controls in Interdev vs ASP.NET

[smsinger3]

Hello all. I am new to ASP.NET and getting ready to write a new intranet website for my company. I've used Interdev many times before, but never really took advantage of writing any controls or using any controls like the data repeater, etc... I've been told that in Interdev it's not always that reliable. (I have no idea if this is really true, but that's what I've been told). What are your thoughts about ASP.NET and the advanced user controls? I would love to take advantage of these controls and would especially love writing less code, consequently speedier development time!

What do you think?

The InterDev IDE wrote asp pages whereas you need a new IDE for asp.net pages. Visual Studio is very good, though not cheap. WebMatrix loses alot of .NET functionality as it doesn't support code-behind(code for page is in a different file than the HTML)
