Why use Pulse?

There are lots of reasons to give Pulse a try. Some of the most popular are below.

FREE

No kidding. Pulse is a free service. You can download, install and use Pulse with no obligation. It's a quick, easy way to be sure you always have the right tools at the right time. It's a no-brainer.

Faster downloads

By utilizing a new parallel-adaptive mirror selection technology, Pulse will find the ideal number of connections to your chosen product and download it at the maximum available speed.

Anonymous

You don't even have to tell anyone who you are. If you utilize one of the free, pre-loaded profiles, there's not even a need to register. Just get up & running fast!

It's portable

No more configuring at work and then again at home. Create your profile once, use it anywhere. Take your favorite tools wherever you go, worldwide.

Create custom, sharable profiles

You know you want to see what your buddy is using on his system. Now you can take a peek inside. With customizable, sharable profiles, you can be on the same page as all your friends, and maybe show them a thing or two you brewed up as well. Works great for development teams!

Tap in to community knowledge

See the best the community has to offer through ready-to-run software bundles in an easy to use Profile with one click installation.

Stay up to date

Pulse regularly checks your system to be sure you have the most up-to-date, configured software suite. If not, Pulse asks you to be sure you want to update - it won't configure your environment without permission! No more plugin-in headaches.

Small install

The initial download of Pulse is only about 2mb. That's not a typo. From there, Pulse auto-retrieves only the software you need to get your profiles running.

Reclaim your hard drive

Run multiple instances of Eclipse simultaneously without the bloat. Pulse only downloads one copy of anything (plugin, feature, bundle, whatever) and uses it for any profile that requires it.

Fully Integrated with supported operating systems

Pulse provides a rich end-user experience by giving users convenient desktop access to their profiles through configurable shortcuts and program groups.

Always Improving

Pulse is an always-improving product, with regular updates and enhancements. To keep up-to-date on Pulse's goals and future plans, please bookmark the Road Map.
