We use it for project development, including tasks such as web API, hosted services, mini-tests, and more.

The valuable feature is that it provides a basic template for everything and built-in debugging tools. They definitely save me time.

Compared to 2019, the 2022 version runs much smoother. The older version used to freeze if I had too many consoles open. The 2022 version is lighter and performs significantly better. Also, the ID itself is quite lightweight.

The UI is fine; they've kept it consistent for a while now, so it's familiar.

The hot reload feature is good, but sometimes it doesn't work. It could be improved.

Also, the solution is heavy. If it could become lighter, it would attract a larger user base.

I have used the solution since 2008, so for the past 15 years. I’m currently using the latest version from 2022.

The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten, with ten being the highest.

If you have multiple windows open, up to three is fine. However, when you exceed three windows, especially on individual laptops, it tends to slow down the system. It is heavy; it is not a light solution.

We have around ten users for the solution.

The setup process is straightforward, the only thing is the downloadable file is a bit large in size. The deployment process is quite simple.

You just need to download the file, double-check it, have an administrator, and you're good to go. It takes approximately 20 minutes to complete the setup.

It can be implemented in-house. We have to keep the updates running; that is it. There is no other maintenance required.

I would rate the solution a seven on a scale from one to ten, with one being the most affordable and ten being the most expensive.

I recommend the solution to all. It enhances productivity. Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We use it for comprehensive support in software development, encompassing tasks such as code writing, unit testing, and deployment to both cloud and on-premises services.

It proved versatile for diverse purposes, serving as a valuable tool for developing solutions across web, desktop, and mobile platforms. It facilitated not only coding activities but also aided in managing repositories and deploying applications to various environments, whether they be cloud-based or on-premises infrastructure.

Within Visual Support, there are three versions available, each housed in distinct containers. I'm focusing on the Enterprise version due to its customizable nature. This version boasts additional features, such as a pricing application for enhanced functionality and comprehensive unit testing coverage. The testing capabilities extend to diverse features, providing a thorough examination of different aspects. Notably, the Enterprise version facilitates seamless integration with Microsoft products, leveraging the ease of connectivity within the Microsoft ecosystem. Moreover, it supports integration with open-source products, including Python, allowing for a flexible and inclusive approach to development.

When using Visual Support for web development, challenges arise when specific components require hardware configurations beyond the application's scope. Efforts are directed at enhancing the IDE and introducing features for seamless collaboration, extending to Azure with the Explore version. This version incorporates "live share," enabling real-time code collaboration among team members. Despite its advantages, challenges in diverse cloud environments may prompt the uninstallation of the application or entire development environment for resolution.

I have been working with it for approximately thirteen years.

The stability is noteworthy because Visual Studio offers both a release and a preview version. The release version is reliable, free of issues, and suitable for general use. However, for those seeking additional features and improvements, the preview version is available. This version allows users to test new features directly and report any issues to the community for resolution. While encountering some issues in the preview version, they are typically addressed promptly through community feedback, resulting in a stable and refined release version shortly thereafter. I would rate it eight out of ten.

High scalability makes it a strong recommendation, especially for enterprise-level development, given its robust capabilities as an integrated development environment. I would rate it ten out of ten.

I've interacted with Microsoft support, but the community support for Visual Studio testing has been particularly outstanding. Unlike conventional support, the community channels provide an open and collaborative environment, similar to open-source platforms. This allows users to easily report issues, open discussions, and communicate effectively, making it a gateway to a more responsive and interactive support experience.

Having used various products at different companies, I must highlight that Microsoft's development technology, particularly in the realm of databases, has proven to be more intuitive and superior. It demonstrated a higher level of user-friendliness and efficiency.

The initial setup is straightforward. Simply download the controller and proceed with the installation, selecting the desired options for a new environment and clicking through the prompts. I would rate it nine out of ten.

