About

Professional collaborative platform for embedded development. PlatformIO is a next-generation, collaborative platform for embedded development that enables customers to save resources and time by vastly reducing the expenses and labor associated with creating and maintaining product software. We believe the embedded systems industry desperately needs reinvention. Not only are the IDEs and tools built with technology from the 1990s, but they involve many complex requirements and platform-dependent configurations that turn away talented developers from becoming embedded engineers. The most loved IDE solution for Microsoft Visual Studio Code. A user-friendly and extensible integrated development environment with a set of professional development instruments, providing modern and powerful features to speed up yet simplify the creation and delivery of embedded products. PlatformIO is written in pure Python and doesn't depend on any additional libraries/tools from an operation system.

Pros from Real Users

Pros

  • - Support - Flexibility - Many options available - Stable environment - Reporting - Always improving
  • My experience with Parasoft C/C++test has been one of genuine amazement. The software saved me months of work, and many of the issues and corrections it identified were problems I would most likely not have detected or resolved by myself.
  • After 13 years managing Parasoft's License Server and DTP at enterprise scale, the infrastructure is genuinely exceptional. Zero critical failures across countless deployments. License Server performance remains consistent whether managing 10 or 500 concurrent users. DTP's data aggregation is rock-solid—never experienced data loss or corruption. Upgrade processes are predictable and low-risk. Installation is straightforward with legitimate prerequisites. Support understands the infrastructure perspective, not just end-user testing. This platform is built for the long haul.
  • • Parasoft provides broad support for a variety of programming languages (C, C++, Java, Python, etc.), making it versatile for a variety of development environments • It integrates with a wide range of development tools, including CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins), version control systems (e.g., Git), and IDEs (e.g., Eclipse, Visual Studio): static analysis can be performed either in the IDE (Eclipse, Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio, etc.) or in the command-line interface (for automation/continuous integration scenarios) • It focuses on enhancing software quality through a combination of static and dynamic analysis (e.g. runtime analysis, memory analysis) • It verifies compliance with several standards (e.g., MISRA, AUTOSAR, ISO 26262, Cyber Security rules) and with custom coding rules • Configuration and building process is facilitated by the automatic generation of a “build data file” (bdf) • Very well skilled engineers provide great technical support for tool setup and usage
  • Integration with GitLab made it easy to automate static code analysis through projects. The UI is intuitive, and onboarding was quick for team members. Great for compliance-heavy environments
  • The support of this product was fantastic. They were able to walk through the rich feature set with ease.
  • Parasoft was easier to set up than any of the other SCA tools we tested. It allows for a lot of customization.
  • I like the documentation for setting up. For the most part it is straightforward, the viewing of the results was my favorite part. The plethora of different type of information that it gives is really beneficial and it gives you your choice of what kind of rule set to run against. Giving you the customizability.
  • + Built-in rule sets for Medical, Aerospace, and Automotive + Powerful configuration of scope and test execution + Ability to write custom rules using existing ones as templates + PDF and interactive HTML report generation + Virtual machine provided during training for quick learning
  • Ease of initial setup with GUI tool. Quick and thorough support from support team when facing difficulties.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • This works with all MCUs supported by my Company except TMS320 series. The IDE gives us a consistent look and feel between processors and compilers. The documentation is excellent.

Cons

  • If I had to find a con it is that some of the TMS320 is not supported.
