Overall Satisfaction with Progress Telerik UI
We use Kendo MVC UI to create forms for data entry and grids to display data. We have large amounts of data and some of the controls need to hold thousands of records. Kendo virtualization works well for this.
- It works well if you need to have a drop down control containing thousands of records. The virtualization feature only loads a small amount of data at a time and the type ahead allows users to quickly find the desired record.
- The grid functionality is better than most other comparable controls. The users like grouping, reordering, and hiding/showing columns.
- We ran into a defect several months ago. Telerik accepted the defect, but still hasn't provided a fix. There is no estimated time when it will be resolved.
- Improves productivity.
- Simplifies coding and greatly reduces JavaScript.
