We were a small team and loved visual source safe. I also wondered about his claim that he couldn't download a copy - yes, he was unaware you could allow multiple checkouts.

We were forced to migrate to SVN which I remember as being a pain compared to VSS.

The worst was our GIT migration. At the time it was not an easy Integration with visual studio. The process of migrating history was a challenge. We lost control of the process - suddenly GIT and corporate defined the process which for a small team was overkill and burdensome. The builds became laborious and time consuming.

This was years ago. I'm sure they've worked all that out now.
