MyEclipse review
A broad enterprise Java IDE for teams willing to pay for integrated server tooling.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
MyEclipse is a desktop integrated development environment for Java developers and teams building, maintaining, and deploying enterprise applications. Its scope spans Java EE and Jakarta EE, Spring, Angular, React, Vue, REST services, Maven, databases, persistence, application servers, and WebSphere. Code completion, refactoring, real-time validation, debugging, unit-test launching, deployment, and REST tooling are included across Windows, macOS, and Linux. It is most closely suited to Java EE and application-server teams that want these capabilities in one paid IDE.
Pricing is structured as annual, per-user subscriptions. MyEclipse Standard costs $37 per user per year and covers Java EE and Jakarta EE development, standard web applications, deployment, database tooling, Maven support, and persistence libraries. Professional costs $74 and adds modern web framework support, TypeScript, modern web and JavaScript debugging, RESTful web services, and advanced database and Maven support. Secure editions add Secure Delivery Center: Professional Secure Edition costs $116, while Spring + AI Secure Edition costs $257. Spring + AI costs $173 and adds AI assistance for documentation, code reviews, simplification, test cases, and smart fixes.
The main strength is breadth across enterprise Java delivery workflows. MyEclipse supports Apache Tomcat, JBoss, WildFly, GlassFish, Jetty, WebLogic, and Payara, alongside WebSphere, Docker, OpenShift, Maven, Spring, and modern front-end frameworks. MyEclipse Blue adds WebSphere application server, WebSphere Portal Server, WebSphere Liberty Profile, remote and in-workspace WebSphere deployment, and advanced DB2 support; MyEclipse Bling combines Professional, Blue, Spring, and advanced WebSphere and Spring development features. Teams needing a focused, lower-cost Java editor may find the paid, tiered model excessive, while enterprise teams with mixed application-server and framework requirements should find the packaging more relevant.
