search, and everything related to fast jumping/searching between files).

Another dog of an editor for large files (260MB) on a Mac. Still, for me, Mac Fiend is working best.

I am a long time user of UltraEdit. One of the neat things about UltraEdit is how configurable it it..... There are tons of settings for those that like to tweak. The defaults are great, but if you want to learn and do some powerful stuff the website had great tutorials and examples. If that is not enough direct email support is always fast.... Never had to wait forever hoping someone might respond like with other products.

You truly get what you pay for.

I'm a long-time user and think you get what you pay for. Though it has some quirks, it's a very power editor for both source code and very large text files.

I use UltraEdit as a text and HTML editor. It can be setup to colour code the HTML code and this makes code level editing much easier. Search and replace is about all I do with it so I can't speak about using it on programming code.

What is UltraEdit?

UltraEdit is a commercially maintained text and code editor built for critical work where performance, reliability, and security matter most. It is designed to handle demanding editing tasks, from very large files and complex datasets to code, logs, configuration files, and sensitive information.

With powerful search, column editing, file comparison, FTP/SFTP, hex editing, Git support, scripting, and other advanced tools built in, UltraEdit gives users a broad set of capabilities without having to rely heavily on third-party plugins. Backed by ongoing development, security hardening, and commercial support, it is a dependable choice when lightweight or community-maintained editors are not enough.

UltraEdit is used by individual professionals and data specialists, as well as IT teams and large organizations that need a reliable editor for more demanding or sensitive tasks.

It works equally well for a single user who wants a powerful all-in-one editor and for enterprises that need commercial support, centralized licensing, ongoing maintenance, and a dependable tool for business-critical workflows.
