I just gave a try to IntelliJ after watching all of you opinion and used it almost a month but the thing i noticed in IntelliJ its fast but the error reporting is not good as netbeans i have made couple of mistakes while using IntelliJ it went un-noticed while if  you do the same in netbeans it wont let you go forward unless you correct it.

I left NetBeans when it was released its 8 edition alongside Java 8, I know that Netbeans project has been given to Apache Foundation, so maybe they improved it? I don't remember such great experience with the old NetBeans. JetBrains' products are developed by developer for developer, they are nearly perfect, maybe you bad experience is due to a incomplete configuration/setup of the plugin environment.
