You must pay for VS professional. You can download VS community for free. No one is going to give you a license for VS professional, it is not a cheap piece of software.

VS Community 2015 is too heavy. Is there any other C++ compiler which can fulfill the same role as VS Compiler Community without taking too much space?

[JayhawkZombie]

Well Visual Studio Community is the whole IDE, not just the compiler, but there are a plethora of compilers and IDEs to choose from.
More minimal compiler + IDE options are Code::Blocks + MinGW

Another option is codelite. http://codelite.org/
