Advantages over what other form of development?
Eclipse has a long road behind it. It's the product of the development
wisdom of many experienced developers. It's hugely flexible and
extensible. It's probably hands-down the most widely adopted IDE for
Java development in the world. It has the largest community of support
not only in the myriad Eclipse forums, but also quick responses in such
first-rate forums as stackOverflow and Java Ranch.
These are the reasons I use Eclipse. My impression is that if you're
doing serious, professional Java development, there's no other way. I
say this knowing that a fine job has been done on NetBeans and IntelliJ,
but you expected a personal opinion, no?

I can't opine about NetBeans. I used it a few years back to do something
entry-level and found it easier to use than Eclipse for the same thing.
However, I wanted to use Eclipse for professional reasons.
You may be interested, besides Eclipse doc, in whatever utility my site
can be in setting up Eclipse, Subversion and other tools and technologies.
