Visual Studio Reviews & Product Details

I really like how Visual Studio helps me stay organized when I’m coding. The IntelliSense and debugging tools save me a ton of time, especially when I’m still learning. The Git integration is smooth and makes version control a lot less stressful. I also like that it supports so many languages and has extensions for almost everything I need.

It can be pretty heavy on my laptop sometimes, especially when I have multiple projects open. The loading time can be slow, and the updates usually take a while. Some of the menus still feel cluttered and can be confusing if you’re new to it, but once you get used to it, it’s manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a great IDE with many features and excellent IntelliSense. What I like most is the auto-complete function, which helps me every day. This IDE makes coding much easier for me, allowing me to create any app or web app with ease. The installation process is also simple and can be completed in just a few clicks.

This IDE uses a lot of system resources, which sometimes causes my computer to slow down. To run this IDE smoothly, a bit higher configuration system is needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the VS Code extension takes a longer time to start. Only when we are using an old laptop so that deployment and retrieval processes get slow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how Visual Studio makes coding easier with IntelliSense, live error checking, and great debugging features. The integrated Git tools and extensions really speed up my workflow and make it feel like an all-in-one development hub. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual Studio is powerful but can feel heavy and slow at times, especially when loading large projects or starting up. Occasional crashes and long update times can also interrupt workflow.

While I love Visual Studio… except when it decides to take a coffee break during startup. And sometimes, the debugger feels like it’s debugging me instead of my code Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Visual Studio to be a powerful IDE that allows me to run demos of my code as I write them. It really helps with coding by vibing with the add-ins. It's super easy for me to publish applications once I've finished writing, letting me move them to a live environment without hassle. I also like how it helps me keep track of everything with Git and ensures my repository is always updated with version control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes a bit long to load, which is a bit annoying. Some of the setup takes a little while, so it's not really out-of-the-box; you have to spend a bit of time setting up your environment even though it's very good with some things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I regularly use Visual Studio in my job, and it’s one of the most reliable tools in my daily workflow. It gives me everything I need in one place: coding, debugging, testing, and project management. The debugger is especially strong and helps me find problems quickly without wasting time.

I also like how well it supports different languages and frameworks, and how easy it is to extend with plugins. It can feel heavy sometimes, but overall it’s very stable and powerful, and it helps me work faster and more efficiently every day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike about Visual Studio is that it can feel quite heavy, especially on slower machines or large solutions. Startup time and indexing can be slow, and sometimes it uses a lot of memory even for simple tasks.

I also find that frequent updates occasionally change small things in the interface or break extensions, which can interrupt my workflow. It’s not a deal-breaker, but it can be a bit frustrating during busy workdays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Visual Studio to write, build, debug, and test software applications. I love how everything is in one place and that the smart code suggestions, or IntelliSense, save time. The debugger is great for finding errors easily, and I appreciate the wide range of extensions that let me customize it to my needs. It feels powerful yet easy to use. The initial setup was fairly easy because the installer guides you to choose only the workloads you need, making it straightforward even for beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual Studio can feel heavy and slow at times, especially on low-spec systems. It uses a lot of memory, takes time to start, and the interface can feel cluttered for simple tasks. Updates can also be large and occasionally cause minor issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual Studio provides a very smooth development experience when working with Go for building APIs and microservices. Ease of Use stands out with its intuitive UI, powerful IntelliSense, and straightforward code navigation. The Number of Features available—ranging from strong debugging tools to Git integration and a vast extension ecosystem—makes it highly adaptable to a Golang workflow. The Ease of Integration with version control and third-party tools further accelerates productivity, especially in a microservices environment where switching between multiple services is seamless. With frequent use, I find that the Frequency of Use naturally increases because the environment is optimized for efficiency. Additionally, Microsoft offers solid Customer Support, and the active community provides ample resources for troubleshooting and learning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visual Studio often feels a bit heavy when compared to more lightweight editors, and setting it up for Go development isn’t as straightforward right from the start—it typically takes a few additional steps and the installation of some extensions. When working on larger projects, I’ve noticed it tends to use more resources than I would prefer. Additionally, although the debugging and testing tools are robust, they don’t always feel as finely tuned for Go as they do for .NET projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
