TeamCity ROCKS because its not tied to a specific VCS, and there are plugins for just about any VCS.

TeamCity also ROCKS because it is helping expose flaws in the structure of our projects that is making things more difficult than it needs to be.

Will Green, Software Developer

Ich finde dieses Tool einfach nur genial — vor allem wenn man sich über die Konfiguration von CruiseControl.Net geärgert hat.

Daniel Siegl, Head of Development at LieberLieber

TeamCity is different. And different is better. Build failure spam? No more. Waiting for a success message before going home? Nope. Lengthy clean and full rebuilds before checking in? Thing of the past. Can't compile because you synced just after someone else checked in garbage? Never again...
What do you do when you check in? Sync, clean, build, test, and then submit, right? How long does that take? 15 minutes, 30 minutes? Why don't we just let the CI server do that for us. ...
TeamCity is simply doing CI the way it should have been done in the first place.

Hamlet D'Arcy, Engineering Lead, Pearson

TeamCity is just packed full of nerdgasm features that just work out of the box. No need to scour the web for plugins, deal with XML, or anything like that. Things just work. For example, you get full status of the build while it is happening--you can see what MSBuild step the build is on, you can see the important messages in the Build Log (it filters them quite intelligently), you can even see what threads/processes are running. If you use their NUnit runner you can even see how many tests have passed/failed/been ignored. All in all, we're very happy with TeamCity. It's just as free as CC.NET for a team of our size, it's much much easier to set up, and it has way more features... JetBrains has a winner here.

Rubymine 3.0 is the snappiest-feeling and most reliable Rails IDE I've used (and I've used RadRails, Aptana, and Netbeans pretty extensively), the best Ruby text editor (better than Textmate or Coda), and the sanest, clearest organization and selection of helpful IDE features. The keyboard friendliness is a particular win.

Dan Michaelson, linkedbyair.net

Rubymine is the absolute best IDE I have had the pleasure of working with on our Ruby and Rails projects! And it's not even beta yet!!

I used IDEA years ago when we did Java development... I loved it and was sad to leave it behind when our directions changed, first to .NET and for the past two year to Ruby and Rails. It is great to see (yet another) wonderful Jetbrains tool that enables me be more productive and to focus more on the task at hand instead of wrestling with the tools. :-)

I am eagerly looking forward to the 1.0 launch - thanks again for such a great product!

YouTrack has been a fundamental building block in handling the enormous feedback we get as the most popular MS-based CMS (both feature requests and bugs). In addition, the Agile board is phenomenal when it comes to an overview of whether we're on track with a release."

Niels Hartvig, Founder Umbraco — the Friendly CMS

We use both IntelliJ IDEA and YouTrack as our main development productivity tools. Both are exceptional. Recently we started using YouTrack 2.1 and are amazed at the attention to detail and the functionality. The design is excellent - for us it is very feature-complete, yet with a user interface that is clear, easy to understand and use."

Simon Botting, Founder and Senior Programmer at www.enbuenosaires.com

The things that ReSharper showed me and taught me is simply amazing. It's like having your own personal pair programmer sitting right next to you all the time.
It tells you if your code is good, if you actually use the code you create and it even helps you reformat/refactor your code to make it more robust.
An example that blew me out of the field was with an iteration I was working on which went over a List. ReSharper offered a suggestion to use LINQ and went right ahead rewriting the whole iteration into a LINQ statement. This is great for teaching you new stuff!"

Gerard de Brieder, Founder at Govannon

It speeds up coding to such an extent that it feels awkward and slow when it's not available.
Its implementation is subtle, but masterful. Among other things, it improves the auto-complete features, adds real time error spotting and automatically adds the correct references."

Ben Franklin, Senior Developer at Quba

ReSharper: How did I live without it?
ReSharper from JetBrains is the best thing that ever happened to Visual Studio. I've barely tapped into the functionality, and it's already an indispensable tool. I don't know how I ever coded without it. Its productivity enhancements are simply awesome.
I can't wait to learn more features. Totally worth the money!

Tom A. Puleo, Independent Contractor at ESC Development

Can't beat R#, especially in a Team Dev environment, you can enforce code normalization without killing your entire team!

David Ridgway, Software Developer

All I can say is I love it. If you don't use ReSharper, drop what you are doing and go out and buy it!

Peter Kellner, Consultant at 73rd Street Associates

We are getting licenses! Hurray. Looks like my offer to cut five fingers off of my right hand to demonstrate how unproductive I am without resharper was the ticket.

Larry Foulkrod, Lead Software Developer

As far as I'm concerned Visual Studio without ReSharper is like driving a Mustang with a lawn mower engine. You can do it but who would want to.

Ray Megal, Senior Programmer Analyst (M&I Investment Management Corp.), Software consultant and trainer

If you use Rhino.Mocks, then every class that you mock must implement an interface. With the help of ReSharper, interfaces can be created from an existing class and propagated to the rest of your codebase with just a few keystrokes. This alone makes the price of ReSharper worth it if you are going to start using mocking in a Legacy system that was designed without using interfaces.

Russell Ball, StoreFinancial

R# is a tool that I use and absolutely love. I recommend this for anyone who uses Visual Studio and programs in C# or VB.NET. Those that use R#, we see the benefits that it brings and the absolute productivity boost that you get using it.

Rob Reynolds, RealDimensions.net

To me my value to a customer is providing the maximum productivity that I can and to me that productivity comes from using this tool.
...
The way I code works perfectly within the way R# aids me in being productive. It grants me a fluid motion to refactoring and code efficiency and helps me get into a groove when I code. A groove that is both productive and efficient and fun.

Bil Simpser, Independent Solutions Architect Consultant., MVP

I'm such a wannabe ReSharper padawan. My motivation is good though: I want to be more productive. On a recent project, I was writing some code in front of a client employee, a novice developer himself, and he exclaimed "The code is just writing itself.

Christopher Bennage, Software developer and consultant, Blue Spire Consulting, Inc

For the last week (at my new gig) I've been using ReSharper 3.0, and I must say I'm pretty darned impressed. I hadn't looked at ReSharper since the very early versions, and had sort of written it off in favor of CodeRush/Refactor, but ReSharper 3 has some pretty compelling features...

Patrick Caudwell, SoftSource Consulting Soft Source

Without starting a flame war about which language is better, I just want to let all the VB.NET developers out there that read this to understand that this tool is THE bomb.
...
I can't imagine coding C#/TDD without it... If you haven't checked it out, it is worth it. It is the only tool in my arsenal that I was willing to use my own money. It will pay you back 100 fold.

Jason Meridth, Lead Software Developer at Wachovia

This is the tool any serious .NET developer must have. I should perhaps qualify it with saying Visual Studio.NET developer.
It is awesome. The unit test runner is worth the price of the tool alone... The refactoring support is awesome. The editor enhancements are first rate.

Geoff Bennett, Axcess Consulting
