Microsoft Visual Studio Reviews

It is great for integration with Excel. For example, with Microsoft Access, you can make fast elementary analyses for the business. It is very easy to use.

Microsoft Visual Studio is a powerful product that we can use for visualization. We currently use it for simple business tasks and financial graphics.

The scalability could be improved.

We have been using this solution for more than ten years, and it is deployed on cloud.

The stability depends on the solution that you need. If you use a lot of data, it's not stable, but if you use it for business tasks, it's stable because they are simple tasks.

It is not scalable, and it could be better. About 200 people use Microsoft Visual Studio in my company.

I rate this solution a four out of ten. I would recommend this solution depending on the business case. It is a very simple and nice tool for simple tasks, but I would not recommend it for complex tasks.

I can't speak to performance because it's a cloud solution, and it depends on the cloud. When you are using real-time data, you need the results immediately, so if the cloud is not fast enough, it's an issue. Results aren't provided in real-time, but if it is on-premises, this can be avoided. But if it is on-premises, you must give up some features. Therefore, it is challenging to determine performance.

We use it basically for just coding. 

It's great for personal use. 

The extensions are valuable. I was able to download the extensions that were important to me. For example, I can use the solution to highlight syntax on the code or change the theme of Visual Studio. Or, if I'm working on PHP, I can download the PHP extension. If it's Python, I can download Python extensions. Et cetera. It's flexible and gives you options. 

The solution can scale. The solution is also very stable. 

It's updated regularly. 

The cost is reasonable, and they do have a free option.

I can't speak to any necessary improvements. It does what I need it to do. 

I'd like the product to become more secure. You could potentially, for example, download an extension that contains malware. 

I've used the solution over the past three or four years. 

The solution is stable. It has regular updates. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash. 

The solution is able to scale. 

I basically use the solution myself for my purposes. 

I didn't really use tech support so much. I wouldn't know much about it.

I did not previously use a different product. 

You just download the solution and have it running on your system. Therefore, the setup is pretty straightforward. It only takes a few minutes to get everything up and running. 

The implementation can be done in-house. We didn't need any integrators or consultants to assist us. 

There is a free version of the solution, which I 've used. I'd rate the cost of the solution overall eight out of ten. It's pretty reasonable. 

I would recommend the product to others. It supports different types of software development for websites, web apps, mobile apps, computer programs, or any other web services.

I'd rate it eight out of ten. 

I think Microsoft Visual Studio is a good tool.

I think it is very successful and easy to use. I currently do not see any areas to develop. Microsoft Visual Studio is an excellent product.

The stability is fine.

We have a very scalable solution with Microsoft Visual Studio.

We have not had the need to use technical support, but the website has been good.

The initial setup could be more straightforward. After the initial setup, it is easy to use and develop codes in different languages.

A license is required. I think it is a good product, but the price is high. They could sell it at a better price point.

I would rate Microsoft Visual Studio a nine out of ten.

We use Microsoft Visual Studio to write desktop applications.

The most valuable features of Microsoft Visual Studio are debugging and IntelliSense.

Microsoft Visual Studio could improve by making it faster. Every time they add a new feature or plugin it slows it down. They should allow the user to turn off features they do not use.

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio for approximately 18 years.

Microsoft Visual Studio has excellent stability.

There are six software developers using Microsoft Visual Studio.

I have not used the support from Microsoft Visual Studio.

The initial setup of Microsoft Visual Studio is easy.

Each of the six software developers that are using Microsoft Visual Studio self-manages their workstations.

The cost of using Microsoft Visual Studio monthly is approximately $300.

Microsoft Visual Studio is the best development environment out there, but it's also the slowest.

I would recommend others to use Microsoft Visual Studio.

I rate Microsoft Visual Studio a nine out of ten.

We use it for coding purposes and to integrate the code with the other code. It's helpful to know what bugs are in there.

I like that it works fine and that it performs better than competing products. I'm very happy with Microsoft Visual Studio.

It would be better if it didn't get stuck. Sometimes when we are writing code, we open too many tabs and modules, and it gets stuck.

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio for about four years.

Microsoft Visual Studio is a stable solution.

Microsoft Visual Studio is a scalable solution.

The initial setup is straightforward. It's not that complex. You can push or pull the code very quickly with some commands. The deployment time depends on how much code you are writing and the internet speed. It won't take much time. For me, on average, we write the code in the morning, and we submit that to the cloud at the end of the day. This takes hardly 15 to 20 minutes.

We use the free version, and you don't need a license. 

