I've been paying for the entire IntelliJ suite for years as they're the best IDEs out there. The quality of the code completion and analysis has taken a bit of a dip in the last year, but that still puts it ahead of everyone else. It is a bit pricey but it's not actually that bad particularly when you consider that the terms of the license grant continued use of the current version of the IDE if you cancel your subscription.
I too have been paying the their suite for years, but am using last year’s versions because of that quality dip, which was not only code completion but issues with error highlighting.
I hope it’s gotten better
And do you use all their tools? Right now I'm only using CLion because I am 99% of the time coding in C and I sometime need to create python scripts.
Im not sure the whole suite makes sense for me.
Primarily I use IDEA for Java/Kotlin, but I do use RustRover and DataGrip for Rust and SQL respectively. I used to use CLion for Rust prior to them releasing RustRover though.
So with the pricing as it is, it makes sense for you to buy the full suite since it cost 20$ than 3 personal licenses.
And that's not counting the price drop the 2nd and 3rd year.
You will find reasons to use the entire suite.
I'll have to checkout the other tools because I use C 95% of the time.
Same for me except it’s Java/kotlin, Ruby with RubyMine, Clion for editing my keyboard config in QMK, Pycharm for when I have to touch Python, Webstorm for all the typescript stuff, and datagrip is just the best in the business.
I have writerside and rustrover installed but until they support asciidoc I won’t be using it. I stopped doing rust because I’m not smart enough.
