A while ago, a white paper entitled Key Benefits of Microsoft Visual Studio Team System was released. This document provided a great overview of many of the key benefits of Microsoft Visual Studio Team System, as the name implies. There are now a full set of new white papers available that expand on the key benefits raised in this original document and go into greater depth.

The new white papers are as follows;

NOTE: The whitepapers are available as docx, xps and pfd from here. The following links are all to the PDF versions

• Drive Predictability
• Ensure Quality Early and Often
• Integrate Work Frequently
• Making Real-Time Decisions
• Managing Team Workflow
• Using Familiar Tools
