We performed a comparison between ASP.NET and Microsoft Visual Studio based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two .NET Development Services solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We find the solution to be scalable."
"The solution is useful for seeing what old technology was before the new technology we use today, such as .NET."
"The solution's framework supports storing all client-side and server-side code in one place."
"The solution is easy to learn, understand and develop."
"The solution is easy to integrate and understand. It has a very good user interface and a lot of prebuilt tools, which require a lot less coding if we compare it to other solutions."
"The solution is very easy to maintain because UI management is simple and many libraries are available."
"The developer support for ASP.NET is a big positive. It's actually very good, and since there are so many people who use ASP.NET, it's easy to get responses to questions about ASP.NET in the broader community."
"It is seamless compared to Java or any other technology stack."
"The solution is stable, and it has no issues."
"Microsoft Visual Studio is a must-have tool if you work in Windows environments."
"The system can efficiently manage the databases."
"Windows Presentation Foundation or WPF is valuable. It's a tool to give clients a user interface for Windows applications. The summary for mobile applications is also very useful."
"Visual Studio's best feature is debugging, which isn't available with any other Microsoft development tool."
"While you're coding, it's really nice to be able to print stuff out and make sure that all the data is being organized the way you want it to be."
"What we like about Microsoft Visual Studio is that it's a comprehensive tool. It has features that work for different plans and it has a wide variety of use cases. It's also a powerful tool and it's quite efficient."
"The valuable feature is that it provides a basic template for everything and built-in debugging tools. They definitely save me time."
"In my opinion, this solution should improve their web toolkit."
"Performance is an area that can always be improved."
"In addition to the visual aspect, there is a need for ASP.NET to provide a robust visual front end like there was in the past."
"It should be open source or deployable to any operating system so that the dependency can be removed."
"In the future, I would like to see more AI and machine learning technologies made available in libraries."
"The solution's initial setup is intermediate, and it could be improved."
"The solution needs to support its framework on all devices used for mobile application development."
"Sometimes it can be really difficult to debug using ASP.NET. When there's an issue, trying to find out the cause is not always easy, so debugging is the top area for improvement, in my opinion."
"Technical support can be slow to respond at times."
"The tool's interface should be more user-friendly."
"The pricing for licenses could be reduced to make this solution more competitive."
"The stability of Microsoft Visual Studio could improve. There are times it hangs or stops working and I have to restart the program."
"I have faced configuration issues with Microsoft Visual Studio."
"The migration could improve in Microsoft Visual Studio. When I upgraded from 2017 and up to 2022 it was not smooth. There was a lot of manual hand-picking. Microsoft should put a higher budget for the database developers' section in Visual Studio."
"It would be great if they added some extra support for other languages that are available in the market and prepared it for the, let's say, crypto developers as we are going in the age of cryptocurrency."
"Microsoft Visual Studio could benefit from a more centralized education system."
