Pros

“The clean and effortless integration of search, debugging, git, docker and database queries is so effortless I only really notice how well it works when trying out one of the new "Ai IDES" missing all these features.”

Marvin S.

Lead Developer

“In PhpStorm , I notice it catches errors as I type, and it pushes these really relevant quick-fixes, like right there.”

Enguerran M.

Fullstack Web Developer

“On top of that, I’m always using the database tools , especially through DataGrip integration, and the Git integration is excellent.”

“Azure boards and tests need a complete revamp.”

Cons

“On those bigger legacy projects with massive codebases , indexing can take a few minutes at least, and it can trigger noticeable CPU spikes even on a solid machine.”

Enguerran M.

Fullstack Web Developer

“The biggest Gripe and the reason why its only 4 stars is the crashes and freezes.”

Marvin S.

Lead Developer

“On the odd occasion, you may run into memory usage issues.”

Nick B.

Engineer III

Cons

“Although it offers great features for backup and recovery, improper configuration or lack of regular backups could create a risk of information/data loss. ”

Tharani C.

RPA Developer

“The customer support team is not easily approachable. But, I rarely face any critical issue, otherwise there are a lot of help articles and community support available.”
