QA Tester Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "An amazing IDE, make my life so much easier! " August 16, 2021 5.0 I have been primarily using it for test automation, UI, and API and I can say that it's a really powerful tool, very helpful as it speeds up writing code. It's stable, reliable, well supported, and highly customizable. JetBrains makes excellent IDEs and IntelliJ is fine proof of that! Pros Code predictions and suggestions, a ton of customization options, a lot of plugins, and a supportive community. Cons The number of available options can be a bit intimidating for a first-time user, but it's not much of a con as after using it for a while you will come to appreciate its rich features. Alternatives considered [Microsoft Visual Studio](https://www.capterra.com/p/80230/microsoft-visual-studio/) Reason for choosing IntelliJ IDEA Better support for my langue of choice - if C# was my go-to language I'd prick MS Visual Studio most likely. Switched from [Apache NetBeans](https://www.capterra.com/p/178681/Apache-NetBeans/)[Eclipse IDE](https://www.capterra.com/p/205298/Eclipse-IDE/) After comparing IntelliJ with the other IDEs, I realized that it's the best choice for coding in Java. Review Source JS Jugraj S. Software Engineer Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best IDE for Software Development" July 3, 2018 5.0 Pros Intellij is one of the Best IDE available for Free. There is a long list of feature that make it a great tool for application development. It\`s Editor user-friendly with a list of shortcuts to help developer move quickly between files and perform task without taking hand off the keyboard. It support Code Colouring that visually help a lot in writing efficient and effective code. But the most useful of all is the code completion. While working on a huge project mistakes are tend to be happen, like misspelled variable or function name etc. But with IDE that\`s not the case. I not even need to type half of the name, simply by typing first 2-3 letters i can chose from the list for possibility. Another Heavily used feature is real-time code inspection. It help me correct more then half of the mistakes without going to execute and find. that saves my valuable time and effort. Built in VCS (git) is one of the easiest i have ever used. It allows me to visually differ two versions of same file and help me select which line of code from which version i want in my final file without removing the rest of the code which is very useful which testing patches and fix. With a vast library of plugins one can customise the IDE to there specific need. Support for dependencies resolving for a library and Different File format come handy. Cons In my experience this tool is a great and must have requirement for a software . But sometimes having a huge list of functionality can be the downside also. In certain cases like working on a large file features like code colour styling, code completion, code inspection slow down editor's functionality. I encounters big amount of ram usage in such cases and need to manually collaborate it by switching off some of its functionality. Another is that code of its premium features. For a freelancers it is very costly to purchase the license and in the end the left looking for the alternatives. Review Source SH Samuel H. Senior DBA Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Java IDE for developer" December 25, 2022 5.0 As my favorite IDE when coding Java, I think IntelliJ IDEA is smart and really improve my work quality. I have to admit that it is smart! While I am coding, IntelliJ thought proposes enhancements or choices, or cautions us when our code needs some consideration! I can utilize reviews to distinguish possible issues, and IntelliJ Thought likewise generally offers a remedy for this as well. I know people have a lot of thoughts on its cons such as “Not as great as eclipse” in terms of plug in varieties. Since my job role does not require me to use a lot plug ins, but I love the GUI and features of it. as a fairly new product with only 10 years, I think IntelliJ IDEA has completed a great job Pros \-Powerful integration capabilities: such as support for Git, Maven, Spring, etc. . .-The prompt function is fast and convenient.-The prompt function has a relatively wide range.-Useful shortcut keys and code templates-precise search Cons 1\. A lack of plug-in creation. IDEA can only be described as a dwarf plug-in in comparison to Eclipse. There are now fewer than 400 plug-ins that have been formally announced, and many of them lack any useful content. It's possible that IDEA is too strong on its own.2. Only one project can be supported on the same page, which hinders development, especially for programmers who enjoy creating test processes to evaluate various techniques as they are being developed.3. A dearth of technical writing. There are currently relatively few technical articles and almost no technical assistance resources on the Internet.4. The amount of resources consumed is considerable. It basically takes more than 200M to construct a large and medium-sized J2EE project. