FAQ
* Pre-Sales and Purchase
* Benefits and licensing
* Billing and renewals
* Pre-sales and Purchase
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VISUAL STUDIO AND VISUAL STUDIO CODE?
Visual Studio is a fully-featured IDE whereas Visual Studio Code is a code
editor. Visual Studio Code is free and based on open source, and runs on
Windows, macOS, and Linux. Check out this doc for a more detailed understanding
of the differences.
HOW DO I PURCHASE VISUAL STUDIO SUBSCRIPTIONS FOR A BUSINESS?
Depending on the size of your business, there are different agreements and
licensing types that are available. You can purchase directly from the Visual
Studio Marketplace. You can also purchase through Microsoft Volume Licensing for
commercial licensing agreements or a Solution Partner.
HOW DO I PURCHASE A VISUAL STUDIO SUBSCRIPTION FOR MYSELF?
As an individual, you have a few options depending on your needs. You can
purchase a monthly subscription from the Visual Studio Marketplace if you just
need access to the IDE and want the flexibility of a monthly subscription. You
can also purchase the subscription which includes the IDE as well as many other
benefits such as Azure dev/test individual credits, Azure DevOps, training,
services, support and more, from the Microsoft Store.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTIONS AND STANDARD SUBSCRIPTIONS?
Monthly subscriptions are billed each month and provide billing flexibility.
This is a great option for those that just need to use the IDE for a short time,
and don’t need the other benefits. The standard subscription includes access to
more benefits such as the Azure dev/test individual credits, software and
download access, services, training, and support. The standard subscription is a
perpetual license meaning you’ve purchased Visual Studio and can continue to use
the product after the subscription expires.
DO YOU OFFER DISCOUNTS FOR START-UPS?
There aren’t any discounts available to start-ups, however an unlimited number
of users within an organization can use Visual Studio Community for the
following scenarios: in a classroom learning environment, for academic research,
or for contributing to open source projects. For more information about Visual
Studio Community, please see the licensing terms. For more information about
options for start-ups visit https://startups.microsoft.com.
For all other usage scenarios:
In non-enterprise organizations, up to five users can use Visual Studio
Community. In enterprise organizations (meaning those with >250 PCs or >$1
Million US Dollars in annual revenue), no use is permitted beyond the open
source, academic research, and classroom learning environment scenarios
described above.
I AM LOOKING FOR MSDN PLATFORMS
Check out the pricing details page for information on standard subscriptions for
MSDN Platforms.
I AM LOOKING FOR TEST PROFESSIONAL
Check out the pricing details page for information on standard subscriptions for
Visual Studio Test Professional.
I AM LOOKING FOR VISUAL STUDIO STANDALONE
Check out the pricing details page for information on Visual Studio Professional
standalone license.
THERE ARE A LOT OF SUBSCRIPTION OPTIONS WITH DIFFERENT FEATURES, BENEFITS AND
INCLUDED DOWNLOADS. WHICH ONE IS THE RIGHT FOR ME?
Take a look at the comparison charts to see the options available with each
subscription level to determine which subscription meets your needs. If you
aren’t sure which benefits you need, you can take a look at our Visual Studio
subscriptions benefits page which provides more details about each of the
benefits that are included with each subscription level.
CAN I STILL USE EXPRESS?
Yes, but we recommend using our latest Visual Studio instead. Have you tried the
free Visual Studio Community?

WHERE CAN I FIND MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHICH BENEFITS ARE INCLUDED WITH VISUAL
STUDIO SUBSCRIPTIONS?

which benefits are included for each subscription level, please visit the
benefits webpage. You can select the subscription you’re interested in, and then
see which benefits are available in the various levels.
WHAT SOFTWARE DOWNLOADS ARE AVAILABLE IN VISUAL STUDIO SUBSCRIPTIONS?

For a complete document containing the licensing terms for Visual Studio
subscriptions, download the white paper.

If you purchase a Visual Studio subscription, both current and old versions of
Visual Studio are available. To see the exact versions available for various
subscription levels, download the complete list of software. For access to
previous versions of Visual Studio Community you can go here.
ARE NEW VS VERSIONS INCLUDED IN A SUBSCRIPTION?
Yes, the newest version of Visual Studio will be available as long as your
subscription is active.
CAN I USE VS COMMUNITY?
Any individual can sign up for Visual Studio Community to create their own free
or paid apps. There are restrictions for organizations that wish to use Visual
Studio Community. For more information, visit the Visual Studio Community page.
WHICH SUBSCRIPTION GRANTS ME ACCESS TO AZURE DEVOPS?
Azure DevOps Server is included in all paid subscription levels. Azure DevOps
Basic Plan is included in all paid subscription levels. Visual Studio Enterprise
standard and monthly, Visual Studio Test Professional and MSDN Platforms include
Test Plans as well.
CAN I USE VISUAL STUDIO PRIVATELY AS WELL?
Yes. Visual Studio subscriptions are licensed per user, not per machine. So if
you have an active subscription, you are allowed to use the software anywhere.
For more information about usage rights, download the Visual Studio Licensing
whitepaper.

* Billing and renewals
HOW DO I RENEW MY VISUAL STUDIO STANDARD SUBSCRIPTION PURCHASED FROM MICROSOFT
STORE?

purchase a renewal directly from them, or you can simply renew in the
subscription portal.

link.
Visit the Microsoft Store and search for “Visual Studio subscription” to see the
available renewal opportunities. Here are some quick links:
Visual Studio Enterprise
Visual Studio Professional
Visual Studio Test Professional
Note: You must renew your subscription within 30 days of the expiration date to
qualify for renewal pricing.
HOW DO I RENEW MY VISUAL STUDIO STANDARD SUBSCRIPTION PURCHASED THROUGH VOLUME
LICENSING?
If your organization purchased your subscription through your organization’s
Microsoft Volume Licensing agreement, your organization will need to process a
renewal with your reseller.
HOW DO I RENEW MY VISUAL STUDIO CLOUD SUBSCRIPTION?
Both monthly and annual cloud subscriptions renew automatically until you cancel
them, so there’s no need to take any action to renew them.
CAN I UPGRADE/DOWNGRADE MY SUBSCRIPTION LEVEL IN THE FUTURE?
In some cases, upgrading is available. Downgrading is also available. For
detailed information about your options, download the Visual Studio
subscriptions white paper.
