NetBeans vs. RubyMine

If your organization works with developing or supporting Java applications and is focused on running efficiently with a lean budget, NetBeans would be a good choice to consider.

If your development staff uses other languages, or prefers a high level of available professional IDE support, it may be better to consider a paid option if your budget allows.

If you are Ruby On Rails Developer, RubyMine is great choice of IDE. It provides good integration with rails so that running rake tasks, generators, bundle install all can be done from within the IDE. So using RubyMine it decreases extra time to go to googling syntax for Ruby code and making developer more productive.

• Great code completion, just start typing some code and the program will fill in the code.
• Find/Replace is a key feature and works through whole projects as opposed to just a single file.
• Side by side code comparison right in the interface allows me to update similar pages.
• I appreciate the ease of using variable highlighting, with a wave of the mouse you can see visually where a given variable exists in your code.

• auto completes almost all syntax for Ruby On Rails
• RubyMine is having ability to browse the source code for any gem you are using
• find in project work fast and too much effective
• Adding a breakpoints and debugging code for errors is just great with RubyMine

• Heavy software needs more RAM. It does tend to use a lot of your computer's resources if you're loading up a huge project and slow things down.
• Problems with configuring plugins.
• With every release of a new version, there are some bugs which create problems while coding.

Incentivized

• frequent software updates is sometimes tedious
• uses more CPU memory to run, it's not light weight process

Netbeans enhances my coding work, shows me where I have errors and helps find variable instances. I would be lost without find/replace in projects functionality as I use projects as templates for new projects. Occasionally the code hints aggravate me, but I understand that it is actually making me a better coder, working to get the 'green light' of a clean file with no errors or clumsy code.

NetBeans has a very strong user community. We can find solutions here for almost all the problems we face. In addition, we can forward NetBeans Support teams the problems we cannot solve. We can get quick feedback from the support teams, but I generally try to solve my problems by following the forums.

IBM Rational Application Developer and IntelliJ IDEA are great with hell lot of features packed into the product and are subscription based. However, most of the features they were providing were moot from my organization's business perspective and the cost was expensive. Eclipse is an opensource product with great features, but is difficult to configure and use as compared to NetBeans. One of the frustrating issues we faced with Eclipse was its slowness while saving a file. http://https//stackoverflow.com/questions/40166270/eclipse-neon-pathetically-slow

RubyMine is specifically for Ruby On Rails so it is more focused and having more syntax autocompletion and other tasks automation with good code debugging skill. So, for particular Ruby On Rails project development it is much more advanced and effective than any other general IDE like Visual studio and Sublime Text.

• It changed my way of coding. In my early days of development I never indented code, but with NetBeans my coding way has changed.
• One IDE for all languages. I can write code in PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in only one editor or IDE.

• sometimes it feels slow down system because of using RubyMine as it requires more memory and power.
• RubyMine is great choice of any Ruby On Rails Developer as it reduces time of project development by providing lots of inbuilt functionalities like autocompletes syntax running rake task, git integrations and many more
