Progress (was Telerik)

Man, they are proud of their stuff... Eeeet 'spensive Lucy. I was playing with their Theme Builder. It doesn't provide anything close to an exhaustive theming experience (colors only, and not even all of them), and some of the results are just plain weird, especially if you want to setup a dark theme. Progress Sass Theme Builder[^] BTW, "Progress" is a STUPID f*ckin name...

Currently trying out DevExpress, also proud of their stuff, but very impressed so far. :)

They also have impressive support. Or at least had when I used to use them.

Our shop uses Telerik, so there's no hope of changing to something else. :/

I've used DevExpress for almost a year now... very happy with their product, and support is quite responsive. Minor updates monthly, with 2 majors each year. I've been really glad we pulled the trigger on this one, and if I had to do it again, I wouldn't hesitate.

It's to make it harder to search for it on the net -- they're following ms' example, and making the UX as uncomfortable and as time-wasting as possible.

:thumbsup: Thanks for the input! There is certainly no shortage of videos and code samples for their components. I'm finding the gridview (asp.net) to be fantastic, just having added exports for excel formats in a matter of minutes...worked the first time. :) Very nice indeed!

As a now semi retired single developer their stuff is way too expensive to use and their Xamarin tool box did not seem to offer much over the standard controls.

I created a “telerick ui mvc5 app” and then “configured” it. That caused over 100 “culture” .js files to be added to my project - without being asked first.

Like any of the managers would ever notice; it's not like they're interested in functionality. Try the Telerik or DevExpress stuff on a Windows that is set to "high contrast" for visually impaired users, and choose a bit larger font. Still, they make a lot of money with making non-standard stuff that is popular somewhere.
