I am a one-man business and good candidate, but some things are unclear from my reading so far. How do you actually get this "product"? I can't see any kind of registration or whatever. Do I still have an MSDN live signin like I do now with pages for downloads and licence key generation? It's great

Can I ask why would you upgrade from Community to Premium and why would I buy the MSDN pack? I find the Community + Resharper has everything I ever wanted. On Tue, Apr 21, 2015 at 11:09 AM, Greg Keogh wrote: > Ah thanks Steve, that's a good chart. Now I can see after they've shuffled > the subsc

Ah thanks Steve, that's a good chart. Now I can see after they've shuffled the subscriptions that the Pro level has everything I would normally need (thank heavens!). Things like Office, SharePoint, and some more obscure cloud and testing features I can live without. I'll drop back to Pro next mont

The only thing I missed in Professional when moving from Ultimate is CodeLens, but that is now moving to Professional as well. Craig On Tue, Apr 21, 2015 at 10:28 AM, Stephen Price wrote: > Judging by those links and what I've read previously looks like the worst > place to be is Premium curren

Perhaps the price rise is due to upcoming changes to the VS 2015 editions? Just a guess. See: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2015/03/31/announcing-the-visual-studio-2015-product-line.aspx On 21 April 2015 at 09:37, Greg Keogh wrote: > Hi Folks, I have a few post today, so beware!

Hi Folks, I have a few post today, so beware! Anyway ... the time of the dreaded biannual event will arrive next month when my 2-year MSDN subscription will expire. In May 2013 I purchased the Premium level via Harris Technology for about $3600. A quote yesterday says it's now AU$4118 for the Premi
