Cloud cost insights have enabled proactive right sizing and predictable infrastructure spend
Infracost is actually a very good product; however, the improvement part could be on the pricing side because the non-free plans are a bit expensive and don't necessarily offset the savings. Feature-wise, I don't have a lot of complaints about this product; it's quite amazing with a good concept. I do think that with AI catching up, tools such as ChatGPT or Codex will be able to do what Infracost does, so they need to come up with something to differentiate their product. I choose that assessment because of the pricing part; if the pricing was much better, since the starter pack is $250 a month, I'm not sure we are always able to save that much every month, making it an expense instead of a saving. The only improvements needed for Infracost are on the pricing part.

Building AI-assisted disposable research tools has transformed how I automate data gathering
I believe IntelliSense is a good tool to work with, but I wish it could be strengthened in terms of auto suggestions and code rectification. It is efficient at this moment but has room for improvement. Firstly, there is room for improvement in IntelliSense auto suggestion and auto compilation. Although it is very good and robust, it can be improved. Secondly, I have noticed that it sometimes takes a little time to start up and can be a bit slow, perhaps because it consumes lots of RAM or CPU resources. If that can be improved, it would be beneficial. Regarding Visual Studio Professional 2022's AI capabilities, I believe it needs some improvement in accuracy and reliability. At the moment, while AI provides suggestions, I have to review and edit them. Although it has its concerns, it is good in that AI now gives a first draft, whereas in the past, humans had to write everything from scratch.

Pros

"The best feature Infracost offers is that the dashboard is very helpful because it is more visual to all stakeholders."
"Infracost has positively impacted my organization by helping me reduce my infrastructure cost and review expenses, and I am able to remove all unnecessary infrastructure."
"Infracost has positively impacted my organization by enhancing our engineering team's cost consciousness."
"Infracost has positively impacted my organization by enabling us to reduce our cloud bill without impacting performance, achieving at least a 20% reduction in the amount we spend on cloud."
"Visual Studio has pretty good support for Git conflict resolving features."
"Visual Studio Professional 2022 is a fully functional IDE with advanced capabilities that provide an edge over other platforms."
"The benefits that Visual Studio Professional 2022 provides combined with the pricing makes it a good choice."
"Capability in Visual Studio Professional 2022 means it is supporting all things like testing for my testing purpose, as well as the development; everything is integrated in Visual Studio Professional 2022."
 

Cons

"I think Infracost can be improved by connecting native and cloud practices; we could use some tools according to each cloud, but as a service, Infracost is very helpful."
"I would appreciate some improvements in terms of processing speed, and I would be happy to see a slightly better user interface from my perspective, but everything else is excellent."
"Infracost is actually a very good product; however, the improvement part could be on the pricing side because the non-free plans are a bit expensive and don't necessarily offset the savings."
"Infracost could be improved in terms of processing and the user interface, as there are times that these aspects could be enhanced."
"Apart from the editing feature, I would like to see improvement in Visual Studio Professional 2022 because performance has dropped significantly, making it currently about 100 times slower than Qt Creator, which is unreasonable to use in a multi-core environment such as the 128 cores that I use."
"One area I could suggest regarding improvements in deployment efficiency using Visual Studio Professional 2022 is that the context-aware code suggestion should be more tailored."
"Currently, Visual Studio Professional 2022 is not supporting the .TS, TypeScript code, which is a disadvantage, because with Playwright, we can do that in C#, but having Playwright code with TypeScript, I am not able to see any project or any suggestion about the .TS code."
"Regarding Visual Studio Professional 2022's AI capabilities, I believe it needs some improvement in accuracy and reliability."
