Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 is the latest edition of Visual Studio, a SKU designed to streamline the development of business applications by promising to help customers build apps requiring no coding.

Launched recently, Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 is now available for purchase from a variety of online shops, but those that purchase it from the Microsoft Store get a great deal.

Via its own online outlet, Microsoft is offering Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 at a considerable discount, selling the new product for only $199 instead of $299. Customers that buy it through the Microsoft Store and opt to only download the new VS SKU can save no less than $100.

“Microsoft Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 is a flexible development tool that enables developers of all skill levels to quickly create and deploy great-looking business applications for the desktop and the cloud,” reads an excerpt from the official description of Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011.

The $199 Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 deal is nothing more than the introductory offer from Microsoft to make the product as attractive to customers as possible.

The Redmond company generosity doesn’t stop here. When it announced the RTM of Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011, the software giant also release a free trial download, providing customers with the possibility to test drive the new VS release ahead of actually buying it.

My advice is for users to take advantage of the free Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 trial downloads. They can grab the product and test it for as much as 90 days, and then purchase it.

According to Microsoft, the introductory offer for Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 will last until January 31, 2012, so there’s no real need to hurry.

“With timesaving tools and templates, and an intuitive development environment, Visual Studio LightSwitch helps speed the development and reduces the complexity of everything from UI design to Windows Azure Cloud Deployment,” the company said.

“With Visual Studio LightSwitch it is finally practical to create affordable, scalable custom software solutions that bridge the gaps between existing systems and data and help provide comprehensive, user-friendly views of your business data.”
