- Pros

- Recommendations
Extensive API documentation: Several users have praised the extensive API documentation provided by the framework, which has allowed for easy integration and the ability to add specific functionality as needed.
Responsive controls for web development: Reviewers have consistently mentioned that the controls for web development are responsive out of the box. This has made it easy to create interactive and user-friendly applications.
Wide range of functionality: Many users appreciate that the framework's controls include a lot of functionality, such as presenting database information in logical formats and providing user interactive informational views. This allows for a consistent user experience across pages and applications.
Difficult learning curve: Some users have found that certain components of the software have a difficult learning curve, which can be attributed to the complexity of the control. This steep learning curve may require users to invest more time and effort into understanding and using these components effectively.
Breaking changes with version updates: Several reviewers have encountered breaking changes when updating to minor versions, such as licensing errors. These unexpected changes can disrupt workflows and cause frustration among users who rely on stable and consistent functionality. It is important for developers to carefully consider the impact of these changes before releasing new versions.
Limited theming options: Users have expressed frustration over the inability to theme components using CSS variables, which requires a fully custom solution. This limitation means that users cannot easily apply consistent visual styles across their applications or adapt to different design requirements. Offering more flexible theming options would enhance customization capabilities and improve user experience.
Users recommend exploring Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition in depth to understand its design concept. They suggest taking advantage of the community license and trying the trial version. Users highly recommend Syncfusion for any development needs as it reduces development time and offers a broad set of capabilities. Additionally, users mention that Syncfusion has the best set of tools available in the market and suggest contacting the sales team for great offers. However, users caution about potential performance problems and bugs in the Blazor tools. Overall, users recommend Syncfusion for implementing fast applications with visual and usability capabilities, and they appreciate the comprehensive support provided by Syncfusion for mobile, desktop, or web-based applications.

I use the framework along the develop of an ERP system of the company. Many of the elements of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition are in the differente pages to get better functions to the user and for me, as a software developer, a great save of time to develop new requirements or changes.
- The functionalities of the grids are very awesome. Withe then, the user interacts naturally with the system.
- The support of the framework is one of the best and mora faster than I know, congrutalions for that.
- I think one of the best options is the multiple versions to download. With that, it dose not matter what operation system or type of develop you are going to use, this framework is ver good.
- I think the documentation. I fell that you can improve with more examples or another redaction.
- Some of the controls slow the execution time in a considerable range.
- I think you can do a video channel vitw practices or examples.
- The support team who anwers the most difficult questions faster.
- The option of encapsulate a lot of functions in each control
- The great documentation and demos available to learn.
- First of all, I think the best positive impact is the reduce of time development. I do not know exactly how much time, but certainly, using the framework we save a lot of effort and time.
- About negative impact, sometimes using the controls of the framewrok have a signifcant impact in the execution time and page load.
- And of course, the use of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition has a significant impact of the learning of javascript and JQUERY.
Yes, I use another framework at the same time. I am going to be very honest: the other framework is very good. There are two aspects, one positive and other negative: - The positive aspect of the other framework is the execution time. Is more faster than Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition and when your add to the project, the increment of the size es less. - The negative aspect is that the funcionalities and the support is not as good as Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition

We develop information systems for the World Wide Web so I specifically use Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition versions for ASP.NET (Core) and JavaScript.
The products we develop are for other companies and address different types of problems. We have developed systems for:
The products we develop are for other companies and address different types of problems. We have developed systems for:
- Internal documents digitalization and make them available for external users based on user's privileges.

- Inventory control for items that an import/export company takes from USA to Mexico.
- We are currently developing a software for a church to make content available to the general public (preaching messages, training classes, etc.)

Firstly, there is a free version for small businesses and it allows you to jump start without risk. I found one of the other products a bit short in the number of out-of-the-box supported events handlers for each control and, although you can manually add them, I feel more comfortable to just have them ready. After using the free version I just felt in love with Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition controls and decided to stay with them; they have all I need and more. The usage of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition controls is straightforward and intuitive. Support is world-class even for the free version; you get answers in 24 hours at most. Also, the support team is ready to remotely connect to your project in case it is needed; we have had one situation like this, and the issue was solved.

As a UX Engineer, I am responsible for creating a Design System in coordination with our UX Designers. We bought Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition to help us get quick access to a great chunk of components. Some we still need to create ourselves of course. We created our own theme based on Material that is applied on top of the Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition components. Previously we had tried to create our own component library but we now appreciate the speed of using an existing component library. The documentation is mostly very helpful, sometimes some links don't work, but all in all, it's very easy to use and comprehensible. It is also very helpful to be able to view the source code which helps understand how some components work.
- API Documentation
- Demo Pages
- Support
- Sometimes links point to dead addresses in the documentation.
- Some components have a difficult learning curve but that is usually due to the complexity of the control.
- Minor version changes introduce breaking changes, for example updating from 20.1.x to 20.2.x gives us licensing errors, which in my opinion is a kind of breaking change as it requires all users to update their licenses.
- Theming with CSS variables is not possible. Access to Theme Studio code is not possible. So a fully custom solution is needed to make Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition components themeable with CSS variables.
- The support/ticket system. We get quick answers to any issues we have.
- It's hard to tell at this early stage but the development teams generally give good feedback as they no longer have to worry about creating components themselves.
- The initial effort to get everyone to use Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition is high, but it's slowly establishing itself as very useful within our organization.
We evaluated DevExpress and two other libraries, whose names I've currently forgotten. But in the end, it was a race between DevExpress and Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition, as they both offer a great amount of components with rich documentation. In the end we chose Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition as it was much cheaper than DevExpress (about half the price), so even if it may offer slightly fewer components, the price-value relation is much better. But both libraries offered a great number of components, great support, and community experience, great documentation, so it basically just came down to pricing.

I would say at least 10 people use it, but it is supposed to be used by every developer that does Frontend Web Development so it should expand to 20-40 people in the end, I guess. They are all developers, and then there are two UX Engineers that take care of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition in the scope of our own Design System, as writing styles, offering support to Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition users, and so on. Our Designers also use Syncfusion Demo pages to ensure that their designs also correlate with what Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition has to offer.

There's me and one other UX Engineer who take care of supporting Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition in-house. Of course, if there is a team of developers, there may be further people within those teams who have built up knowledge on Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition over time and give "in-team" support, but officially it's only the UX Engineers that do in-house support. The skills required are a good knowledge of Frontend Web Development, and also a keen eye for design. Communication skills are required to talk with designers and developers, and also to explain how Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition works.
- Quick implementation of new frontend pages or functionalities.
- Less stress due to centralized provision of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition (and our own Component Library).
- Saving money as all components from Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition doesn't have to be written in-house.
- We were accidentally able to clone the Theme Studio and extend it according to our needs (CSS variables instead of SCSS variables, to enable theming).
- Giving back, so we are also able to create Pull Requests on Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise Edition's GitHub, maybe we will be able in the future to also give back to the community (but we have nothing planned so far (-; ).
