User Testimonials
	Bold Reports, by Syncfusion	DevExpress Universal
Likelihood to Recommend	Syncfusion No answers on this topic	DevExpress When you want to display spreadsheet based reports, it's really convenient as it has everything out of the box. If you have very basic components like combo boxes or lists, there is hardly a point in using such a large component set. In the end, it's a matter of finding a good balance between functionality and complexity. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Pros	Syncfusion No answers on this topic	DevExpress Handle large and complex datasets using its table widget (DataGrid) Handle large and complex hierarchical datasets using its tree table widget (TreeList) Customize widget to fulfill advanced requirements such as adding a complex grid inside a grid cell Incentivized John Franco CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review
Cons	Syncfusion No answers on this topic	DevExpress Documentation could be improved Better examples of code in languages other than C Better wizards for building applications Incentivized Craig Cormier IT Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Syncfusion No answers on this topic	DevExpress DevExpress Universal controls are much simpler to use, implement and customized as compared to Kendo. Learning curve for telerik is high, though level of customization that can be achieved with telerik exceeds that of DevExpress Universal. Found DevExpress Universal community support to be better then its competitors. License cost is also a wining bar here. Incentivized Verified User Read full review
Return on Investment	Syncfusion No answers on this topic	DevExpress It is good for asp.net application and it takes less time in development which we used two years back. We have stopped with these tools when clients were asking applications to be built in angular or react. We have switched to Kendo. Verified User Read full review
