Cons

More LambdaTest Cons →

"Sometimes, the product is too complex to use.""In Visual Studio we still don't have anything which can pinpoint memory leaks on a certain code line.""I would like to see more integration in the solution.""One of the problems with this solution is you need to be highly technically skilled to operate it, it is not for everyone.""The price is reasonable, but it's not the best.""It needs more integration with other tools for monitoring. Microsoft also needs to make it more modern to make it work with microservices and the cloud. It is a bit outdated currently.""The documentation is limited.""The performance could be faster."

    Visual Studio Professional Edition provides an IDE for all supported development languages. As of Visual Studio 2010, the Standard edition was dropped. MSDN support is available as MSDN Essentials or the full MSDN library depending on licensing. It supports XML and XSLT editing, and can create deployment packages that only use ClickOnce and MSI. It includes tools like Server Explorer and integration with Microsoft SQL Server also. Windows Mobile development support was included in Visual Studio 2005 Standard, however, with Visual Studio 2008, it is only available in Professional and higher editions. Windows Phone 7 development support was added to all editions in Visual Studio 2010. Development for Windows Mobile is no longer supported in Visual Studio 2010; it is superseded by Windows Phone 7.