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Student Higher Education Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "The other half of any Java developer's brain" August 17, 2019 5.0 IDEA has been my go-to Java editor for school and work, and for good reason. Of all the Java IDEs out there, IDEA is the one that truly makes the 'integrated environment' part of 'IDE' a reality by giving you full control over your code -- rather than the other way around. Pros When IntelliJ markets IDEA as 'the intelligent Java IDE', they aren't exaggerating. It has the best autocomplete of any IDE I've ever used, beating out the likes of Visual Studio with suggestions that are exactly what I need 99% of the time. But by far my favourite part of IDEA's intelligence are its code suggestions, which will tell you if you've made weird or inefficient choices with your code. This can range from telling you about an if-else statement that will never be true, to identifying anti-patterns that would have cost you down the line. The latter continuously impresses me with how insightful and specific the advice can get. Even looking beyond the intelligent part, IDEA was made first and foremost with Java developers in mind and it shows. I can't tell you how much time the code generators have saved me from writing boilerplate, and code refactoring works like a dream. I can't picture Java development getting any better than this. Cons The most immediately frustrating thing about IntelliJ is its startup time. It's not abysmally slow, but in a world where editors like Visual Studio Code and Sublime Text exist with lightning-fast startup times, waiting for IDEA to boot up can be less-than-ideal. Many times, I've resorted to just opening up my Java files in Notepad for small edits because I couldn't be bothered to spend more time opening the IDEA than it would take to make the edit. The other thing that makes me reluctant to open IDEA from time-to-time is its resource intensity. I use a small laptop for most of my work, which is capable of running IDEA just fine... until I open up Firefox, Slack, and other programs I use on a daily basis. There have been more than a few times where I've had to close other windows or even IntelliJ itself because its resource usage was slowing my system down to a crawl. Review Source Brunei A. Développeur Full Stack Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "IntelliJ IDEA" March 5, 2023 4.0 I find the user interface to be intuitive and easy to use, and the features and tools make it a great development environment for Java projects. I especially like the debugging tools, which make it easy to identify and fix problems quickly. The integration with Git and other version control systems also makes it easier to keep track of changes and collaborate with others. Pros I love IntelliJ IDEA for its efficiency and intuitive design. IntelliJ IDEA has a very powerful code editor that allows me to write code faster and with fewer errors. It also comes with a great set of refactoring tools that make it easy to quickly refactor and improve existing code. The built-in debuggers and unit testing tools are also very helpful in quickly finding and resolving bugs. Additionally, IntelliJ IDEA has an impressive set of features such as auto-completion, code inspections, and intentions that make it easier to write clean, well-structured code. Cons IntelliJ's attractive design and user interface may require more CPU power than other IDEs, but the benefits it provides make up for it. Everything else about it is great. Review Source SO Shadi O. IT Consultant & Online Instructor Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Designed for addiction..." June 3, 2021 5.0 I started with the community edition then I found out during the trial period of the Ultimate edition, is that it has so many powerful utilities and not only with but with other high level programming languages like groovy, Kotlin, etc. Also, I impressed with the integration with other CI tools i.e. GitHub, Team City, Jira, Docker, etc. In a nut shell it it is a beautiful and power IDE that's why I decided to buy a license for only 10 Euros a month, it's worth it. Pros The way it was designed, made me addicted to the tool, and I love to use it on a daily basis. To be honest I found Java more appealing to interact with using IntelliJ community or Ultimate edition. Cons The only Cons I find is if you don't use it you do not know what you are missing out... Sometime other integrated plug-in appear to issue messages but this is a minor issue as IntelliJ IDE is controlling the behavior of these plug-ins. Reason for choosing IntelliJ IDEA Because of the built in addiction with the IDEA. You can not not like the product. Just fell in love with it. Review Source KKJ Krishna Kant J. Software Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "One of the finest and strongest IDE" November 29, 2021 5.0 IntelliJ IDEA has been very useful in my development career right from learning to building code. I believe it is the best to start with Java development and I highly recommend trying and using IntelliJ IDEA IDE. Pros The most attractive thing of IntelliJ IDE is its clean and powerful UI. It makes code development easy, readable and efficient. Some wonderful debugging tools make it one of the best. Cons With IntelliJ IDE there are some lags while developing huge code and it requires machines with higher configuration than average machines to run it smoothly. It is overall a nice IDE though.

