Overall Satisfaction with Visual Studio IDE

Visual Studio IDE is mainly used across the whole organization. We use this software in my team as we develop a backend API in C# for our business websites and more. Visual Studio allows our software developers to increase their development speed and hugely improve the code quality inside our business. Visual Studio is a must go in my opinion.
  • Powerful debugger and easy to use.
  • Powerful tool to create apps.
  • Stability.
  • Not cross platform.
  • Expensive.
  • Slow to start.
  • Identifiable benefits.
  • Helps decision-makers.
Rider has a lot of potential but sInce Rider is a really new project, there is a lot of bugs in it. Other than that we didn't really try other alternatives to Visual Studio code for our C# applications.
As a team of web developers, we mainly use Visual studio to develop a backend API for our websites. We first used Visual Studio to create ASP.Net web applications but we realized that Visual Studio was not good enough for us to develop the client side of our websites. We really like it for all our backend code but prefer to use a different alternative for all our client-side code.
