Overall Satisfaction with Visual Studio IDE

Visual Studio Code provides developers with a powerful development tool, while avoiding the expense of the full Visual Studio Pro, Enterprise or others. It is available on multiple OS platforms, making it ubiquitous. It allowed us to streamline the number of development tools used (Vim, Sublime, etc.).
  • Clean UI
  • Fast
  • Intellisense
  • Code debugging options directly in IDE
  • High Learning Curve
  • More expensive than competitors
  • Less time debugging
  • Very organized so it generated great team collab and more efficiency
  • Positive ROI
Sincerely, my company just used it, so I don't have many usage data about competitors, however I **heard** that their autocompete is very good and I can testify for it.
When you are coding complex applications it is good to use such a powerful tool such as Visual Studio. Also it is the best and most suitable IDE for C# development and programming. Not worth it if you are debugging or programming in scripting languages such as php, JavaScript or python. (Scripting is by usage, however I am referring to the most general purpose of a language.)
