  • jQuery UI and knockout js
One of our partner companies is using Kendo UI for jQuery. In order to exploit synergies with our partner we selected Telerik Kendo UI for jQuery. Other selection criterias were a) the longevity of Telerik, b) the Support, c) the Performance and d) the scalability.

I did not experience the other product that has such an integrated and user-friendly feature. It works more like an everyday query with the UI element in a totally aesthetic and attractive view. With the Kendo library, we don't need to develop every UI component from the beginning. It was one of the faster development of applications.

We currently use data tables in most of our applications that require a grid to be able to asynchronously perform CRUD operations on our web applications. It has served us well but Kendo UI has more widgets and better documentation to get the job done. Given the time, we would like to implement Kendo UI where data tables are.

We wanted to use software which is easy to learn and implement for UI. we did some research and used few controls and we found that we can go with kendo UI. Look and feel wise Kendo fits perfectly. so we decided to use it through out the product. it is good software in reasonable price.

We think that Kendo is a better option considering the cost/benefit relationship.

Is important for us to make a good balance between cost and benefit and Kendo UI provide this two goals, we gain in productivity and improve our users experience with little effort.

Kendo UI give us the opportunity to focus on our business logic insted of UI complexity.

It seems that Kendo UI is most complete tool of the market. Moreover, the documentation and examples seems to be better than other competitors. They always tries to bring the best in class UIs, even with new overcoming technologies. Rarely I see a bug in the system, that brings stability to the applications.

I briefly looked at Vaadin but the cost was higher, and look-and-feel seemed archaic. Google developers toolkit seemed to have too many dependencies and poor documentation.

I have never seen a good drag-and-drop designer for web development aside from Adobe's legacy product (Flex, FlashBuilder), which allowed a developer to create components, modify properties, events, and even state.

Kendo is the next best thing in my opinion.

At the time of our product selection we identified better cross-browser compatibility and we estimated that turnaround for support was superior. At the time, the vendor had a higher positive feedback footprint among their user community.

Kendo UI gets the UX

Infragistics. We currently have an active license, but are using Kendo UI much more. The documentation and examples ultimately made the difference in deciding where to expend our efforts. There is only so much time in the day to spend trying to learn new products. We will put the time to the choice that makes it easier to learn.

We have tried Component One's stuff as well as jQuery UI. Component One is good for their grids, but it is easy to get behind with them. jQuery UI just looks stodgy. We also looked at EXT for a bit, but it was too proprietary.

I have worked with Angular Material and Bootstrap more recently. They both work in a pinch, but if you need full featured components, Kendo is the way to go.

According to our needs Kendo UI offers the most complete library of controls and plugins. The grid, combobox and autocomplete controls were an absolute must to meet our needs. Kendo UI's reputation and the fact that many developers were already familiar with it also contributed to our choice. We wanted to avoir having numerous 3rd party libraries. With Kendo UI, we have one toolkit for all our controls.

Telerik support beats'em all
we tried both a while ago, many things led us to prefer telerik / kendo ui, and the quality of the components added to the support reactivityans the quality of the software documentation (and also the rythm of updates and releases) made us keep working with telerik ui components.
