Pros / Cons
  • I think the most impactful thing about Axure for us was the prototyping and the EASE to share & collab with another project members, doing a real time collab and working perfectly when we needed to show our work.
  • Takes too long to update to the latest version that the entire team can view.

  • Outstanding breadth of high-quality components, excellent Blazor support (Scheduler, Dialogs, Data controls), fast and reliable performance, clear docs with runnable examples, responsive support, frequent updates, and easy theming.
  • I cannot replace Syncfusion's internal styling entirely with DaisyUI classes because you don't have direct access to the component's internal HTML tags
