    <p>Well, the new VS2010 included some ideas that those tools introduced years ago. By the way, I used ReSharper and I assure that it has much more that VS can offer.<br /> Amongst the most important features it allows to enforce the same style along all the code, including naming convention and indentation (just to mention a couple). This allows groups of coders to work on code that looks always "familiar".<br /> The production is drastically improved with those tools because they can suggest and write for you a lot of code with a simple key combination. Ok, VS includes some of this code generation but it doesn't cover the same amount of places where this can be done. It is too extensive to write here all the features and you can check them in detail on the official websites.<br /> They (at least ReSharper that I used a lot) also improves the solution navigation, finding files, classes, methods with an easy to access and clean interface.<br /> The only thing I can say is that once you try it, it is difficult to go back.<br /> The best thing you can do is download the trial and try it yourself. I am sure that you will see why they are so beneficial.</p> <p><em>Edited, added from the comments</em>:<br /></p> <ul> <li>Jump to file in solution explorer.</li> <li>Enforces naming convention such as 'm_variableName' or 'MethodName', or 'privateVariableName'.</li> <li>Automatic naming creation... if you have a class named 'CoolFileReader' it automatically suggests (based on the convention) 'm_coolFileReader'.</li> <li>Highlights in gray the unused variables and using directives.</li> <li>Suggests to add references to other projects in the same solutions. ... more...</li> </ul>
