Overall Satisfaction with Visual Studio IDE

Visual Studio is used only by the systems department of our company, and in turn is implemented by certain developers depending directly on the programming language of the project. We provide support, improvements and new developments to different web platforms of our customers, allowing them to grow and improve the functionalities of their applications efficiently.
  • Visual Studio adapts to any programming language, including many features and extensions that make it an excellent IDE. It also has tools that facilitate and improve the user experience and allows you to easily filter and search only one type of element.
  • It has its own version control that allows you to maintain local change history.
  • Is easy to set up and is complete for software development.
  • It has a lot of hardware requirements.
  • It consumes a lot of memory, and even more when you work on large projects with different architectures.
  • It only works well for Windows.
  • Visual Studio IDE provides demo versions that the user can use to explore and adapt to this development environment, but these demo versions have limited functions, which leads the user to want to buy the full versions of this product. It is a commercial strategy that many Development companies implement in their products to assess the impact they generate on users.
IntelliJ IDEA is also a development IDE, but it is much more limited. The tools and methods of execution and debugging are much more complex, and there is not much support.
The use of Visual Studio will depend a lot on the project or application that you want to develop. This IDE works very well with frameworks like ASP and programming languages such as C # and Visual Basic, both with MVC. It is characterized by being able to perform complex and robust processes from the server.