Setting it up in the initial stages used to be a time-consuming process, often taking more than an hour. This was primarily due to the need to download setup data, often distributed on CDs or DVDs, and then proceed with the installation. Additionally, a decade ago, machines were not as swift, further extending the setup time. However, in recent years, there's been a more efficient option. Users now have two options: an online installation and an offline installation. For the online version, users simply download it and direct it to the storage directory on their machines.

The pricing varies depending on the version, and with three options available (Community, Professional, and Enterprise), you can choose based on your needs. While the enterprise version can be relatively expensive due to its comprehensive features, I find the license I currently possess to be reasonable, considering it includes the full suite without additional activations or charges.

Overall, I would rat it ten out of ten.

My first use case was to develop Microsoft Windows tools in .Net Framework (formerly from 3.5). Later I developed web platforms in ASP .NET and lately, I have developed APIs in both .NET Framework and NET Core, the latest in NET 6.

The platforms that I develop in Windows environments and do not have CI/CD systems I deploy them directly from Visual Studio. The entire Windows ecosystem is well managed by Visual Studio.

When I program in Microsoft Windows I usually use Visual Studio.

Microsoft Visual Studio is a must-have tool if you work in Windows environments.

Organizations working on a large number of workstations or organizations that are just starting out have a complete tool for use in several versions, most popularly free. So starting or developing a project under these conditions is extremely affordable.

But back to the main feature, with Microsoft Visual Studio you have a Swiss army knife of software development (integration, development, debugging, and deployment) complete and free in its most popular version.

The features I found most valuable are those related to the Microsoft Windows ecosystem. The famous umbrella that Microsoft extends over its products.

Working with Azure or SQL Server (connect, implement, deploy, etc.) is extremely easy, a common feature in all Microsoft products.

Deploying to Azure or Windows Server with IIS is also extremely easy and enjoyable.

Finally, integration with Git has improved a lot in the latest versions, as well as integration with GitHub and Copilot.

Efficiency is the main focus. Since Visual Studio's inception, it has been a race of constant improvements and attempts to improve the efficiency of the tool in every release. However, crashes and freezes are common when you work with the tool for a long time. The problems get worse when you have more than one project under development and then you need a very powerful computer to be able to perform complex developments. Even having a very powerful computer, as in my case, does not prevent you from having freezes from time to time.

Long installation or upgrade times are sometimes a problem.

I've used the solution for more than ten years.

I had previously tried other environments such as Atom or Sublime Text, but none offered the capabilities of Microsoft Visual Studio.

The most popular version of Microsoft is the Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition. Making it free gives it a boost in all types of organizations.

The platform's use cases depend on the entire system diagram. For instance, if we have login software, it determines the users' access level. It helps admin users in uploading and managing user accounts. Other users can register, validate passwords, save, download, and upload tasks.

The system can efficiently manage the databases.

They could add new modules to the platform for enhanced functioning. If we have a new system, we can add new features and improve the product to make it better than the previous system.

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio's latest version, 6.0, for two years.

Visual Studio is stable.

It is a scalable platform.

Previously, we used Sublime for backend connectivity. We switched because Sublime is a basic and not a standard tool for companies. We can create only small projects using it. However, Microsoft Visual Studio is an open-source tool that offers a lot of technologies. With its help, we can develop applications in various languages, create Windows or iOS software, and even build console applications.

The setup process is easy if we are already working on a project. It is complex if we want to create a new project from start to end. The time taken for deployment depends on what kind of project we are working with. In case of any queries, we refer to YouTube videos, ChatGPT, and Google to find the solutions.

I'm using the platform's open-source version.

If you're working on a simple project, Microsoft Visual Studio might be more than you need. You can go for it if you plan to create bigger software. It offers a wide range of built-in features. I rate it a nine out of ten.

I use Microsoft Visual Studio for data modeling.

I like the product's connection with Azure analytics services and the ability to build the model on the cloud.

The tool's interface should be more user-friendly.

I have been working the solution for six months.

The solution has good stability and performance. I recommend it to others and rate it a six out of ten. I advise others to understand the process before implementing it.

