    ReSharper tries my patience often with its instability, but overall I can't live without it.

    When you tried Resharper, there is NO WAY BACK. Can't use VS without it. can you make poll to accept more than 1 answers? ) I've been using along side with Resharper: Productivity Power Tools PowerCommands for VS2010 Subversion

    I wouldn't see subversion as a visual studio Add in to be honest, unless there is an Add in to VS that only does Svn There are many tools that work well together, I would allow multiple selection , maybe thats just me

    The result (as stands) is, at the same time, both astonishing and not unsurprising. @Andrea VisualSVN is a Visual Studio plugin for Subversion integration.

    Can hardly call "Subversion" a VS addin. Should be VisualSVN and/or AnkhSVN (are there others?)

    BTW, I don't see JustCode and Visual Assist.

    Definitely Coderush. It's really an excellent product and I can't imagine myself coding without it. Used to be a bit slow but that's ancient history.

    I primarily use Visual Assist.  I have had a subscription since Visual Studio 5 for it.  It and the Productivity Tools meet all my needs.

    This voting system is cookie based. Clearing cookie lets you vote again. One item just voted up ~+200 in 15 minutes. I think results cannot be trusted any more.

    I use CodeRush a lot in my daily coding. Very powerful addin for Visual Studio. I love templates, and new Unit Test Runner it makes me more productive every day.

    Ilya, I assume that could be due to the broadcast message sent via Twitter or something from the developing company of an add-in. And, of course, those customers, are real fans of the product trust and love that add-in. Probably, that's why it got so much votes.

    @Skorkin, when customers form a wave in voting, it doesn't happen like this, 1 vote every 1-2 seconds. Also, there were no visible message on twitter, blog or otherwise. And it doesn't stop at 217 like it did instantly. With no more votes in next 30 minutes.

    @Skorkin, In 15 mins that doesn't happen. Plus I've already contacted the Poll providers and we've verified personally that cleaning cookies will allow you to vote many times.

    Visual Assist X is essential for making VS 2010 useable for us (remaining 3) C++/CLI developers until they put intellisense back. Its refactoring tools are quite good too.

    ReSharper and GhostDoc [1] are the only two I couldn't stand to lose. [1] submain.com/.../ghostdoc.aspx

    Another vote for ViEmu. It's installed before any other addins.

    I've successfully been using IDE Tools (CodeRush & Refactor!) from DevExpress for more than 3 years. In my opinion, this is a must-have set for any developer using Visual Studio. The features they provide as well as a very good performance (even with large solutions) will unlikely force me even to look at something else. I like to say that their support (support center, forums, docs, videos, blogs, etc.) and a large number of free DXCore plugins is also a good addition, which proves that I made the right choice. BTW, I also use TestDriven.net (I call it simply the "rocket"), but I am now more and more testing Unit Test runner, which is a part of IDE Tools. I think that in the future I will be using it instead of the rocket, because IDE Tools provide all the functionality I ever need ("all-in-one").
