I have been using Global for about 6 years now. Mostly I use it in emacs (though at times I use the CLI version).

I use it in Linux and Windows. I mostly work on C/C++ (Linux kernel, Windows drivers etc) and also have used it for few C# projects (via exuberant ctags backend).

One real advantage I get: I switch platforms between Linux and Windows (the place I work for has both). So I use emacs in both platforms and same gtags customization works out of box in both platforms. This relieves me in learning/using new editor/tagging system for each platform.

FWIW: my dot emacs https://github.com/surki/dotemacs/blob/master/init.org
