PyCharm vs. Siemens Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) Portal

PyCharm is well suited to developing and deploying Python applications in the cloud using Kubernetes or serverless pipelines. The integration with GitLab is great; merges and rebates are easily done and help the developer move quickly. The search engine that allows you to search inside your code is also great. It is less appropriate for other languages.

Well suited: It is a software that allows to simulate PID controllers is a valuable educational resource. Users can learn how PID controllers maintain the desired value of a process variable, such as temperature, pressure, or flow, by adjusting system inputs in simulation. It is a program that allows to simulate electro-pneumatic systems can be extremely useful to understand the integration of electronic components with pneumatic actuators, valves, and other elements in automated control systems. Less appropiate: The software appears to be resource intensive in terms of storage and execution. This means that it requires a significant amount of hard disk space and good processing power to run efficiently. On computers with limited or older hardware, the software may run slowly or not be able to execute all of its functions. This is an important limitation for users with limited access to high specification equipment.

• Git integration is really essential as it allows anyone to visually see the local and remote changes, compare revisions without the need for complex commands.
• Complex debugging tools are basked into the IDE. Controls like break on exception are sometimes very helpful to identify errors quickly.
• Multiple runtimes - Python, Flask, Django, Docker are native the to IDE. This makes development and debugging and even more seamless.
• Integrates with Jupyter and Markdown files as well. Side by side rendering and editing makes it simple to develop such files.

• scada system simulation
• Allows the simulation of HMI screens
• integrates the necessary software to simulate PLC's and link them with HMI screens.
• It is useful when handling Grafcet.
• Easy to program in function blocks FBD.

• The biggest complaint I have about PyCharm is that it can use a lot of RAM which slows down the computer / IDE. I use the paid version, and have otherwise found nothing to complain about the interface, utility, and capabilities.

• Amount of resources it takes up on the hard drive
• excessive consumption of execution resources (RAM, GPU)
• some licensing problems that are sometimes not recognized
• the existing saturation of icons on the main programming screen

It's perfect for our needs, cuts development time, is really helpful for newbies to understand projects structure

It's pretty easy to use, but if it's your first time using it, you need time to adapt. Nevertheless, it has a lot of options, and everything is pretty easy to find. The console has a lot of advantages and lets you accelerate your development from the first day.

I rate 10/10 because I have never needed a direct customer support from the JetBrains so far. Whenever and for whatever kind of problems I came across, I have been able to resolve it within the internet community, simply by Googling because turns out most of the time, it was me who lacked the proper information to use the IDE or simply make the proper configuration. I have never came across a bug in PyCharm either so it deserves 10/10 for overall support

When it comes to development and debugging PyCharm is better than Spyder as it provides good debugging support and top-quality code completion suggestions. Compared to Jupiter notebook it's easy to install required packages in PyCharm, also PyChram is a good option when we want to write production-grade code because it provides required suggestions.

• PyCharm has a very positive ROI for our BU. It has increased developer productivity exponentially.
• Software quality has significantly improved. We are able to refactor/test/debug the code quicker/faster/better.
• Our business unit is able to deliver faster. Customers are happier than ever.

• accelerated learning curve
• very intuitive visual interfaces
• allows the user to get familiar with the programming environment easily
