their IDE is clunky and will be wiped out if a top of the range product, such as Jetbrains, adds support for R I strongly disagree. I've used both and don't find RStudio clunky. And Jetbrains would need to do more than simply add support for another language to compete. RStudio is more than just and IDE. For one, there's Shiny, which makes it trivial to deploy slick web-based data products to end users. Then there's the fact that RStudio has multiple methods of compiling code and analysis into formal document formats suitable for publishing or presentation. RStudio isn't just an IDE, it's an entire ecosystem for coding, analysis, app development, and publication. It's not like Jetbrains couldn't make something like that, but it would essentially be a completely different product, not just one more supported language.
