Overall Satisfaction with Progress Kendo UI

We use Kendo UI as a the main UI library for all the company's web applications. It's used across many projects right now, and I heavily rely on the grid and the scheduler components for core UI components, mainly in LOB softwares.
  • Very good grid component
  • Very good scheduler component
  • Stellar support
  • Basic components (e.g. editors) are not so much better than standar ones
  • Made possible to build complex and rich web applications
  • Standardization of the components across multiple apps
I have no experience with other commercial web UI libraries. I just tried some free alternatives but all of them lack the breadth of components and the support of a commercial tool.

Do you think Progress Kendo UI delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Progress Kendo UI's feature set?

Yes

Did Progress Kendo UI live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Progress Kendo UI go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Progress Kendo UI again?

Yes

Sometimes following the internal logic is not so easy, but overall it's fine. When you have a problem, anyway, you can contact customer support and receive a proper hint for what you're trying to do.
In just very few very specific and domain oriented cases I didn't get a full valid answer: usually the answers are spot on with examples.
Any web development, especially if it regards a web application and not a website.
