QA Manager at Synechron
AI coding assistant has transformed development speed and supports learning new languages
Any technology comes with two things, or rather anything in this world has both sides, good and bad. LLMs also have the same thing. The bad part is for a person who is 100% dependent on AI because they won't be able to learn more if they are 100% dependent on that. The main thing is that there has to be restraint from our side. I won't say it is from the tool side, but from our side, we need to learn and we need to work on it. We need to review the code. That is one thing that we need to do from our end. From a technology perspective, it is designed to help us out, and it is totally on our side of thinking about how exactly we are going to use that. There is not any area for improvement from the tool side, but it is from the users altogether. Users should not be 100% reliant on AI or any LLMs. They need to work on it and they need to review the code.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I use it almost like a search engine, but it goes a step beyond."
"The document generation features are valuable."
"The solution's most valuable features are context awareness, multi language support, integration with popular IDs like Visual Studio Code or JetBrains, and reduced coding time."
"Copilot is highly recommended for everyone."
"I can upload code snippets or class files and ask for solutions to improve them, which works well. It's a great productivity tool that saves me time searching websites. While there are alternatives like ChatGPT and other AI tools, the advantage of the tool is that it is built into the IDE."
"For example, what I create in one day, GitHub Copilot can help me create in one or two hours."
"The product is easy to integrate."
"GitHub CoPilot has helped me become more productive and efficient with assignments and projects, allowing me to complete coding tasks faster, spend less time on repetitive work, and focus more on problem-solving and learning how new concepts work."
"It’s easier, more controlled and automatized checks of the budget through this system."
"We use it a lot for creating workflows to transfer materials between plants, which is a signature part of what we do."
"Took few hours to build workflows with ready-to-use templates, so we had improved productivity."
 

Cons

"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It would be useful if we could use the solution to create documents, not only prompts."
"GitHub CoPilot should be integrated with different IDEs beyond VS Code, as it is currently only supported by VS Code."
"The tool needs to focus on integration, as it is the most important aspect. I would like to see some pre-designed modules included in my projects."
"The technology offered by the product in the retail industry and banking processes has certain shortcomings, making them areas that can be improved."
"The suggestions provided by the product must be improved."
"They could enhance the product's accuracy of suggestions, especially when dealing with non-standard or legacy code."
"While I don't see immediate room for improvement, one suggestion is for Copilot to provide specific suggestions for certain lines of code instead of rewriting entire sections."
"The reports for users. The reports with more details; we have to generate them by the database."
"Yes, for email notification but it could also be with company network."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"GitHub CoPilot comes readily available for enterprise customers, so it's a free add-on if you already have GitHub's enterprise license."
"There is a need to pay around 10 USD to be able to use the solution."
"GitHub CoPilot's pricing is reasonable. Our licensing costs were initially monthly, but then we switched to yearly payments. I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."

"The solution is costly."
"GitHub Copilot is a paid service, costing approximately $6 per month. There might be a free trial available."
"Each user needs their license, whether it's a big team or a small team."
