Overall Satisfaction with Eclipse
It's one of the IDEs that many developers use daily. Most Java engineers use it to write and debug code. It's used across the entire engineering team.
- Lots of debugging features
- Auto-completion saved a lot of time for developers
- Extensibility is not as good as IntelliJ
- It uses more resources than some other IDEs. It becomes pretty slow when the project is big.
- Debugging features. It really can save a lot of time.
- Auto-completion when writing code.
- Plugins that are targarted at specific type of projects
- It saves a massive amount of debugging time thanks to its abundant features that can help developers find root causes of their problem quickly.
They are both great IDEs and we use both. IntelliJ may have a larger community so there are more plugins available, which means it could be a better choice for some specific types of projects.
