Overall Satisfaction with Kendo UI

We are using Kendo UI for our website. It is used by our department. Specifically, we have used Kendo Masked Text Box for accepting zip codes from users. The Mask property of this control is very useful as we can add specific masks as per our clients' requirements for zip codes (e.g. in the US, there are various zip codes as per states. In this case for zip code we used masked text box).
  • We can use Kendo Grid for showing records from the database. We just have to call the controller method on read method to bring records from the database. Also, using the toolbar, we can add buttons and use those to add, edit and delete records from database. In these ways, Kendo grid is very helpful.
  • Masked text boxes. We are using masked text box for accepting zip code from user. Using mask property of this Kendo control, we can take specific input from users, e.g. 112-233-455.
  • Spinners. Kendo spinners are very useful for showing work is in progress. On button clicks, we are showing spinner until page gets loaded.
  • We have used Kendo Editor in our website for accepting large text input from the user. But the space between two words is getting saved as an upside-down question mark in our database and when users edit such content on the web page, it’s getting displayed as the question mark. So we had to do some extra work to fix this.
  • Like numeric and masked text, we also need a plan text box for accepting any input from user.
  • There should be an easy way to add custom CSS style or class to controls other than the inbuilt Kendo CSS classes. If we want to add some CSS styling to controls then we have to remove inbuilt CSS class first and then have to add a custom class or style property.
  • Increased our clients
  • Increased business
  • Increased client satisfaction
Kendo is easy to set up and upgrade. It is easy to use for developers and we can make attractive UI, so it automatically increases business.
Kendo UI provides more control on UI fields as it has various properties associated with it. We can use the mask property for accepting input in a specific format.
