I consider that Eclipse is more an Extensible Platform than it is an IDE 
but IntelliJ, JBuilder...etc are IDEs with varying degrees of extensibility.

For ultimate team productivity in performing specific development tasks 
where the extensibility of and availability of Plug Ins is not a factor, 
then IntelliJ may be a good choice.  Like the early days of "Word Perfect 
Rocks" or "Wordstar Rocks" or today replace("%s Rocks", "%s", 
"[emacs|vi|...]"), beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
