SmartTomcat Pro

SmartTomcat Pro helps you run and debug Apache Tomcat in IntelliJ IDEA Community and Ultimate. It is a modern freemium upgrade path for SmartTomcat users: the familiar Tomcat workflow, more free management features, and paid advanced deployment features for heavier Java web projects.

Use it when you want a lightweight Tomcat run configuration without switching IDE editions, while still having room to grow into artifact, WAR, Maven, Gradle, and multi-deployment workflows.

Switching from SmartTomcat

SmartTomcat Pro is designed for developers who like the original SmartTomcat workflow and want a maintained freemium version with more room for professional Tomcat projects. You can keep using the free features for basic Tomcat run/debug work, then upgrade when you need managed Tomcat users applied at runtime, artifact deployment, WAR deployment, Maven or Gradle integration, Tomcat downloads, or more than 2 deployments.