We use Visual Studio for website development and related tasks. It's been quite helpful for us.

From a professional perspective, I've been using Visual Studio since childhood, so I find it very useful. The code analysis tool is particularly valuable as it eliminates the need for manual code reviews.

Many essential features are built-in, making it a great tool. Additionally, it allows for easy integration with other tools like MS Teams, which enhances its usefulness.

Sometimes, the deprecation of packages can be a challenge. Although Visual Studio provides suggestions when we compile and encounter deprecated packages, it can still be confusing. Even after multiple attempts, we may struggle to fix these deprecated packages and related issues. So, it is one of the areas of improvement in Visual Studio.

I have been working on a website that I inherited from a client, and when I tried to run it on my system, I discovered that some of the packages were either depreciated or no longer in use. It would be helpful if Visual Studio could suggest and handle such unused packages in a more user-friendly manner.

I am suggesting this as an area of improvement because recently I was working on a bigger client project. The project was functioning correctly on my system but not on another system. Later, I found that some packages were depreciated, which might have caused the issue. However, we couldn't determine the exact reason for the difference in behavior because we used the same ZIP file and the same Visual Studio version. Then, when the person tried to run the same code on her system, it didn't work. It seemed to be related to the deprecated packages. Ultimately, the solution we eventually found was to set up a new system for her, reinstalling Microsoft Visual Studio and related components.

Another area that could greatly benefit from Microsoft within Visual Studio is unit testing. It's a pain point for every software developer. If Microsoft can provide better tools or features related to unit testing, it would be really helpful. Especially when working on complex projects, writing comprehensive test cases can be time-consuming. However, clients often cannot afford to pay for that additional time in the competitive market.

So in future releases, having some automation capabilities or built-in support for generating test cases would be great. Although we can integrate third-party automation testing tools, they are often paid solutions. For example, I've noticed the presence of plugins like ChatGPT in Visual Studio Code, but I'm not fully aware of their capabilities. Therefore, if Visual Studio could offer some level of automation for test cases, it would be a valuable addition.

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio for over 15 years.

I would rate the stability of Visual Studio a ten out of ten.

Microsoft has gained a lot of confidence in the market, so I would rate the scalability of Visual Studio around eight out of ten.

Based on my recent experience, sometimes, we faced difficulties with the same set of codes. Therefore, considering the recent incident, I leaned toward an eight and not a ten for scalability.

In my company, around 20 people are using this solution.

The initial setup is very simple. Microsoft has made it very easy to set up.

Price-wise, it is good. We are using the paid versions, and the price is reasonable. For our company, it's a genuine price.

I have only worked with Visual Studio.

Overall, I rate it a ten. It's very user-friendly and feature-rich.

However, there's always room for improvement in the product. Features like automation test cases to meet market requirements would be beneficial.

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio for development and C-sharp coding.

In our organization, we use it for debugging while installing and using whatever package we require. Hence, it is an independent platform, which adds to some of its useful features.

The time that it takes to load the application can be reduced. The aforementioned details can be considered for improvement.

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio for nearly three years.

It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

It is a scalable solution, and it is very easy to scale. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

There are so many people using it owing to the fact that it is similar to a credit card system.

The solution is suitable for medium enterprises.

The technical support is good. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten since I don't have any issues with the support.

Previously, I was using HTML Editor for JavaScript coding. I got into development, and that's why I switched to Microsoft Visual Studio.

The installation of the solution is easy.

I don't have any cloud, but there is some setup file available for installation, and I use that.

We use Microsoft VSTS to deploy CI/CD pipelines, so it automatically builds the application and publishes it. Therefore, we don't face any problems.

There are two engineers taking care of the deployment.

The solution doesn't require any maintenance.

I had evaluated some other options. I chose to go with Microsoft since my organization's technology is based on Microsoft, which is why it is easier to work with Microsoft Visual Studio.

Microsoft Visual Studio is a vast application. We need to explore more and make use of it. I would definitely recommend the solution to those planning to use it.

I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.
