    We didn't use SyncFusion for long. We found that if you did anything custom, the controls simply didn't behave the way you would expect. Very annoying for us.

    While the more expensive to use for a small shop(for example syncfusion is free to start), the quality paid for itself in no time flat. Other options are either half baked, have lock in and will become quite expensive once you hit a treshhold, or plain simply didn't mesh with …

    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.

    • I have not worked with the App Builder but I think a GUI for dragging and dropping components to build a web page would be great.
    • In addition to the app builder there should some tools to design a responsive web application to see the results for different screen sizes.

    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.
