[Overview](https://www.softwareadvice.com/app-building/asp-net-zero-profile/) Reviews [Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/app-building/asp-net-zero-profile/alternatives/) # ASP.NET Zero User Reviews ## Reviews summary - Overall rating: 4.7/5 - Total reviews: 49 ### Secondary ratings - Ease of use: 4.6/5 - Customer support: 4.4/5 - Value for money: 4.6/5 - Functionality: 4.6/5 ### Rating distribution - 5 stars: 38 reviews (78%) - 4 stars: 10 reviews (20%) - 3 stars: 0 reviews (0%) - 2 stars: 0 reviews (0%) - 1 star: 1 reviews (2%) ### Most mentioned pros - I haven't found a solution in the market that helps me kickstart my project the way ASP.net Zero did, it boosted our productivity 200%, is well designed, and is well documented with a very little learning curve. - Tech stack integrates easily into our AWS infrastructure environment - It is feature rich and covers all the must haves for a SaaS product, including authentication, authorisation, multi tenancy, auditing, logging and mobile solutions. ### Most mentioned cons - This is partly due to my own level (mid experienced but not high), partly due to the sheer complexity and many aspects but also due to the fact that the code has hardly any comments. ## ASP.NET Zero customer reviews Showing reviews 1-25 of 49 (page 1). ### Perfect! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Dave P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 5001-10000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2020 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Battle tested and complete solution. Very good support when you have a question. Works solid and codebase works also as great exemplar code. #### Cons Sometimes slow and needed optimization for speed #### Vendor response Hi Dave, thank you for your review. It is great to hear you are happy with ASP.NET Zero. Thank you for pointing out for the speed. We are always trying to make sure your job seamless and fast; and working on to make it happen. Thanks! Replied March 2022 --- ### System Architect - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Tyson G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Great product for the money! Even if you don't use the RAD tools, and just use it as a boilerplate on steroids it shines. When building an application, it includes a lot of things people leave out as they are nice to haves, but this product includes a majority of these things out of the box! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros When working with the code you soon notice the code is verry verbose and may seem like over kill at times. But the more you look into it you realize it is done just for best practice. This is where ASPNETZERO shines! It is basically a combination of a lot of open-source software that has been curated and assembled to work together properly. This is something most software shops can do and do well. That being said it still takes time & research to do it right, and all resources could be spent for a single app. I'm not sure how many customers ASPNETZERO has, but from the scope of features in the product, the quality of the code, and the amount of documentation available; they have been around the block. I have been using it for three years now and have used it for almost all my new application since. #### Cons The generator is nice and easy to use, but to get the most out of it you need to be willing to put in the effort to learn how to modify the generation templates. This is the one place that I feel is more like a black box, there is not a lot of documentation on this, and it takes a little skill, but the payoff is huge that being said. #### Reasons for choosing ASP.NET Zero Better overall features, and native code #### Vendor response Thank you for the thoughtful and insightful review! We're glad ASP.NET Zero has been a strong foundation for your projects over the past three years. We truly value your feedback on the code quality, feature scope, and documentation, it means a lot. Noted on the generation templates, we’re always looking to improve that experience. Thanks again for being part of the journey!

Support is pretty good - usually get a response with 3 working days We have a fairly common architecture (AWS / ELB / ECS / Docker) so most issues we come across are not with ASP.NET Zero as such and have been experienced and resolved already #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Modular design Separation of functions / services Tech stack integrates easily into our AWS infrastructure environment #### Cons Client use of Metronic theme - would love to see alternatives such as Material #### Vendor response Thank you for your review of ASP.NET Zero.

No incentive was offered We're pleased to have chosen ASP.NET Zero to implement or Event Management SaaS, all the features that come out of the box makes a high quality product very easily #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros How many features come out of the box to quickly develop a reliable, scalable and easy to maintain solution. #### Cons It might have a hard learning curve for beginners to understand all the features that come out of the box and how to customize them. But once you master it, it becomes extremely powerful. #### Vendor response Thank you for sharing your experience with ASP.NET Zero. We're thrilled to hear how our out of the box features have empowered your Event Management SaaS, making it easier to develop a high-quality product.

