How ReSharper helps Visual Studio users
Analyze code quality
On-the-fly code quality analysis is available in C#, VB.NET, XAML, ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, HTML, and XML. You'll know right away if your code needs to be improved.
Eliminate errors and code smells
Not only does ReSharper warn you when there's a problem in your code but it provides hundreds of quick-fixes to solve problems automatically. In most cases, you can select the best quick-fix from a variety of options.
Safely change the code base
Automated solution-wide code refactorings help safely change your code base. Whether you need to revitalize legacy code or put your project structure in order, you can lean on ReSharper.
Instantly traverse the entire solution
You can instantly navigate and search in the whole solution. Jump to any file, type, or type member, or navigate from a specific symbol to its usages, base and derived symbols, or implementations.
Enjoy code editing helpers
Multiple code editing helpers include extended IntelliSense, hundreds of instant code transformations, auto-importing namespaces, rearranging code and displaying documentation.

formatting functionality with fine-grained, language-specific settings will help you get

ReSharper makes Visual Studio a much better IDE
Code analysis
ReSharper extends Visual Studio with over 2300 on-the-fly code inspections for C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, JavaScript, TypeScript and other technologies. For most inspections, ReSharper provides quick-fixes (light bulbs) to improve code in one way or another.
Find and get rid of unused code? Migrate your code to C# 7? Convert loops to LINQ at will? Find and prevent possible exceptions? Use a common naming standard? All that and a lot more code improvements is made possible with ReSharper's code analysis.
Refactorings
50+ refactorings and 420+ context actions help safely organize code and move it around the solution, distribute responsibility, decouple, decrease complexity, or simply use alternative language syntax.
Navigation and Search
ReSharper helps instantly land at any code in a solution, no matter how large it is. It can also navigate you from any symbol to related code such as implementations of a given interface, extension methods of a class, or usages of a field.
Code formatting and cleanup
Configure and apply code style based on your personal preferences or your team standard. Code style and formatting settings for C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, JavaScript, TypeScript and other languages can be applied in any scope, from a selection to a solution.
Code generation
ReSharper can create a lot of code for you: from new files and classes to conditional blocks and GUIDs; from methods and properties required by an interface being implemented to equality checks and formatting members.
ReSharper Ultimate:
a set of .NET tools and ReSharper C++ in one license
ReSharper Ultimate is a license that combines individual JetBrains .NET tools, as well as ReSharper C++.
Each ReSharper Ultimate license allows a single developer to use ReSharper, ReSharper C++, dotCover, dotTrace and dotMemory.
Why Upgrade to ReSharper 2017.2
.NET Core 2.0
With ReSharper 2017.2, you can safely use your favorite code inspections, navigation actions and refactorings with .NET Core 2.0 projects. If you're a web developer, expect ReSharper to work in ASP.NET Core Razor Pages projects as well as in MVC-based web applications.
If you've had issues unit testing your .NET Core applications with prior ReSharper releases, note that the unit test runner now supports NUnit in .NET Core projects (both 1.1 and 2.0), and ensures that you can run both MSTest and xUnit.net in .NET Core 2.0 projects.
Improved C# 7.0 support
ReSharper's support for C# 7.0 gets better with every release. In this release cycle, we have polished the way ReSharper handles pattern matching.
For example, a new context action, Generate type patterns, helps easily generate
switch cases for selected types. The Convert to switch quick-fix has been
completely reworked to transform multiple
if statements into a single switch statement with patterns.
Navigation and search improvements
Go to Everything and other navigation actions are now able to match elements
containing words in the target query in any order: for example, a search for
"exact matching" will match isMatchingExactly.
On the other hand, there's now exact search that works how you would expect from
a search engine: looking up "Collection" will return Collection but will
not return FilteredCollection, IterateCollection()
etc. However, while using exact search to filter out compound names, you can still use
wildcard symbols * and ? to allow exactly as much variation
as you need.

I love ReSharper! Its code suggestions routinely help me write better C#/VB.NET code.
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!
ReSharper is an awesome tool. If you're using it you probably agree and if you aren't you should be. The productivity gains are incredible.
The ultimate Agile tool is ReSharper. Refactoring is just so darn easy that change isn't scary.
