Seriously, there was no any software that was developed by JetBrains and was bad for me. It has integrated debugger. It has many shortcuts. Also, Pycharm highlight your code with different colors to read it easier and has code completion feature. > > **Cons**: It uses a lot of computer resources, especially RAM. As a result, laptops batteries levels can go up to 0% much faster. > > One of the best IDE's for developers and not only. Considering the fact that it has so many cool features, prices are not as high as they supposed to be. ----- ### "Almost perfect software for perfect programming" — 5.0/5 > **Ratulovszky** | *10 August 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The best thing is that the software knows many programming languages ​​and thus can help users to write the program. I think this is a huge help for programmers, but also for all other users in writing their codes. > > **Cons**: The only thing I don't like about the software is its slow load time. This is confusing for me when using the program. > > I think PyCharm is a very useful software that I can recommend to many of my friends. It helps a lot for programmers who are not yet on sure footing, but more experienced users can also benefit from working in this software. I can recommend it to people who would like to learn to program or to those who do this activity at an amateur level and do not want to spend money on a software that helps them. ----- ### "You can do better (and worse, too)" — 2.0/5 > **Gustavo** | *19 July 2019* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy package searching and installation once the initial setup is done. It has plenty of debugging features, and it's handy to keep track of a large project. > > **Cons**: It's not exactly lightweight. Using it to install Python on my Windows machine turned out to be quite a hassle. I've been using it for years, and while it's decent for medium to large projects, there is really no reason to use it if all you need is a short script. > > I don't like it very much. Interacting with PyCharm (in other ways than just writing code) is frequently slow and confusing. The last couple of times I opened it, I immediately closed it and opened VSCode instead. I keep it installed anyway, as it did help me quite a bit back when I had to build a compiler from the ground up. If you really, REALLY need an IDE, then I guess you could do worse than PyCharm. ----- ### "My opinion on PyCharm after 2 years of using it as student and 6 months as a professional" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *15 August 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I really like about PyCharm is the ability to separate the output of the script and the debugging terminal, also the auto-complete feature is great it saved me a lot of time > > **Cons**: It is not lightweight software, and it produces a huge amount of junk files that eats the space on your PC you will need to delete those files every week if your PC has no enough space > > I loved developing python scripts with PyCharm, it saved me a lot of time, an easy to get the hang of it due to its simple UI ----- ### "One stop solution for Python enthusiasts" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 August 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I found its user-friendly UI self-explanatory, making it easier to navigate. It gives the flexibility to install packages, build ML models and deploy. > > **Cons**: Too much resource hungry and consumes up a lot of RAM during use. > > It was a great experience for me to use Pycharm so far. I have been using this IDE for my day-to-day tasks as a data science professional. The only issue I had with it is the high RAM usage which slows down my work often. ----- Page: 1 / 16\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2048417/pycharm?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2048417/pycharm) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
