.NET

The .NET framework is widely used and has good support from both Microsoft and the community. There is a lot of official documentation provided by Microsoft and other sites as well as myriads of discussions on how to accomplish particular tasks. For any problem you have, there is probably someone who has already had that problem and others who have helped them solve it. Additionally, there are many available libraries that you can leverage that simplify tasks to allow you to focus on writing your own business logic and doing your job.

Microsoft has a very detailed documentation of the framework that can easily be navigated and used for guidance. The official support forums are quite active and you can expect a response within 24 hours max. The community is huge and you can easily find solutions for your problem both online and offline.

You don't often need to reach out to Microsoft for .NET support. If you do, there are forums and websites that have active Microsoft support folks where you can provide feedback or get help. Microsoft support in general is quite good as well, but not cheap. The best support is from the community like StackOverflow.

Customer support has been amazing. .NET has an amazing online community that is very supportive. The abundance of .NET developers online as well as in the office has sped up our time to market.

When we have a problem and need to submit a ticket to Microsoft, their support has been extremely helpful and prompt.

As Microsoft Gold Partners, we do have access to a lot of additional information and support from Microsoft. Still, the availability of "open and free" documentation, community, and enthusiasts of the platform is vast. Added to that, the quality of resources provided for all the Microsoft ecosystem is very impressive.

Sometimes we have problems solving problems. It is difficult to reach experts.

Most of the support that .NET has comes from the user community rather than Microsoft. Microsoft can support you on the core library-related issues, but for anything outside of that, you will need to go to the user community to get additional support and insights. Luckily there is a large community for support!

Microsoft .NET is backed by Microsoft allowing you to have a robust support network. Microsoft .NET has been around a long time and this allows for many resources to be found easily on the internet. More than likely whatever issue you are having someone else has had it and has a solution that can be easily enabled.
