Let's get real for a moment: Eclipse is a plug-in hell.

Have you ever try to run a multi-module App Engine project with multi 
module GWT app, configured with Maven? Don't even try, go to the command 
line and run the server from there.

Sometimes you lose days of work just setting up the environment. And that 
sucks.

But, I still use it. I prefer how Eclipse deal with git and how it's code 
completion works (ctrl+space for everything, instead of a different 
shortcut for each type of code completion, like on IntelliJ). It's a matter 
of knowing what is possible and what is not inside the IDE, and which 
combination of plug-ins (and its versions) works for your project, and 
which don't.

I have some friends that love IntelliJ and would never go back to Eclipse 
again. In my opinion, if you aren't crazy yet because of the plug-in hell, 
Eclipse can still do a good job. Like Ed said, it's the best free IDE 
available.
