There are slight differences, I believe. IntelliJ is also a little more cumbersome, since you have to map the modules to specific languages. I do mostly just use IntelliJ with plugins these days though.

I always feel a bit silly, because I pay for their "all products" pack, but only really use IntelliJ, because I bought it before realizing the plugins really were 99% the same as the specialized IDEs in most cases (CLion isn't, I think). At this point it's cheaper to just pay the ongoing renewal fee, I think.

The only reason I keep paying for the “All Products” pack is because I like to use CLion for Rust and come light C and C++ work. Goland is also different enough to justify paying for at least CLion and Goland, but at that point, the “All Products” pack still makes sense.

Rust support is the same in intellij and clion, except clion has the debugger which intellij does not have
