Overall, very happy with this IDE. For a beginner and advanced programmer alike this software is equally good resource to develop excellent apps.
I'm a .NET developer and the fact that this IDE enables you to rapidly develop all kinds of applications targeting all kinds of platforms easily is what I like the most about this software. Additionally, this software is available for free as a community edition which helps developers who cannot afford the full version of the software. I like the fact that I can develop office add-ins and cross-platform and mobile apps all in one IDE.
The installer comes with many options and not much detail is provided for each component being installed other than the title and brief description. If not careful, the install can take up tens of GB hard disk space. I feel there is a lot of unnecessary components shown even for a simple install. Maybe a different approach to presenting install options would be better. Also, sometimes VS is slow to start up and consumes a lot of cpu and disk resources. Other times, VS crashes sometimes.

We are working with very large scale application and it will provide easy development,lots of inbuilt functionalities which will help us to reduce cost of development as well as maintainability of application. We have very large team and we manage and update our application easily using this software.
It will provide us many built in functionality. We are using it create web application into MVC. All the folder structures created automatically. It provides lots of third party DLL support and built in nuget package manager.It provides also performance monitoring tools.It provides Unit test case in build template so we can easily create unit test project and maintain it.Initial version of visual studio are ok but after visual studio 2010 it was awesome. We can also manage database project using SSDT project and it will help lots of to manage database across the many developer.
If you are going to work with large application then visual studio is perfect platform for you but if you are working with small application then there is many batter option in term of cost and time also.
