Hey ppl.. this is me Dhaval. back in computers reviews.. since 2 months havents written any review on computers so today planed to write on any computer - software product.
KNOW WHAT.. previous to this review.. the review was 24999no. of review.. this is 25,000 no. of review on MouthShut.com
ok.. I am writing the review on the one of the best and most awaited product from Microsoft named Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
I will tell you something about What is Microsoft Visual Studio .NET and why it is the most awaited product from Microsoft.
NOTE: I have written some little things about Visual Studio .NET in my earlier review of Visual Studio 6.0 and if you want to know what is Visual Studio please read my review on Visual Studio
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET is also known as Microsoft Visual Studio 7.0
Why Awaited: After the releasing of Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 (you can find my review on this product also.) in 1998, Microsoft started development on the next version of Microsoft Visual Studio i.e. 7.0 (.NET was not given at that time). In the development of 7.0 version on Visual Studio, later on as development was goin on.. Microsoft decided to make it in such a way that it helps the
programmers or software developers to work in same IDE.. no need to change each and everytime the software just one click and user can switch to other language, so Microsoft came up with Microsoft .NET Framework and then Microsoft decided to add some services like XML, Web Services and lots other things.. and also new language C#. Microsoft introduced .NET in 2000 to the press and told that Microsoft is going to Microsoft .NET in early 2002 and also Visual Studio .NET (now .NET is included...).
Product Information: Microsoft Visual Studio .NET comes in total three edition.
1) Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Professional
2) Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Developer
3) Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architect
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Professional: It comes with the 5 CDs. 4CDs are for the Visual Studio .NET and last 5th CD is for the Windows Components Update. Which updates the computer.
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Developer: It comes with the 6 CDs. same as Professional but 6th CD contains Microsoft Visual Source Safe 6.0c
Microsoft Visual Studio .NET Enterprise Architecture: It comes with the 7 cDs. same as previous but 7th CD is having Microsoft Visio 2002.
PRICE:
As all Microsoft product, this product is also very costly.
VS .NET Professional - 1,079$ - 53,950 rs.
VS .NET Enterprise Developer - 1,799$ - 89,950 rs.
VS .NET Enterprise Architect - 2,499$ - 1,24,950 rs.
Isnt it very costly?
Other:
VS.NET is build with the one of the best and very latest technology from Microsoft called .NET or .NET Framework, which enables users to develop web services very fast.. and it helps reducing the codes, the major thing in VS.NET is about that, that its having XML support and XML is very best language for the Web Services and feature web
develpoment.
My Conclusion: This is one of the best product from the Microsoft, but its very costly.. but to get the best product.. u have to pay. The main thing about .NET I liked is.. integrated IDE.. which means now programmers dont need to change the application when they want to write in diffrent language.. just they need to switch to language.. no need of closing and opening diffrent application,
Microsoft tried this before in version 6.0 with the J++ and InterDev but Microsoft failed.. I mean.. its not that much nice.. but in .NET its very perfect.
One thing which I liked about this is now its coming with MSDN - HELP FILE LIBRARY.
Installation: Installation takes a lots of time..
Enterprice Architect takes nearly 1hr. with 128 MB RAM.. I am having p4 - 1.5GHZ and 128MB RAM , Windows XP and it has taken 1hr with full. Its installation is also very nice.. very customizable.. takes about 2.8 GB
dont no abt Developer and Professional Edition.
Please leave comment and rate it..
