Progress TelerikReviews of telerik.com

Pros: - lots of components (however most of them is just same or worse than free components available for web application (.net core / JS) - good grid component (table) - good scheduler Cons: - extremely inconsistent (API/documentation is ALL OVER the place, there is no way that I would let mid/junior level developer to work on this) - most of components is worse than free components available on MIT license - many important components are missing - there are big issues in how you can load/reload/init those components for ajax/.net views - did I've mentioned inconsistent API ? (methods/names/functions/behaviour/interaction/init) In general I am not sure who would use it, based on the fact that we have used only scheduler/grid (pdf exporter IS AWFUL, it is the worst exporter that I have ever seen, hardly useful for any case) we probably should have write own wrapper or go ahead and buy another component library. Their charts are a joke, awful and more like 2000's charts than what you GET FOR FREE from big chart libraries available online. Their support is a joke (we have a premium one, but they always hitting 24h response and often their response is USELESS as they link documentation that in a first place was the issue). In general I DO NOT RECOMMEND TO ANY COMPANY. If you are an amateur that wants to quickly get few components off them to do your app for your master degree, then well maybe (if you are ok with the cost). If you are working in a company that either has more than 3 devs or wants to cut the costs then look further. Telerik only costed us huge amount of money in dev costs, wasted discovery phase etc. In general we've wasted 6 months worth hundreds of thousands dollars and we are removing almost all components (the new devs are always having same issues as we had in a first place).

Am right testing Telerik with Visual Studio. It has nice colors and cool UX. I am not absolutely convinced of the idea and advantage of Telerik! Will it speed up my projects or will I lose time with practicing. My developing environment will only include enterprise extensions that make the usage simple and which reduce developing time. Maybe they need some explanation marketing videos..

Quick and to the point response.

I don't think you can find better value for your money. We bought the WPF package for two key components but ended up using dozens. Overall it was critical in allowing us to finish our project on time and on budget.

great product, great function and great support!

Webinar and not a workshop I understand that this was a webinar and not a workshop, but would have liked more concrete examples of the process to take, questions to ask and examples of how it is done

I am asking for documentation about vue, more examples,

The bug was in .NET, not on their end, and the support was very helpful.
