Hyland Document Filters vs. Microsoft Visual Studio Code

It is well suited for receiving and identifying documents, types, and file formats. It does a great job of allowing us to automate the processing of documents that we receive digitally. It is a great tool and reduces the manual processing involved in identifying and organizing documents that we receive.

Microsoft Visual Studio Code is highly recommended for the development of systems and / or complex applications entrusted to work teams under a specific methodology, and its use is also recommended for the maintenance of previously developed applications.

It is not recommended as a learning environment for developers with little experience as the learning curve would be too high

• Identifies document types
• Identifies document formats
• Makes tiring and indexing our documents easier and reduces manual processing.

• Very accessible -- it's compatible with all platforms and environments, free to install, and fast to open
• Strong native support for many languages, and very strong extensibility to provide advanced language features
• Git integration is top-notch, often displaying a better history, diff, and merge interface that is otherwise available in version control systems

Incentivized

• All of Hylands products are great they are a leader in document management.

• Lack of button bar like ones found in Visual Studio.
• Lack of integrated help that could link to YouTube, Channel 9, or other Microsoft videos on how to learn about features.
• Integration with Team Foundation Server.
• Would like to see it having some sort of integration into a Web API testing harness.

Solid tool that provides everything you need to develop most types of applications. The only reason not a 10 is that if you are doing large distributed teams on Enterprise level, Professional does provide more tools to support that and would be worth the cost.

Looking at our current implementation, Microsoft Visual Studio Code is perfect for writing code and performing debug operations. Integration with SVN repository is easy and changes can be tracked effectively. Microsoft Visual Studio Code supports developers to write code productively using syntax check and easy customization. Microsoft Visual Studio Code also provides support for IntelliSense which prompts suggestions for code completion. It is easy to step through code using interactive debugger to inspect the root cause of error quickly.

Active development means filing a bug on the GitHub repo typically gets you a response within 4 days. There are plugins for almost everything you need, whether it be linting, Vim emulation, even language servers (which I use to code in Scala). There is well-maintained official documentation. The only thing missing is forums. The closest thing is GitHub issues, which typically has the answers but is hard to sift through -- there are currently 78k issues.

[Microsoft] Visual Studio Code beats the competition due to its extensibility. Their robust extensions architecture combined with the plethora of mostly free extensions written by the community can't be beaten. The fact that this tool itself is provided by a world-recognized company, Microsoft, free of charge is phenomenal. The goodwill garnered by them is immeasurable. Other tools I've used were missing features or were just too rigid, too complicated, or too unsophisticated for my liking. The fact that VS Code is easy to mold to my will with the right extensions seals the deal.

• Makes a large amount of scanned material searchable.
• Allows us to easily find relevant documents.
• Easy to use and configure.

• Positive impact on minimizing time wasted by employees with software installation and setup
• Positive impact on reducing spend on software licensing
• Positive impact on minimizing time used to manage different applications for different purposes - this performs all of the functions we need in basic coding
