Big PyCharm fan. I have used all the major IDEs, both python specific and general, and I always found they got in the way more than the time-saving features they purported to offer. I always switched back to a basic text editor (Sublime Text). But then I found PyCharm and actually spent a weekend learning how to use it. It's a real pleasure to use. Intellisense stuff works very well, some of the refactoring features are excellent, and all the handy things like ctrl-enter to import things, ctrl-n/ctrl-shift-n to jump to different code in projects, really speeds up development. I still use Sublime Text for short scripts, but for any major projects i use PyCharm for everything. The django support (with debugging, including template debugging) is killer. Also my one interaction with the development has been excellent. I reported a bug (i did have to sign up to their bug track which was a bit of a nuisance), and the bug was fixed in a day and a new update with the fix pushed out to me within a week. Impressive iteration cycle given the size of the software.