Compared to other platforms, this is the best one. I use Python and Anaconda for Python-related things. So, compared to these, I found Visual Studio to be far better as we can install with all the requirements. We can install most of the other things there. 

I would recommend this solution to potential users.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give Microsoft Visual Studio a nine.

We use the Microsoft Visual Studio environment to write code for applications.

The most valuable features of Microsoft Visual Studio are the way we are able to design code, deploy, and test our application. It is easy to move an artifact from the start to the deployment stage. It has well-defined processes that you can integrate with any team. Additionally, the solution is always improving.

Microsoft Visual Studio can improve by bringing back designers. They used to have designers for architecture charts and diagrams. They were able to do things, such as database design. If they can bring them back, it would be great.

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio for approximately 20 years.

Microsoft Visual Studio is stable.

Microsoft Visual Studio can scale in terms of expected loads. It is highly scalable.

We have four people who use the solution in my organization.

We were using another solution prior to Microsoft Visual Studio.

Microsoft Visual Studio's initial setup is easy. The process took approximately two to three hours.

We did the implementation of Microsoft Visual Studio in-house. We use one person for the deployment and support of the solution.

We have seen a return on investment using Microsoft Visual Studio. Within a week you can be more proficient and see the value.

You have to be a subscriber with a Visual Studio subscription to use the solution and the organization has to purchase a license that's linked to the account.

My advice to others is they should try Microsoft Visual Studio. They will achieve quicker results in terms of being able to deliver the project compared to the competition.

I rate Microsoft Visual Studio a ten out of ten.

Microsoft Visual Studio can be deployed on the cloud and on-premise.

I am using Microsoft Visual Studio for developing applications.

There is room for improvement in the price of the solution overall.

I have been using Microsoft Visual Studio for approximately one and a half years.

Microsoft Visual Studio is highly stable.

The scalability of Microsoft Visual Studio is good.

We have 10 to 15 people using this solution.

I have not contacted the support from Microsoft Visual Studio. We have not had any major issues.

The installation of the Microsoft Visual Studio in approximately 15 minutes.

The license is taken care of by my company and the price could be less expensive.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate Microsoft Visual Studio a nine out of ten.

The product integrates well with Azure Cloud, and it supports a ton of languages.

It also has a very good interface for Git source code management. Then there are a couple of add-ins or plug-ins that are out there in the marketplace that sometimes come in handy. From a developer standpoint, it does a very good job when it comes to debugging. It's a great development tool. 

The initial setup was pretty straightforward. 

The solution has good technical support.

It has a ton of options and that sometimes can become very, very overwhelming for a new person, a new developer. If something can be done around simplifying the product, for example, if there's a way, to just have enough options that are relevant for me, that could probably help.

The upgrade system is a bit complex. If they're upgrading something, then they should not force us to go to the next version. Maybe they should probably just release a fix or something that, and once we implement that fix, it gives us at least a choice that you're good for some time even if you don't want to upgrade.

A ton of time is just spent trying to keep ourselves up with the frequent releases that Microsoft rolls out. That is something that takes away from our productive time that we could have invested that time to enhance your application, and could have worked on additional features or functionalities, however, you end up spending that time just to upgrade your current solution to the next version that they roll out.

I've been using the solution for three years, however, my team members have been using it for ten to 12 years now.

In terms of the stability, the frequent upgrades that they roll out and then they force us to upgrade the solution, upgrade the tool itself, those sometimes can be a nuisance.

Most of the time, I see my team members end up spending a lot of time just upgrading the application to the next .NET framework. Or sometimes even the Microsoft Visual Studio version that gets rolled out and then you just have to do that upgrade. Therefore, the frequent upgrades that happen just don't support the older ones, they just take it off support, which causes a lot of nuisance.

The project that I'm part of is a huge team for sure. We are a team of a couple hundred. 

There have been instances in the past where we have reached out to Microsoft.

Support-wise, they're doing a fair job. I don't mind that. Whenever we reach out, we do get help.

It was a pretty easy setup. For us, basically, it comes with some preconfigured settings. The license that we have is a project from our customer. It is fairly straightforward.

We had a third party help us with the initial setup. We did not do it completely by ourselves.

I'm not someone who concerns myself with the cost. That said, my understanding is the license cost is a lot. Before customers roll out a license for any developer, they make sure that it is relevant and it's required for the job. 

We use the enterprise edition of the product. We're using the latest version.

We're end-users of Visual Studio. We're also using Microsoft Teams as well.

We have a couple of applications running on-prem. The roadmap is to move as much as possible onto Azure.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
