We use Xdebug at work - it was a little fiddly to install (Ubuntu 6.06 Server) but most probably because impatient me didn't [want to] read the accompanying documentation. We chose it because there was a plugin for Notepad++ and Firefox which we also use for development.
The plugin is functional but crashes a little bit (maybe a couple of times a day with heavy use). Why did we choose Xdebug? The main reason was that we didn't have to learn another IDE which we didn't have time to do. I have looked at the nuSphere PHP editor and that seems pretty good, but not quite so free.
