IntelliJ IDEA for Professional Developers
IntelliJ IDEA has become a software that I can easily use with my teammates and increases our development speed in many projects. As a program that is constantly updated and renews itself, it attaches great importance to user support. This of course motivates us. The fact that we have a large community behind us regarding the software we use greatly reduces the potential problems we may experience. IntelliJ offers professional development experience with its unique innovations that promise high performance and perfect interface.
PROSIntelliJ IDEA has powerful technologies and features. User friendly and easy to use GUI. Runs much faster than alternatives. You can edit and configure everything you imagine in your project with IntelliJ IDEA. If you are a developer and you have a idea, you should use IntelliJ IDEA!
CONSMaybe RAM usage of the program should be optimized.
Reason for choosing IntelliJ IDEA
It stands out with its product quality among many alternatives. Definitely #1 in customer support. In addition, it always offers the right product to its customers with the innovations that come regularly and the wide product range it offers.
Reasons for switching to IntelliJ IDEA
Eclipse is not working efficiently. Crushes every time i open a project. Bad GUI and themes. Less features and plugins.

Awesome IDE for your daily JAVA related development
I am very pleased with IntelliJ IDEA after moving from Eclipse. Which is also a great tool but I love how smooth IntelliJ IDEA runs on my MacBook Pro. This is one of the best experience I have with an IDE
PROSI like how intelligently it suggests, and it's features which include awesome code completions, as well as intuitive way to integrate plugins for different tools. It also includes gigantic amount of shortcuts, when you're familiar with them makes your day to day life pretty easy. Attractive interface along with the debugging capabilities for JAVA makes this the go to tool for any developer. This also has version control included, which smoothens the process of a Software developer by a great deal
CONSSome plugins take huge amount of memory, so if you're on a machine which does not have enough power, you might not get the fullest experience. Hence you're encouraged to use a powerful machine for this Extremely Helpful software to run properly
Reasons for switching to IntelliJ IDEA
I felt the smooth experience and, the awesome support for Git, while being able to learn everything pretty easily wanting me to move to IntelliJ IDEA. I am glad that I made the move.

It was good, now it worse
This is my main (yet) IDE for last 6 years, so it is my kind of Swiss-army knife for development .
PROSIntelliJ IDEA is JAVA IDE and unified platform for other languages IDE like PyCharm (Python), HTML/Javascript (WebStorm), C/C++ (CLion) etc. Back in the days it was the most powerful and flexible IDE with a lot of features out of the box, modular structure that allows to extend functionality using plugins, very convenient editor with autocomplete and syntax highlighting, tools to run, debug and profile code and many more. Last not least it had reasonable price and discounts.
CONSNow days it becomes a little monster working pretty unstable and slow, with regular freezes and crashes. Developers communication with user community is pretty poor, requests for highly-demanded features are actually ignored for years, fundamental problems (like freezes) not fixed from release to release. Price model was changed, so fast-growing Visual Studio Code becomes more and more attractive alternative to JetBrain IDEs.

10 months of experience working with IntelliJ IDEA.
I have created several programs and one of them was about managing employee information (records and roles) using Java. my productivity has increased through provides right method at right time and get syntax quickly, no need to do Google search. It was smooth to work on than other programs like (Eclipse IDE).
PROSThe debugging feature allowed me to easily check variables and evaluate expressions. productivity and variable syntax and options have increased with the help of auto suggestion. I find it fascinating how we can write unit tests, run test cases and debug separately.
CONSOne of the applications that affected the speed of my system, especially when I open many instances.

Powerful IDE worth the investment
A number of the other IDEs on the market are resource heavy and sluggish. IntelliJ also does a very good job with memory management on MacOS and doesn't need any fancy configuration to get up and running. Unit testing software, database plugins, memory monitors are all a part of this tool.
PROSJetbrains packs a lot of features into one IDE. If you are searching for a tool to do something very specific in Java - usually there is a plugin for it. I've grown up using netbeans and eclipse, but have always needed to rely on external tools to provide additional features. But intelliJ is very feature rich.
CONSThe cost is very heavy especially for a startup company. It works out if you are a large company or a teacher/student. The costs rule out a lot of people from using this tool over something free like eclipse/netbeans.
Reasons for switching to IntelliJ IDEA
The integrated toolset, the number of plugins, the support and the speed of intelliJ puts all other java IDEs to shame.
