Likelihood to Recommend Angular is our framework of choice for a number of reasons. Business data is almost always displayed in a grid format. It makes sense to start with a strong widget that is powerful and fast when building applications. Ignite UI provides a complete toolset of widgets for other frameworks, but Angular is our focus. Ignite UI is helping us deliver a great UX/UI.

We have used the Telerik UI controls for our Admin user experience. We found that this lead to consistent user experience, with feature rich functions already provided. Effectively this meant that hour for hour, using the Telerik UI improved productivity in creating screens with more functions than using the default controls in
ASP.NET . At this point most of our focus with the Telerik controls is User Interface oriented.
Read full review Pros The examples are great and close enough to real-life usage to be truly helpful The OOB configuration and themes are good. They are very configurable. The touch support and response web are built in, allowing the same code to work well on desktop and phone. Read full review Progress Software Corporation
Easy to configure with application. It provides flexibility for complex grid customizations. Takes less time for quick development UI elements. UI is very responsible, which can be viewable in any device. Great support from Telerik team. It only takes 24 to 48 hours to resolve your issues. Read full review Cons I would like to see examples with security tokens. It really isn't an Ignite UI issue, but would be helpful. Some of the examples are over-simplified, not how the products would be used in real life. Read full review Progress Software Corporation
I'd like to see the radwebcam include the ability to read/decode barcodes or QR codes and possibly raise a barcode read event. The visual studio add-in takes a while to load, so I constantly get the slow add-in warning from visual studio 2022 some of the winform controls seem to have poor performance such as carousel.

Telerik UI support is what you are paying for. If something does not work you ask them for an example of how to solve your use case. The SEO on their sites is awesome and so well bedded into Google. The videos are good, [they're] not used much but their examples and DoJo examples make all the difference.

The controls work very well as long as they are used as intended. Built-in functionality should be used whenever possible,
Read full review Alternatives Considered We tried DevExpress when we started a project a couple of years ago. At the time, the documentation and ease of use went to Infragistics. When trying new or updated tools, the documentation and samples are everything. Having minimal documentation or documentation that seems to be written for people that already know how to use the product is just plain frustrating. Samples need to be something close to the real-life usage of the product.

Progress Telerik UI provides a large amount of language support, demos, and documentation. While the competition is still great in their own right, Progress Telerik UI has provided enough resources to cover a number of current and future projects without having to expand to other libraries.
Read full review Return on Investment There is a learning curve, of course, but the comparisons between the projects with and without Ignite UI are worth it. The time savings on development is very real. The built-in functionality is amazing. We are able to focus on features rather than getting the look and feel of our deliverable.
