Visual studio Express Edition vs Community

Community edition is the full fledged software, but you can’t use it on enterprise (>5 users)

On the other hand, Express editions can be used in enterprise environments, but does not let you use plugins.

So in the end, as far as I can tell the choice is between plugins and enterprise. If it’s just a product you are developing yourself, or an open source software, Community edition would be your best bet. On the other hand, if you want to try out the latest version at your work for free, then Express edition is for you.
