Resharper is too unreliable to be productive from experience. We bought a crap load of licenses but after about a month, devs were uninstalling it.

It's ok for tiny projects, but not medium to large sized ones.

I have been using ReSharper for years in enterprise level projects. Even if all you use it for is code browsing I think it is still worth it. What did you find wrong with it in large projects?

Slow, crashy, buggy.

Odd, I have used it in solutions with dozens of project, hundreds of code files and ten's of thousands of lines of code and never experienced an issue. I will admit when you first open it in large solutions it takes a little bit for it to cache what it needs. Of course I have had problems with other products that everyone else claimed was fine so to each their own I suppose. Do you have a tool you use in place of ReSharper to solve it's niche?

I watched it live and it was very beginner oriented. If you know vim and are decently familiar with ReSharper then this isn't for you.
