Creativity Unleashed
Share your vision and build on the creative strengths of your team. Powerful prototyping, editing and visual design tools allow you to create what you can imagine. Spend less time debugging and more time creating code thanks to advanced code analysis and debugging tools. Explore new opportunities for your applications by unlocking the power of the processor on your local machine and in the cloud.

Simplicity Through Integration
Simple and seamless, this integrated environment lets developers use existing skills to model, code, debug, test, and deploy a growing number of application types. Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate simplifies common tasks and helps all team members explore the depth of the platform and partner community.

Quality Code Ensured
Powerful tools for managing projects, maintaining source code and finding and fixing bugs. Both testers and developers can use manual and automated testing coupled with advanced debugging tools to ensure they are building the right application, the right way.

Top Ten Benefits

IntelliTrace Eliminates 'No Repro'
Easily step through code that was previously executed on the same or another machine in order to identify what happened during the code execution and significantly cut down on time spent reproducing a bug.

Understand Existing Architectures
The Architecture Explorer and UML sequence diagrams help you explore and understand your existing code assets and their inter-dependencies.

Ensure Architectural Compliance
Use layer diagraming to define and communicate logical application architecture and optionally enforce architecture rules with check-in policies as code is created.

Profile Application Performance
Measure the performance of your applications and locate performance bottlenecks in CPU utilization, memory consumption, database interactions, Jscript/Ajax call patterns and concurrency synchronization. Use the performance profiler in conjunction with Load Testing to identify performance bottlenecks under stress and load.

Discover Common Coding Errors
Code Analysis is now simple to configure with customizable rule sets that can be targeted at specific scenarios or areas of emphasis. Enforce rule sets with the code analysis checkin policy to reduce common coding errors in application or database code before they get into production.

Prototype User Interface Ideas Quickly
By using SketchFlow in Expression Studio you can quickly deliver a functioning prototype that looks and feels like handwritten mockups.

Build Collaboration Solutions on Microsoft SharePoint
New support for SharePoint development, including tooling for Web Parts, Lists, Workflows, and Events and more, so you can bring great new customized collaboration tools to your company.

Automate User Interface Testing
Use Coded User Interface Tests to automate the testing of UI elements in your applications. Visual Studio 2010 automatically generates test code that can be executed manually or incorporated as part of your build process to automate UI regression testing.

Create, Manage and Execute Tests
Microsoft Test Manager 2010 lets you easily define your testing effort for a specific iteration in your project, run manual tests and measure your progress. In addition to creating and managing test assets like plans, suites and test cases you can also create and manage virtual lab configurations for your test environments.

MSDN Subscription Included
MSDN Subscriptions are a convenient way to cost-effectively develop applications on the Microsoft platform with a simple licensing model and broad high quality information resources.
