Overall, it is a powerful IDE for secure development. > > **Cons**: It can e heavy on memory. Some features differ from other IDEs, which can be confusing when switching tools. > > Overall, it has been great for development. The UI and smart features boost productivity, though it can be resource-heavy at times. Still, it's a reliable and powerful IDE ----- ### "Specialized python development comes with perks" — 5.0/5 > **Joshua** | *June 12, 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The specialized nature of the ide really shines through with so many features that make it great to work with python code bases. The only problem is that you will find it hard to give up once you use it. > > **Cons**: I had to rewrite/redo environment variable and settings I had set up in VS code because they are input into the UI not kept in a setting file. > > For python it is great. Lots of tools for development and code review. Integrates with other Jet Brains tools. ----- ### "Best IDE for Python Development" — 4.0/5 > **Andrew** | *March 8, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We can be developed and tested directly within this very application > > **Cons**: It takes some time to load everything properly > > I write my code and manage all of my Python projects ----- ### "Pycharm for the win\!" — 5.0/5 > **Tyler** | *August 13, 2025* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to navigate UI, AI integrations, the whole Jet Brian’s suite works well together, offer student licenses > > **Cons**: There are certain IDE/VENV that aren’t natively supported, I’ve had a difficult experience with support team and merging my student account to professional account ----- ### "A must-have tool for Python development" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *July 17, 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's a very extensible IDE, with lots of native support and plugins for everything you'll need for developing scripts and applications. I've been using PyCharm for years, and it's been killer the entire time\! PyCharm includes the code editor, debugger, test runner, version control, package manager, database tools, virtual environment support, and web framework support. With so many tools included, it's difficult to recommend anything else\! > > **Cons**: The application can be quite clunky and heavy due to the nature of the way it has been built. Whilst there are lots of good extensions, some third-party vendors will develop for it second to VS Code, so you may have to wait for some functionality. > > Development in Python has been night and day moving from VS Code to PyCharm. I build various tools and scripts, and the in-built tooling helps identify issues whilst I'm typing, and helps provide fixes and better practices. It also has native support for frontend (HTML, CSS, JS) in one place. The ability to connect to databases is huge as well, makes things SO much simpler being able to stay in one screen. ----- Page: 1 / 16\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/186625/pycharm?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/186625/pycharm) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
