Business Case for Resharper
I’ve just recently graduated and I’m working for my first company. During college, one of my professors had every computer loaded with Resharper and I loved it! I bought myself a personal license for it and have been using it ever since.
But at my new job, only a select few (senior developers mostly) are using Resharper. When I asked my supervisor to buy a license for myself, I was shot down because "it won’t improve the productivity of level 1 programmers".
I’ve tried showing them that Resharper is only a fraction of a programmer’s salary and it’ll make my life as a programmer easier. But unfortunately, my words fell on deaf ears. Is there any case or argument that I can bring to my supervisor to show them that it will increase my productivity?
If you already have a personal license, I don’t think anything prevents you from using it also at work, provided that your company allows you installing it… http://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/buy/license-matrix.jsp
