If you want your Eclipse to be taken over by lots of corporate branding on top of buggy code that may, at random times hose your entire projects direotory, then this is the plug in to get. As special bonus feature is the hard-wired hard-sell of their "cloud" hosting and their "pro" version. I am not sure what sort of "pros" use it, unless "pro" is now synonymous with "sucker."

This gets 7 for features and 1 for the spam/adware that comes with it. Some other users have also mentioned that the company is working too hard to push its other products and has built in stuff into the plugin (which there is no easy way to disable). For example all I want is a Rails IDE. I get something that connects me to an RSS feed and downloads messages even when I am working on Python or C++. WTF? I don't want to be part of any user group. I didn't ask for it. I don't want to be spammed by 'updates' whenever I open eclipse or bring my mac out of sleep. This is a very obtrusive plugin. It makes too much of itself. Which is a pity, because the plugin itself seems to be OK.

Aptana is just ok as far as PHP development goes. Relies/Pushes too much its Jaxer and Cloud stuff. Will be better when it matures.

Bloated. Pushes Jaxer and other crappy tech.

I try and it works very very well !! It seems that fake notations have been given to this plugin. I don't know why but this is not an acceptable behavior !! We had the same problem with Omondo in 2006 and because we didn't react immediately our reputation has been badly damaged on this Eclipse Plugin Central website. Keep going the good job.

All of you who lost your workspace/work did not read when installing carefully -- RTFM. You must install on Eclipse Classic... so don't complain when its your own fault. This plug-in is perhaps the best when it comes to XHTML, CSS, Javascript... hands down. I have been using this plug-in since it was in beta and NEVER had any problems, just need to RTFM.

Install 'Aptana' on Eclipse j2ee -> Destroyed workspace, incorrect work of the CVS plugin and other... Aptana's developers kill yourself.
