An amazing tool!

ReSharper brings Visual Studio up to IntelliJ productivity levels. Navigation is huge. Supercharged intellisense is also huge. ReSharper allows code to flow from the brain to the screen. Programming in Visual Studio with R# installed feels like coding in notepad.

I've been using this product for several years, and I consider Visual Studio essentially crippled without it. Microsoft copies features from this and DevEx Code Rush (another excellent product), but there always a generation or two behind. This product gives you extensive code analysis, and offers to fix a lot of the more common problems in real time. It also has all of the re-factoring tools that you could hope for, and in general they were smoother and better than the built-in Visual Studio re-factoring tools. All in all, an excellent product that I highly recommend. It will let you make better code with less effort, which is what it's all about.

Honestly one the best and must have tools for any serious .net developer. I've seen my productivity go up from day one and I still am amazed at how fast I can get my code up with the help of Resharper.

Resharper helps me get closer to coding at the speed of thought. There have been times when I've been sure JetBrains have managed to implement software telepathy - Resharper is so uncannily good at guessing names for variables and methods. They've even managed to work their magic for XAML editing: find usages of Resource, rename elements and resources, etc. all work wonderfully. In short, don't code without it.

It would be worth every penny at three times its price. I can navigate through our codebase as fast as I can think, thanks to ReSharper.

By far the most productive add-in I've ever used.

Makes coding way more fun! Has on the fly code inspection which helps to eliminate dead-code, prevent error etc. Also include Test-Support for NUnit.

Good idea, poorly executed. Slows down VS too much to be useful, crashes, and hangs frequently. Fix though problems and you have an excellent product.

Great tool overall - maybe not 'meta' enough for me, but that's what extensibility is for. Well done!

Working on a system that doesn't have ReSharper installed is PAINFUL

An essential plugin for Visual Studio

makes VS hangs from time to time...

The best Visual Studio add-in ever!

The Best Refactoring/codifying/reformating addin.

ok

Worth every penny

It's become one of those tools like Reflector that I just can't imagine developing without.

Simply the best addition of features and functionality with style for Visual Studio IDE.

Best plugin I have ever used. Resharper changed the way I write code. Makes refactoring, testing and modern design methods so much easier. Cannot usevs without it.

Looks very slick and useful, but it slowed down my visual studio to the point where the lag offset any productivity gains Resharper provides. And this is on a quad-core 2Ghz Xeon workstation.

Excellent refactoring tool!

Resharper is used and loved by all of our team. It is the best productivity tool I am aware of for Visual Studio - I would not want to have to use Visual Studio without it. I would seriously recommend the tool to everyone.

If you have ReSharper installed for a while you will find that an IDE without it seems like car without wheels.

Simply put, this is the only essential plugin for Visual Studio. By taking the time to learn the many available commands and to understand the feedback the tool provides, you will discover the ability to transform your code almost as fast as you can think. Everything is laid out in an intelligent fashion.

Gets better all the time.

Amazing tool!

The only tool I ever NEEDED to buy after the trial was over. I even bought a personal copy because I didn't want to live without it at home. Resharper may not have all the features of other addins, but I have found that I used the features of Resharper almost without knowing it. What amazed me was how many features I use without going up a long learning curve. That is a true test of a must-have addin.

I couldn't dream of using visual studio without this.

Simply indispensable!

Productivity has never been this good. Big time savers for Moving of code, spotting redundant code, improving readability and maintainability.

Resharper makes Visual studio IDE, human usable. Ever since I started using it from 1.5 version, I am in love with it. In my consulting job, who ever want to hire me, they better have R# or I will be 5 time less productive.

Can't live without it.

I won't code in c# without it.

This is the best productivity enhancement tool I've ever seen.

This is an exceptional product that fixes productivity issues in Visual Studio that you didn't even know were problems. The productivity enhancements are excellent, with a list of well documented keyboard shortcut, code analysis (look for the light bulb -- hit Alt-Enter to fix the problem). Also, the built in configuration of the product is amazing. If you don't like/agree with something, you can turn it off with a couple of clicks. It is well worth the investment, you'll make it up in no time.

A MUST!

I am a long time user of Code Rush and I love ReSharper.
The solution wide analysis is amazing. It found 5 errors in my web.config files related to assembly references that Code Rush and Visual Studio were clueless about.
The test runner is very polished and easy to use no matter what Unit Test framework you like to use.
I have a nasty solution with 17 projects full of the worst spaghetti code you can imagine. Code Rush chokes on it. ReSharper has never once crashed in me with this solution.
Worth the $200 US any day.

Must have. Helps to keep up code quality. There is just one performance issue on very large classes/files with lines > 500. The VS will be very slowly because of the codeanalysis feature.

Do I need to even say anything? If your not obsessive in your love and devotion to ReSharper 4.0 then one must assume you don't know of it as the alternative is far nastier.

If you CHOOSE to not use it you must fundamentally not understand the need it serves.

As necessity would create an understanding for the need... Get where I am going?

The must have plugin for every .NET developer!

Superb product, dread the possibility of not being able to use it. Full support of C Sharp 3.0.

Cons - F12 no longer shows source from meta. Apparently MS is not exposing that functionality through the API, hence the problems.

Resharper taught me better C# and continually makes my life easier. I feel naked without Resharper... That's a bad thing in this case.

ReSharper is an excellent tool for .NET developers cause it boosts productivity tenfold in just a week of use.
