Overall Satisfaction with IntelliJ IDEA

IntelliJ idea is being used as the core Java integrated development environment for my organization's project. It is being used by 3 teams across different functions and the business problem it solves is the need for a cross platform, uniform environment to write code in Java that can be tested thoroughly.
  • integrated development environment
  • code testing
  • code organization
  • documentation
  • time to deployment has decreased
  • better code testing has led to less bugs
  • great uniformity to our software process
The user interface for IntelliJ Idea is phenomenal. It's got the usual JetBrains interface but it works well to support all Java processes. All in all, it is a solid product and to be expected from JetBrains who creates this integrated development environment software. It allows me to test in the IDE and run other manual workflows automatically such as install packages.
IntelliJ has great support when you need it. Their forums are the key area for support as the company is European and I haven't seen the exact need to get ahold of a human being per se. There's enough information out there about the software so it's pretty solid for your average software engineer.
IntelliJ Idea is best suited for Java development. If you are using a different language than IntelliJ Idea would not be sufficient for the various workflows and processes that are needed for Java development.
