    5.0 out of 5 stars A not so comprehensive development environment for individual amateur developers., 27 Dec 2007
    By John Nunn (Coventry, U.K.) - See all my reviews
    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
    This is the most basic of the commercial versions of visual studio available and should only be considered by somebody who wants a more integrated development enviorment than that provided by the express editions.
    This version does not support remote debugging, provide server explorer or integrate with SQL server; nor does it support office development. For those of you who want a truely professional environment look at the Professional Edition
    Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition is a comprehensive, high productivity professional development environment (for devs working alone) for building high performance, multi-tier applications for Windows, Web, and common consumer mobile devices.
    * The ideal tool for the part-time or occasional developer.
    * Support for Visual Basic, C#, C++, and J# languages.
    * Develop and deploy client-server based Windows, Web, SmartPhone, and Pocket PC applications.
    * "Drag and drop" user interface designers for virtually every type of application
    * Includes a built-in Web server for testing Web applications, IIS is not needed

    Buy now and because of the MSDN subscription get VS 2008 straight away!

    The first edition of Visual studio 2005 to provide what I would call professional features such as remote debugging, integration with SQL server 2005 and a truly integrated environment. Still if you are looking for the edge then you should consider the team system or one of the specialised team editions which can provide a greater degree of professionalism to your development effort.
    Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition is a comprehensive, high productivity professional development environment (for devs working alone or in small teams) for building high performance, multi-tier applications for Windows, the Web, and mobile devices.
    With Visual Studio 2005, professional developers can:
    * Create multi-tier Windows, Web, SmartPhone, and Pocket PC based applications
    * Integrated Visual Database Tools for designing databases, tables, stored procedures, and more
    * Integrated database report designer and viewer
    * Design, debug, and deploy multi-tier applications
    * Integrated XSLT debugging