It has Lots useful of features." February 23, 2023 5.0 Overall, IntelliJ IDEA is a very powerful tool for developers, so it's a must have IDE. Pros It is very useful IDE for developers for application development. Neat and clean UI. Lots of themes and many good features. Many customizations option. Easy to use , integrate with plugins and extensions. Good debugging, code completion and refactoring tools. Integrated Maven , Gradle and GIT makes it very easy for code development. Cons Ultimate edition is very costly for individual developers. It is a Heavy software, so need better system with good computing and memory resources, otherwise it will make the machine slow. New users might get overwhelmed with lots of options and features. So, there is some learning curve to use this software. Switched from [Eclipse IDE](https://www.capterra.com/p/205298/Eclipse-IDE/) Because IntelliJ IDEA is more powerful with many advanced features and integration options than eclipse.Also, it is more stable.

Pros I like practically everything about IntelliJ. Its ease of use is the main factor. It customizable and caters to literally everyone. Code editing is fast and easy since there are so many shortcuts to use. The debugger is excellent. Cons There is very little I dislike.

They always want to know your opinion and ready to listen and even work on it to make it happen. Pros If you are a mobile applications developer, IntelliJ IDEA is a must for all who want to work faster and concentrate on the application's ideas and enhancement instead of coding typos and mistakes.

I have been using this software for a long period of time and I am very happy about this software as this software develops all the time when new JAVA versions are arriving. I hope u all try this software and experience the incredible features of this software. Pros IntelliJ IDEA is an amazing software that I usually use to analyze codes as it owns a code analyzer especially to identify errors. This software is very helpful to beginners as it has good support for code making with good assistance. Hence it is very convenient and easy to use. Some of the features I interested most about this software are duplicate detection, astute code completion ability, possessed of an enormous number of shortcuts, supporting for multiple tools and frameworks, proper analyzing and quick fixing ability which helps me a lot to distinguish the mistakes I have done and its ability to support different application servers such as JBoss, WebLogic, Tomcat, etc. This IntelliJ IDEA software is assimilated with databases and servers also. This software has loads of plugins such as Sonar Lint which I use to analyze my codes when I am writing those. This software is accessible for a wide range of plugins, so it is very flexible for developers to use it. I love its dark theme which comes as default. I am very happy about its entertaining code editing facility and its awesome debugging facility. Usually, I work with Java, JSF, and JavaEE, so the amazing features in the software support me a lot to continue my projects and tasks. I hope u must try this agile IntelliJ IDEA software as a JAVA developer. IntelliJ IDEA software suits me a lot. Cons This software is a bit expensive, and sometimes it is lagging when I am running large projects in this software.

