|  Altova has long been a Visual Studio Integration Partner (VSIP), recognizing that many developers using Microsoft's premier multi-purpose software development environment also require specialized UML development functionality. While Visual Studio does include support for some UML technologies, UModel provides Visual Studio users with the all the specialized UML development tools required to model and build today's advanced software applications – directly inside the Visual Studio environment they are already working in. UModel supports seamless integration with Visual Studio to add all the powerful functionality listed below. If you need these features, you need UModel. |

When you install the UModel integration module, all the advanced features listed above work seamlessly within the Visual Studio environment. For example, automatic, real-time synchronization between the UModel project and your source code lets you work in either your UML model or the source code editor, and the changes you make in one window are immediately reflected in the other. For more details, see the UModel Visual Studio integration page.
