Overall Satisfaction with Visual Studio IDE

Visual Studio is the best IDE for software development available on the market. Since 2005, the versions of Visual Studio [have become] even better [through] the updates. Visual Studio is a guide with real-time assistance for your development, regardless of the language you use, be it C # / VB or C ++, JavaScript or Python. You can use it for other languages as well with the available extensions on the marketplace.
  • Visual Studio in many editions makes it easy to work by helping you maintain the code or markup context from the beginning, with features like Inspection Setting, and improved GoTo, that allow you to easily filter and choose to search only one type of item.
  • Has a lot of tools for different programming languages.
  • Is easy to set up and is complete for software development.
  • The hardware consumption is high on normal computers. To use all features you need to have a computer with a good hardware available.
  • The enterprise edition is a little expensive. The community edition does a lot of things, but if you need the enterprise, the price is quite high.
  • Works well only in Windows. Visual Studio has an edition for Mac but it is not complete as the Windows edition.
  • We started using c# inside Visual Studio IDE. It was the best choice [for our] company because Visual Studio is the best IDE to work with C#.
  • We use Azure Cloud, Visual Studio has a lot of good extensions to work with Azure.
It’s the most complete IDE to work with professional coding. As your project develops, the likelihood that you will restructure and refactor codes that you or others have already written will increase. Many languages, such as C #, VB, and now C ++, support powerful built-in refactoring options, such as extract method and rename, from the Quick Actions menu in the Visual Studio Editor.
For of plenty languages, web and desktop software as well. To use in a Windows environment and working with c#, c++ or VB languages the IDE is awesome! To work with a Mac environment or work with Python or PHP I think there are other IDEs that do the same quality or even better.
