There is this similar question but I think it was answered when Flash Builder was still Flex Builder.

I need to buy Flash Builder and really the Adobe site is not clear about the different versions. I need to know what is the difference between the standard and the premium editions. Is there a lack of components in the standard? Is there anything that I won´t be able to compile in standard or the differences are just in terms of the IDE functionality?

Thank you

    The main differences between Standard and Premium versions are:

    • Premium version has possibility to create and run unit tests within IDE.
    • Premium version has profiler.
    • Premium version has Network Monitor (to see requests and responses).
    • Premium version has advanced Data wizards (to generate code by WSDL or to generate server side BlazeDS/LCDS code by DB).
    • Premium version has possibility to operate with automation libraries.

    All the other standard libraries, including data visualization (charts and ADG), are free and open-sourced and available in SDK since (if I not mistaken) 3.2 SDK version.

    So if you need:

    • Code editing.
    • Debugger.
    • Design view.
    • Refactoring.
    • Compiling (including AIR).
    • SDK features and libraries.
    • Multi SDK features.

    In this case Standard version is enough.

    You can see link to the compare matrix which hasn’t all the features listed in @ http://www.Flextras.com comment 🙂
