We use it on a daily basis to access java programs and Oracle Service Bus proxy services. It is used across the organization by many people. We are a service and integration team, and we build services using Java/Weblogic JAX-RPC using Eclipse. It enables us to modernize legacy systems by exposing them as services.
  • It's a free tool and we can use it for pretty much everything Java.
  • We also use it to connect to version control systems, such as svm directly from the IDE.
  • It has great short cuts enabling us to navigate between various classes and methods at a great speed.
  • I think the shortcuts and handling of boiler plate code could be better.
  • We miss connectivity to something like Salesforce CRM to do SOQL queries.
Java and Web programming using Eclipse IDE is very cool. It's easy to get on to it. The learning curve is very less.
I am not sure how good eclipse is for Python Django kind of work. I use PyCharm for the same. Also, refactoring code is not intuitive on Eclipse.
  • We could quickly get to use the Eclipse IDE.
  • It's not a very heavy tool compared to something like JDeveloper.
  • We built over 100 JSPs and Servlets and Web services using Eclipse.
For no license, Eclipse is a very good start. IntelliJ has much greater support and tools for many things like connecting to all kinds of databases and SaaS platform such as Salesforce. Code refactoring is also very cool on IntelliJ compared to Eclipse. For Python and Django programming I think PyCharm is better.
