HI.

I need an advice related to the installation the older version of VS2015 when the newest VS2017 is already installed.
The newest version of VS2017 was installed first, but I realised that SSDT version dedicated to VS2017 is not compatible with the Attunity 4.0 which I need to use (I can't use Attunity 5.0 because it is not compatible with target SQL Server 2016).
I have checked, that the only way to use Attunity 4.0 with my SSIS project is to open it in VS2015 + SSDT 16.5.
And here is the question , what bad can happen if I install side-by-side the VS2015 when VS2017 Is already installed on the same machine?
I prefer no deinstalation of VS2017 if it is not the must, cause the other people are using it already.
Please, provide me the possible scenarios of issues.
I only found some general notes like:

"We recommend that you install Visual Studio versions in the order in which they were released. For example, install Visual Studio 2013 before you install Visual Studio 2015."
