Overall Satisfaction with ReSharper

I've been using ReSharper for many years, win/web forms, and mobile (even xamarin forms). I am currently using it in Logistics ASP.NET MVC applications and ASP.NET Core Web Apis.
  • Shortcuts are awesome. Navigation through the code gets really easy.
  • I use it every day: go to the last modified position, go to the next error, find usages. All refactoring shortcuts!
  • Color identifiers let me identify variables from constants, methods, properties, and types. I use this feature and I can not live without it.
  • Move code by scope is handy.
  • Adding missing references automatically.
  • Pricing: tend to be high.
  • After a while slows the Visual Studio. It gets super slow, even for small projects.
  • It kind of makes you dependent. It feels uncomfortable when you don't have it, and that makes you unproductive.
  • Depending on what version you use, ReSharper shows errors that don't exist. On later versions, it works fine.
  • Code fast
  • Automatic helps with dependencies
  • Refactors
  • Shortcuts
  • Color identifiers
  • ReSharper saved me HOURS of code writing.
  • Saved me time to find issues in code.
  • Saved me time finding dependency issues.
  • It helps to create understandable code, so that others can continue the work without wasting time.

ReSharper is suitable for all legacy and new projects. It helps keep the code clean, short and understandable. The color codes help you quickly identify what you are looking for, and the shortcuts are the best. While Visual Studio made progress on these points on its own, it seems to me that ReSharper has a lot to offer. Today it happens to me that I can't think of another productivity tool without thinking of ReSharper first.
