Overall Satisfaction with Eclipse
I have used it as the main IDE to develop products in java and jsf - primefaces and jsp, the truth is a very powerful IDE which can be integrated with several technologies, for example when working with continuous integration there are very useful plugins such as may task incubator integration with git directly in the IDE, it has the facility to create Maven projects, the truth is very complete.
It has many versions which you can choose to work with, there are also many IDE's that are based on Eclipse, which allows working with several environments, and which can be oriented to different types and technologies. The large number of plugins that it has allows you to configure in a flexible way for your workspace.

- can be integrated with continuous integration
- supports different types of programming languages
- supports different servers
- perform unit tests with JUnit quickly using a plugins
- it's very heavy
- it embraces a lot with the servers and you have to run a lot of clean and build
- some configurations are very cumbersome
- continuous integration
- streamline unit tests
- ability to upload to git directly from the ide
- integrate several technologies into a project
They are very similar but eclipse has greater availability of plugins that allow you to achieve much more satisfactory results, in the products that are developed, the basic configurations are a bit more difficult than in NetBeans but they are much more specific and much more complete, which allows having a little more control over the ide, eclipse is also a little less heavy than NetBeans.
For example, in my case I started to work with eclipse, before working with other IDE's and I found it quite comfortable and intuitive, at first it scares the amount of options you have but once you get used to it it is very simple, it has a learning curve very short what if you have already worked with other IDE's is very easy to grasp the trick.
