Overall Satisfaction with IntelliJ IDEA

IntelliJ IDEA is a widely used IDE in our company. Most of the Java and Scala programmers rely on this awesome IDE, which has everything that you need in a day-to-day software development. Some of the users mainly use it as a database exploring requirements. There's nothing that this awesome tool doesn't support.
  • It makes your development easy. Smart code completion can make you write code faster than ever.
  • Advanced refactoring takes care of applying complicated changes to the code safely.
  • IntelliJ IDEA offers an amazing set of integrated developer tools that make development more productive.
  • Uses a lot of resources and almost makes your machine unusable.
  • Error messages can be improved. It's a bit confusing to understand the IntelliJ IDEA error messages.
  • Sometimes the SDKs are not properly installed when we open an existing project.
  • Smart code completion
  • Developer tools
  • Build and version control tools
  • I love all JetBrain products and IntelliJ IDEA is one of the best--excellent software for Java development.
  • Debugger is super smart and makes it easy to find issues and fix them. It provides suggestions that are really very useful.
  • Plugin support is great. You will find at least one for anything you search related to Java.
IntelliJ IDEA is one of the products of JetBrains and it beats every IDE in the market in terms of performance, user experience, and productivity.

You can enable themes and create shortcuts that make your development easy and interesting. Lot of the things are abstracted so you won't need another tool. For example, you won't need git desktop if you're using IntelliJ IDEA.
