Microsoft is, indeed, helping new companies. I have my bizspark account, and couldn't be happier with it, and I recommend to anyone who wants free perks.

Some screenshots of it:

(One click key generation.)

I'd recommend it to any startups that want to have a good setup without paying!

I can vouch for the student account (Dreamspark), it most likely won't be the same as these one's as it goes by college here, however theres a bunch of programs that you can download there for free, talking about VS Ultimate or Visio, Windows server.. and ofc the newest OS versions for desktops.

Definatly worth the shot trying to get in as it saves you alot of money.

I recently started my studies at a University of Applied Sciences and the dreamspark certainly is a really nice thing. Around 160 different products free to use. Downloaded the full Office 2013 package and Visual Studio 2015 from it so far and planning on downloading the Windows Server 2012 R2 at some point too.

It even has MS-DOS 6, if you would want it for some reason.

I have access to DreamSpark too, but there is no Office. There is almost everything from Microsoft except MS Office.

And about BizSpark, it is only for companies or also for freelancers. Because I would like to join their program for developing my new web app, but I don't have my own company.

BizSpark are indeed for start ups, but they are great for them and include the advantage of multiple users... I consider apples and oranges between DreamSpark and BizSpark, hence they are for different public... DreamSpark greatest perk is GitHub Student Pack.

I, Myself use DreamSpark. It is truly a wonderful service MS has put out for students who want to do coding and such. I know mine has Visual Studio, SQL server and Windows server's on it. Which is fantastic for what I do. I'm pretty sure the software selection is based on what your studies are.

Luckily I'm also able to use DreamSpark via my school. BitSpark looks not much different to me and should be awesome for any kind of development beginners.

Systems like Visual Studio or MSSQL are found in every second business application development company I feel. Microsoft has put a big step into the future of application development and I like the way they go more and more open ... with their products. Making them available to a bigger community that doesn't necessarily have a ton of money to spend! :thumbup1:

Also a big vouch for Bit / Dreamspark from me

Dreamspark is limited with their licences, you can only use them for learning purposes because they'll expire. I really love the fact that you can get everything in one place if you're looking for something!