At first, I was hesitant to try IntelliJ as I had an unhealthy obsession with VSCode but VSCode isn't great when it comes to things like C++, Java and Scala. I switched to IntelliJ to work on a SpringBoot project and ever since then it has been my go-to for Java. For the developers that are reluctant to have more than one IDE (I was reluctant too), IntelliJ supports a wide variety of languages. With the new updates, it also has support for version controlling, debugging and you could easily customize it to your preference so that you don't have to get used to new shortcuts. Cons It does take a while to get used to the overall application and is a bit resource hungry but there should be workarounds for that and once you get the hang of the application it is easy to use. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Technical Lead Computer Software Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "I Greate IDE for Developers" February 23, 2023 5.0 Overall I had a good experience using IntelliJ IDEA. It fulfills most of the requirements. Pros I mostly like the ease of use of IntelliJ IDEA. Using IntelliJ IDEA is quite straightforward as importing a project is very simple. With a few clicks, we can import any type of project.Code suggestion and code compilation are very good features. We can integrate other software like Apache Tomcat and MariaDB also. Cons The only thing is that it becomes sometimes slow with big projects. Otherwise, It works smoothly without any issues. Review Source Prudencia F. Technician in Energy and Thermal Engineering Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "IntelliJ IDEA Review" February 19, 2023 4.0 I have been using IntelliJ IDEA for several years now and it is one of the best development environments I have ever used. It is very easy to use and has a lot of features to help you with your coding. The user interface is very intuitive and easy to navigate, and the auto-completion helps speed up development time. Pros I like IntelliJ IDEA because it is an incredibly powerful and intuitive development environment. It provides many features that help me to write high-quality code quickly. It has a great user interface which makes it easy to navigate through my project and quickly find the code I need. Additionally, it has a wide variety of plugins that make it even more powerful. IntelliJ IDEA also has great features such as code completion and refactoring, which make my development process faster and more efficient. Lastly, I appreciate the constant updates that IntelliJ IDEA provides, which keeps my development environment up to date. Cons The biggest downside to IntelliJ IDEA is its cost. It is a paid product, so if you are on a tight budget or strictly looking for a free IDE, then IntelliJ might not be the right option for you. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Engineering Manager Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Vital for Javascript and Java" July 19, 2018 4.0 Pros 1\. It can help find references in the dynamic crazyness of Javascript. It isn't perfect, but from what I have seen others using (Atom, sublimetext, eclipse, etc.) it is the best. It also has most JS stuff ready to go instead of fiddling around with installing all sorts of third party plugins. 2. It is easy to split tabs vertically or horizontally and move them around. 3. Search is pretty powerful. Can do regex within file, by file name, by words, by usage. 4. The debugger is great. You just set your breakpoints and can inspect visually in the debug panel or now it even shows the variable values right in the code for even faster checks. You can also evaluate sections of crazy expressions on the fly (please don't write crazy expressions that even you can't remember how it works months later :D). Cons 1\. Indexing. One of the larger projects we have can get into this indexing stage that takes minutes and you can't really do anything else. Usually this won't happen unless you are starting from scratch but it comes around maybe once a month for me. 2. Some may consider it bloated. It has a lot of features hidden in the preferences panel and various menus. 3. If you use react I think FB's editor will most likely be better. But for nodejs or normal JS I doubt it can compare. Disclosure I haven't used Nuclide much. Review Source Igor M.

If you are Java Developer but use another IDE, try this one, and you will fall in love with it. Pros 1\. It makes me productive in developing: - It supports many top frameworks - Additional features can be added via many plugins - It has a great debugging mechanism. 2. It has smth like artificial intelligence inside. It is truly intelligent: - It has a great possibility for automatic and advisable code refactoring - It advice how to improve my code - it provides a code autocomplete feature 3. It is very intuitive. Before I have read its documentation, I already use it with success. - It has many useful shortcuts for every hour of repeating operations. - It has a big quantity of hints 4. The version without Spring (Community Edition) is free and is enough for every starter. This allows you to feel this high-quality product. 5. It is provided free of charge for some categories of Java Developers, for people who studying Java on courses, etc. A little bit difficult to explain in some rows the full list of what I like the most. I feel it like my hands, even if I still do not use it at 100% power. Cons 1\. It accustoms me to use it. You become a big fan of this tool if try it for some time. 2. It consumes more memory than alternative IDEs. 3. The free version of IntelliJ IDEA does not support Spring. Review Source Dulvin W.

The debugging is the power of this IDE, making it so easy to put debug pointers and dive into the code. The local history, git history type of functions are very handy. The languages this IDE support are many and lot of different build tools as well. It has very extensive add-on marketplace as well which is very useful.

It's superior, albeit I'm not sure why. There isn't just one significant jump. However, it is more adept at refactoring, supports a wider range of languages, handles Git better, and is easier to understand. It performs better when it comes to making inferences from code, such as recommending changes like switching to a lambda or eliminating unnecessary code. That kind of thing. Pros A very seamless development workflow is made possible by the design's inherent intelligence and efficiency, which extends to the construction, testing, debugging, and refactoring stages! In addition to offering a multitude of plugins that we can incorporate into the editor, it is jam-packed with capabilities.