Replied January 2024 --- ### ASP.NET Zero allowed our start-up to quickly achieve production readiness - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Adam L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Public Safety - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: November 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Our experience with the ASP.NET Zero product, Volosoft organisation, and the community, to be overwhelmingly positive.I have, and would continue to, recommend this product to anyway with a need to quickly build a massively functional enterprise application, without sacrificing any of the best practices expected to be found in production-grade software. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Most of the infrastructural plumbing has been considered by the architects of ASP.NET Zero, and arranged within the application code-base in a sensible, clean and intuitive fashion. This removes one of the largest hurdles to application development - upskilling new team members to follow a homogenous set of patterns and practices. #### Cons Our greatest complaint - which I do see shared from others, is the difficulty in upgrading ASP.NET Zero. We estimate for our product, a 100-150 man hour cost to performing this upgrade - and parallel branches would be best avoided during this time, due to the scale of churn.Given it's nature - source-code rather than just a binary dependency - it's very easy to "mix" our product-specific changes into the ASP.NET Zero authored code.While ASP.NET Zero does support modularisation, which we expect would minimise this - there are some things that just are not possible - or are orders of magnitude more difficult to do in a modular manner.I would love to see a greater adoption of the Open-closed Principle and training documentation/best practices to better mitigate this weakness. #### Vendor response Thank you for your review and for taking the time to share your thoughts on ASPNET Zero. We're glad to hear that ASP.NET Zero allowed your start-up to quickly achieve production readiness. We appreciate your feedback on the infrastructural plumbing that has been considered by the architects of ASP.NET Zero and arranged within the application code-base in a sensible, clean and intuitive fashion, which is helpful to upskilling new team members. We're working on making the upgrade process easier and more efficient. We will consider your feedback about the difficulty in modularizing product-specific changes into the ASP.NET Zero authored code and the adoption of the Open-closed Principle and training documentation/best practices.

No incentive was offered I have been a software architect/developer for over 40 years and this is by far the best framework I have ever used.

So many great features... #### Cons Time consuming to upgrade to next release of Asp.Net Zero if you need a feature. That being said, have found the time to upgrade is still less than developing the feature. #### Reasons for choosing ASP.NET Zero After a quick trial it was obvious that it was well worth the money and after 5 years of use, that proved to be correct. #### Vendor response Hi Terry, Thank you for taking the time to review a ASP.NET Zero. It is great to hear that you are happy with ASP.NET Zero. Your review for the upgrades is duly noted and our developers are acknowledged about it.

The system allows sellers of building insurance to instantly calculate the annual premium based on value, age, etc. of the building.The ready-to-use client => controller => service => DB flow with all the surrounding authentication etc. supported the focus on application and web design. Many of the security and process flow features are already implemented. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The product can be downloaded, installed, configured and is is ready to log in in under 1h. The steps to do this are clearly described in the manual. All you need is an operating system (Windows server in our case) and a DB plus development environment.The functionality saves the tremendous effort for developing an empty framework of DB access, user management, browser page design etc. Many features are available and there are regular update with more.The integration of the client design system is always soon after the latest releases which allows to update the own application with latest features.The stability / robustness is outstanding. Yet to experience the first failure after 5 years of the application running an an environment with several hundreds of users creating millions of DB records.Extending the developed app or writing plugins is straight-forward. This is due to the well-organized architecture of the overall system. #### Cons ASP.NET is not for beginners. What is a beginner and what a pro? This is individual judgement. I found it difficult to take advantage of all the features and sometimes to find out where to implement or change what.This is partly due to my own level (mid experienced but not high), partly due to the sheer complexity and many aspects but also due to the fact that the code has hardly any comments. Sometimes it might make sense to have find some more key features documented in the code. #### Reasons for choosing ASP.NET Zero ASP.NET is a complex system which supports the development of an app. The claim on the first page on ASP.NET's home page "What is..." provides a comprehensive answer. And unlike so many other pages in this world after 6 years of usage I received what they promise: I save time & effort.Thank you ASP.NET team! #### Vendor response Thank you for your review! We're thrilled to hear that our ASP.NET Zero product has saved you time and effort in developing your insurance app. We appreciate your feedback about the difficulty in taking advantage of all the features and will take it into consideration for future updates. It's great to hear that the functionality of our product has been able to support your building insurance calculations and that you've experienced outstanding stability and robustness.

I have even recommended to our development partner that they should look to implement ASP.NET Zero for more of their clients because of how good a platform it is. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros We estimated that the existing out of the box features saved us well over 6 months of development time because they were already well implemented. Multi-Tenancy, the concept of Features, and role-based security were all key to our success. #### Cons We found working with the Metronic themes the most problematic, but that is relative since nothing was really terribly difficult. Upgrading to new versions were just more time consuming because of the Metronic themes. #### Vendor response Thank you for your fantastic review of ASPNET Zero. We greatly appreciate your positive feedback and are delighted to hear that it has provided the perfect foundation for your SaaS platform. We're thrilled that the out-of-the-box features saved you significant development time, particularly the well-implemented Multi-Tenancy, Features, and role-based security concepts. We understand your feedback regarding the Metronic themes, and we will continue to work on improving the upgrade process to minimize any time-consuming aspects related to them. Your recommendation to your development partner is greatly appreciated, and we're glad to hear that you would use ASPNET Zero again in the future. Thank you for your support and for choosing ASPNET Zero as your preferred platform.

We needed something that was easy to stand up that had that all built in already. #### Cons I really wish the product were a little easier to deploy functional components. After a while you realize the API does way too much for just one solution. #### Vendor response Thank you for your feedback on ASPNET Zero. We appreciate your positive comments about the role/permissions feature. We understand your suggestion regarding the ease of deploying functional components and the comprehensiveness of the API. Your input is valuable to us as we continue to improve our product. Thank you for choosing ASPNET Zero.
