This is a very useful tool. We use it to provide reporting and analytics for our entire operation. It's SSIS features and reporting tools allow us to present data in different formats and real time so issues can be resolved and we can look high level or as detailed as needed at our organaization.
Pros
I like how the Microsoft product continues to evolve. In 2017 we make SSIS on its own server. It speeds up Queries and has always on availability groups. Moving it to the cloud has also helped make it more available. It now has a more robust reporting tool to provide analytics on use and ways to improve run times and queries
Cons
It is a lot different then previous versions. All of the code required major changes to run. There was several issues with connecting to Access databases and Microsoft products that are "known bugs" or being worked on. I cant understand why a product gets out that doesn't integrate with other microsoft products flawlessly.

I've been using VS for more than 20 years now, starting with C++ and moving all the way to C# and Blazor, it's always been a rock solid experience.Sure, some changes were a bit hard to come by from times to times, but this is still a very solid environment.
Pros
It has lots of language support, either managed or unmanaged and allows seamless integration between them all
Cons
It can feel a bit bloated at first, and it can be tough to find the right options
Reasons for Switching to Microsoft Visual Studio
