[dba-Tech] Visual Studio Professional 2013 with MSDN

[Gustav Brock]

Hi Shamil

What about this page that I binged:

https://www.visualstudio.com/products/msdn-subscriptions-vs

and this:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/subscriptions/cc150618.aspx

MSDN is personal.

 Hi Gustav --

Than you for your comment.

I'd guess VS 2013 Professional with MSDN should cover MAPS licensing features as it's more pricey? 

Does anybody here know for sure or has any links to approve/disapprove my wild guessing?

Thank you.

That provides 10 Windows desktop licenses, 2012 R2 server licenses, SQL Server 2014, current VS pro and - not to forget - five Office 365 E3 accounts and a limited monthly usage of Azure services enough for testing and development. You also get some hours for qualified support, but we've never used it so I can't tell how much that really is worth.
