Visual Studio was released for the general public in January 2008 (MSDN subscribers received it earlier). It consists of two different levels: Visual Studio Professional and Visual Studio Team System. Visual Studio for Office (which was a different product in VS 2005) is now included free in the base Professional product.

As an adjunct to Visual Studio, developers usually choosen subscription to the Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN).

With MSDN Professional & MSDN Premium Subscriptions you get:
  •   Windows client & server OS (including old versions)
  •   SQL Server 2005 (and 2008)
  •   MSDN Library & online managed newsgroups
  •   Technical Support Incidents
  •   Software assurance for Visual Studio

Additionally, with MSDN Premium you get:
  •   All Microsoft server products (eg. Exchange, BizTalk, MOM, SharePoint, etc)
  •   Microsoft Dynamics (CRM, Axapta, Great Plains, etc)
  •   Expression Web & Expression Blend
  •   Office Professional 2007 (production license)

Visual Studio Team System should be considered when you have a development and your primary development focus is around Microsoft development tools. Even if your organisation has established team software (such as version control, bug tracking, testing and test management, requirements management, planning and so forth), the full integration between all of these roles and the visibility they provide all team members (including management) is a worthwhile investment. If in doubt, call us - we’d be happy to come and provide an evaluation setup for you and examine if it is right for your team. Alternatively, you can download one from Microsoft all pre-setup in a virtual machine here.

Visual Studio Team System comes as a Studio product (with all roles), or with specific roles around Architects, Database Experts, Developers and Testers. You can also add Team Foundation Server (the central repository for your team artifacts) licenses by themselves.
