Hi Alexander,

I think that the best IDE for you will depend on the needs and requirements of your project, you need to consider that KDS is a newer IDE and slightly less "mature" than IAR, it is free of charge and unlimited, while the free IAR version has a code size limitation (16 KByte for ARM Cortex-M0+).

On the following links you can review the features of both IDEs:

Kinetis Design Studio Integrated Development |Freescale

IAR ARM

Hope it helps!
