The service right now is far too expensive. You need to pay per user. The solution needs more reports and more dashboards as well as more details for each originated spare test case or best guess in test cases. There are still some issues in the results. There is an extension integrated with the… more»What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
For the cloud services option, you buy a subscription per account or per user. This costs around $52 a month per person.What other advice do I have?
We are using the cloud deployment model, on Azure cloud services as well as an on-premises deployment model. We have around 100 quality engineers that we eventually want to get on the system. To do this, we need to apply a test specific license for using and testing the modules in a real case or in… more»

What is most valuable?
Code testing is the most valuable feature of this solution for developing software. The unit testing functionality is very helpful.What needs improvement?
I would like to see better integration with the main product, Visual Studio. The tools for unit testing can be improved, giving a better ability to manage tests. I would like to see more plugins.

Prior to this solution, we used third-party tools. Once we used this solution it was much better because of the higher level of integration with the main product, as well as the overall code management.What other advice do I have?

What is most valuable?
The most valuable features are the SSIS reports, the deployment models, and the ability to interact with other Microsoft tools.What needs improvement?
The stability of this solution needs to be improved because sometimes it hangs and crashes. The speed at which deployment can be done has room for improvement. The support documentation that is available on the Microsoft website should be… more»Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

What is most valuable?
The main interface is very user-friendly. The system overall is very useable. If you have to start a new project or new area, the system and the tutorial are great.What needs improvement?
The database administration could be better; it would be nice if we could do every design related task also in Visual Studio what is possible in SQL Server Management Studio.What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
If you are buying the solution, it's quite pricey. They also offer a community version, which is a good approach.What other advice do I have?
At the start, many years ago, it was not the best solution, but now it is the best in a technical development environment. The solution is installed directly onto PCs. We're using the 2017 version; the last few years the solution hasn't changed too much. I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. It's my… more»RameshVelusamy

What is most valuable?
The interface is user-friendly.What needs improvement?
I particularly use some templates around BI that are called SQL servers, data, and tools, and they are an extension to Visual Studio. Some of them are like integration services that would benefit from some improvements, but I think Microsoft has other things that they might want to improve first. I… more»What other advice do I have?
It is a very good solution and on a scale from one to ten, I will rate it a nine. In the next release I would like to see better data flow.Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I know that for Java or for other programs like Python, you can use multiple development tools or client tools. But in Microsoft's case, I've never heard of someone using anything else than Visual Studio Test Professional.Vendor

The most valuable features are tools like IntelliSense and ReSharper. The running of unit tests in the background is helpful.What needs improvement?
The integration with Git needs improving because it is a bit disjointed and unpredictable. The diagrammatic representation of the database in the entity framework is helpful but it seems to have been removed.What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I think that the pricing is quite good.What other advice do I have?
Visual Studio is a good solution that I would recommend. My only complaints are about the Git integration and the removal of the diagrammatic representation of the database from the entity framework. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.Consultant
