Overall Satisfaction with Progress Telerik UI
We have worked extensively with Telerik's React, Blazor, MVC, WebForms and PDF Document Processing controls for a variety of applications.
- Great support
- Good quality UI components
- Great UI control performance
- Poor PDF library: generated files were MASSIVE in size. We switched to Syncfusion because of this issue.
- Poor user experience with their date picker components (too many clicks to choose a year in the past)
- Documentation could be more complete
- Telerik launches iOS components and then dropped them
- Great support
- Great performance for React and Blazor components
- Diverse components with sufficient depth
- Faster to develop apps
- Better quality apps
I purchased Telerik because its components seemed great and were priced more attractively than Syncfusion. Unfortunately, after hitting major product limitations with Telerik's Document Processing for PDF I now find myself migrating from Telerik to Syncfusion. This has been an expensive lesson.
