I&#x27;m with you in terms of productivity&#x2F;results etc.  I remember when I started with a new team that were all Eclipse.  I gave it my all.  I really did.  No doubt much of it came down to familiarity but there was something about it that I couldn&#x27;t jive with. It seemed to introduce concepts&#x2F;abstractions that didn&#x27;t need to exist.  It crashed a bunch.  There were more steps involved with everything.  I had pick up after it.  It was slow.  Then I said, you know what?  I can&#x27;t hack this, I&#x27;m going back to IDEA.  Suddenly it felt like I was in a ferrari rather than a trabant.  Fully accept that a lot of that was down to me not being a particularly fast learner, that I was used to IDEA in the first place etc.<p>I&#x27;m happy to pay Jetbrains three times the amount I pay to continue with it.  This deal is great for me because I wanted to use PyCharm and CLion, and have historically used Rubymine, and the amount I have to pay to have everything isn&#x27;t that far off what I pay already.<p>I consider it money well paid to be able to be more productive.  Understand other people feel differently... it&#x27;s nice to be idealogically consistent and beholden to no-one.  That&#x27;s worth a lot to many.
