UltraEdit overview

What is UltraEdit?

UltraEdit is a cross-platform text and code editor built for your most critical work. It gives professionals a powerful environment for working with very large files, complex text and structured data, remote systems, and security-sensitive workflows—all in one commercially maintained application.

When everyday editors begin to struggle with file size or task complexity, UltraEdit is designed to keep working. It can open and edit files larger than 10 GB and provides advanced search and replace, regular expressions, column and block editing, sorting and reformatting, macros, hex editing, file comparison, and other tools for transforming text and data efficiently. Built-in FTP, SFTP, and FTPS also allow users to access and edit files on remote systems without relying on a separate client.

UltraEdit is equally suited to individual professionals and organizations. Developers and IT teams can use it for code, configuration files, logs, scripts, and remote administration. Data professionals can use column editing, search, sorting, and formatting tools to work with large or structured text datasets. Organizations can use UltraEdit in business-critical and sensitive workflows where commercially maintained software, local file processing, offline activation options, and access to professional support are important.

UltraEdit is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and is built to remain useful as workloads become larger and more demanding. It brings performance, advanced editing, remote file access, and commercial support together in one editor for the work that matters most.

“Split screen editing between 2 or more files is not intuitive and can be difficult to consistently get the affect you are trying to get.”

“The tool is very costly even for personal use and this is a major drawback. When working on larger projects, the tool keeps hanging and becomes slow.”
