## ReSharper Reviews
  ### 1. Great Productivity tool for Programming

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dilan P. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 24, 2024

**What do you like best about ReSharper?**

I really like it's code completion especially when you're writing quite obvious code, it's able to detect what the next line should be. It's also great at detecting code smells and a simple "Ctrl + ." Usually provides an accurate solution to fix it

**What do you dislike about ReSharper?**

It is quite expensive to use but definitely worth getting if you're programming day to day or work in the software development industry

**What problems is ReSharper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I do forget some minor details when programming. E.g. making something static or read-only or even removing commented out code

  ### 2. Extends your capabilities. Must have tool!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rajat A. | Software Developer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 18, 2024

**What do you like best about ReSharper?**

That it also detects N+1 issues when writing EF queries. Easy to use and work with. Suggests in a non-intrusive manner.

**What do you dislike about ReSharper?**

It makes Visual Studio work a bit slower.

**What problems is ReSharper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's solving the problem of extending the capability of Visual Studio to help catch issues and improve code early on.

  ### 3. Make  Your Coding Life Easier

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Glenn E. | It Consultant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 16, 2021

**What do you like best about ReSharper?**

Resharper provides an enormous functional extension to MS Visual Studio.  Highlights in my use are   Code completion,  Unit testing, refactoring, formating , extending existing IntelliSense  and templates.  All this allows you to code at a faster pace with more feedback.

**What do you dislike about ReSharper?**

It can be very confusing to configure since there are so many options available.  The biggest i would say  though is performance impact with visual studio since it indexes a whole project.

**Recommendations to others considering ReSharper:**

It takes a lot of time to learn how leverage all the features of resharper and which one work best for your projects.  Microsoft has added a lot of the feature that ReSharper has but Resharpers version is more robust. There really isnt any alternative to ReSharper to the best of my knowledge.

**What problems is ReSharper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ReSharper rounds out Visual Studio with functionality and features.  I wouldn't say it solves problems but rather it makes writing code smoother and more productive. I dont remember which  ReSharper version I started with but it has gotten better and better.

  ### 4. A great productivity tool but may add some lag

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yawar A. | Software Developer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2021

**What do you like best about ReSharper?**

The productivity shortcuts are great. You can refactor code with available shortcuts. There're other features as well like you can check the code coverage of the unit test. Also, the build performed by ReSharper is quick as it only builds projects that've been modified since last build.

**What do you dislike about ReSharper?**

My machine isn't that powerful. But, it's still an average machine with i5 processor and fast SSD along with quite a good amount of RAM. But, enabling the ReSharper makes my Visual Studio respond slow and I notice some lag at times.

**Recommendations to others considering ReSharper:**

ReSharper is a great tool to boost up your productivity. But, before you decide to buy the license, check out VS 2022 first. A lot of the features have been provided natively in VS 2022.

**What problems is ReSharper solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is boosting our development workflow speed.

   fine.
2. Also the quality of support from JetBrains can be improved.

**Recommendations to others considering ReSharper:**

Please use this in your VS extension and it will make your life easy.

Auto suggest functions which guide to improve your code. Also it's very much configurable on code validation and suggestions features.  I have used few more tools for code optimization and found ReSharper most light weight out of all.

I think pricing for individuals or personal level was high so I couldn't continue after trial period expired. So if pricing could be revised for personal use then it will reach to more people.

Creation application architecture, code optimization,code validation, coding standards.
