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.
Jetbrains 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.
The 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.

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.
IntelliJ 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!
Maybe RAM usage of the program should be optimized.

Positive.7/10 ratingBut not as light weight as VS code or other IDEs that provide similar features
The IDE has lot many shortcuts for code refactoring and provides great suggestions to developers to improve the code quality.It has great integration with source code management like GitHub, GitLab, Version control.
It is very resource heavy , sometimes consumes a huge block of memory on machine, Especially it gets very difficult while working parallel to a video call (remote working) as video call apps are also resource heavy.

IntillijIdea is a great IDE for developers who want a powerful and efficient solution. It's easy to use and offers many features that make developing apps and websites easier.
IntillijIdea is an extremely powerful and efficient integrated development environment (IDE) from JetBrains. The IDE is highly customizable and provides many useful features such as code completion, refactoring, version control, and a built-in debugger. It's also very easy to use and navigate around.
One of the drawbacks of IntillijIdea is that it requires a lot of memory and disk space. It can also be a bit pricey for some users.
