“Efficiency Improvements Observed, But Large Projects Cause Noticeable Slowdowns”
Overall experience has been great, have been using Windsurf for a couple of months now. The efficiency has increased tremendously after introducing it. There's still some room for refinement but worth 4 stars.

“Does it better than peers, but agentic coding isn't all there; in more ways than one.”
The concept is great. Execution falls somewhat flat because of the underlying issues with LLMs. Inability to consistently deliver good results. Struggles with large context for existing legacy systems. Homegrown agents deliver poorer results than general models.

At times, the performance slows down when working with larger projects due to large heap size consumption, which makes the entire agent slow.

Understanding Codebase Made Easy Though Agentic Mode Context Control Is Limited
Good understanding of the codebase; automatic workspace scope in agentic AI mode can be either good or bad depending on the enterprise's cost strategies. - Software Developer<50M USDIT ServicesReview Source
Powerful Coding Features Noted but Subscription and Support Issues Impact Teams
My overall experience with Windsurf has been outstanding. It significantly boosted my productivity and simplified my workflow. I no longer have to juggle multiple extensions or constantly switch to external tools . Everything is built-in, intuitive, and fast. The support team was also incredibly helpful and generous when I faced an issue during the trial period. That level of customer care really stood out to me. - SOFTWARE DEVELOPER50M-1B USDSoftwareReview Source
