There's many ASP.NET developers using Visual Studio who need flexible options and would like a UI to manage deployment tasks. These developers tend to deploy web applications themselves and a few deployment scenarios that exist today where you'll see those developers deploying applications themselves:
- Small to mid-sized companies where the developer sees the application end to end, often a solo developer, however s/he might be on a small team.
- Individual consultants or small consultancies that need to deploy remotely, often using FTP or FTPS (secure FTP).
- Small to mid-sized teams that don't have automated deployment or CI in place and are in charge of their own application deployments.
The central theme is that all three types of teams are all responsible for their own application deployments. If you work in a dev shop similar to one of these, you'll find Visual Studio 2010's Web Deploy feature is quite handy and should meet most of your deployment needs out of the box. But it's also easily extensible to get those few unique deployment tasks you may have configured and ready to go.
