a) Scenarios where Kendo UI is well suited: Kendo UI provides awesome ways to either extend existing widgets, create custom plugins that are completely new widgets or composite of existing Kendo UI controls by inheriting from the base widget class. Kendo UI works well with ASP.NET Web API and OData. b) Scenarios where Kendo UI is less appropriate: Don't know.

Kendo-grid is impressive, we have used grid in all our pages and modules with ease. Data binding and providing filtering sorting parameters are very good. Kendo-calendar is providing way better options to customize date control with various requirements in our application. Kendo-multiselect control provides better options for all kind of dropdownlist possibilities. From my own experience working on filtering data from grid using Kendo Dynamic LINQ (.Net Core Web API), sometimes in such scenario where query is holding result from multiple tables where filtering/sorting is not applied on specified column.

[Progress Kendo UI] is highly recommended for large projects. Its use saves time by using fewer lines of code. I have noticed good performance even at low internet speeds. It is less appropriate for those developers who are just getting started in this market because the price is very high, so that is why I have not raised my score.

It allows us to extend the components or create new components in an easy way. The control suite is complete and powerful enough that you do not need to consider other competing packages. The controls are relatively easy to implement and when we ran into problems the documentation and online support were very reliable.

Progress Kendo UI is well suited in scenarios where we need a much richer UI tool kit, faster and robust developments. For speedy implementation and faster performance scenarios, we can use the Progress Kendo UI. It provides a very user friendly UI. The initial training for using the Kendo UI is hardly one or two weeks after which resources can be onboarded easily to work in projects.

Kendo UI is well suited in cases where you need to show a lot of data and be able to perform CRUD operations on it. If building a single-page app, Kendo UI would be a great tool to use to leverage retrieving remote data. There is a learning curve so I would recommend a developer practice before using this tool in a production environment.

If you're looking for an easy and robust way to display your data in a grid, this is a great product. Progress Kendo UI controls can also make your web site look very professional and give it a lot of functionality out of the box. It would probably be less appropriate if you're building Web API's since it's designed for a UI experience.

  • Kendo UI works very well with Angular.
  • It supports pagination, virtual grid
  • It support both server side filtering and local data filtering
  • Server side data call is not only supported by grid, but also drop downs, lists, tree -list etc.
  • All input elements contains necessary event handlers like onchange, onsubmit, onfocus etc.
  • All elements comes with default styling which already looks good but you can also change it as per your liking

We have migrated our old product to MVC. In old version we have used asp.net controls but those are quite difficult for implementation. But with kendo UI that made easy. We are using kendo grid for performance CRUD operations for most of the functionality. Grid is very easy to implement and it provides various configurations like paging, sorting, filtering. we can use Tool bar to to provide buttons like Add, Edit, Delete and Export to excel.
We have used every where and in every scenario kendo UI only so do not find any less point with it.

If your application is not data intensive, then Progress Kendo UI can be considered. If your web application is complex and requires multiple controls to be used, go through Progress Kendo UI's Library and you will almost always find what you need. Progress Kendo UI has coverage for almost all recent web platforms, so if you are looking for something outside that, it won't work.

We upgraded a large web application by plugging in componentized versions of the Progress Kendo UI functionality. This allowed us to do a complete visual revamp without a large scale rewrite. On the back of that, we have continued to add more features (all based on Kendo) to increase user experience and productivity.

Kendo UI is perfect when you start to develop the application from scratch and it is less appropriated when you have different architectures applied in a existing project. They always update their portifolio and give new functionalities to be used. They have always updated their set of components to be used to latest technologies.

Rich web development where you want to easily inherit the use of libraries such as jQuery, Bootstrap, Angular. Kendo UI is valuable to me in that I do not have the skills or patience to develop components on my own, and Kendo provides fairly easy plug-and-play components. I am new to JS, jQuery, and HTML development in general and found it fairly easy to learn how to develop nice looking pages for our product in short order.

I have found that responsive development for phones is not as clean using Kendo. I would say that tablet sized screens and up are the sweet spot.

In any complex interface working with tabular data, where you need to have a variety of ways to edit/manage the data at the record level. The suite has a very mature documentation and support system, implementation is highly standardized.
