(i)pdb is built in and is simple to use

pdb and its variants (my favorite is PuDB) are generally difficult to use in complex, corporate projects. If you've got a multi-process, multi-thread Python project running on a remote host, you'll need a really full-featured debugger to work with it effectively. I recommend Wing IDE or PyCharm for that.

There's this: https://pypi.org/project/rpdb/ for remote debugging. Celery also ships with its own rdb: http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/v2.3.3/tutorials/debugging....

Certainly not a counter, as I'm less familiar with Wing and Pycharm's debugging features, but both of these have been helpful to me in multi-process, multi-thread python environments.
