The experience with Essential Studio has been gratifying, not only for the functionality of its components or the improvements they offer in each release, but also for the technical support giving 100% follow-up to each problem reported.

Many updates cause malfunctions in components from previous versions, Syncfusion Essential Studio is no exception, however its technical support is highly committed to continuous product improvement, creating successful customer support experiences. Generating software in Essential Studio manages to improve the processes of any organization, making it easy and intuitive.

The examples in the documentation are not enough. Should include more technical examples of component implementation

Great company to work with and it feels like the Syncfusion team are an extension of our own team. If you need components for your application development no matter what language, there is probably something in the tool set. I made the decision to use Syncfusion a long time ago and have never looked back. As development trends change and new languages come along Syncfusion are always there with up to date tools for the job.

Having a huge number of components ready built and fully customisable at hand is amazing. Saves so much time and they help make applications look great. The support from Syncfusion is probably the best support I have received in my time being a developer.

I think sometimes the documentation could be better. It is not always easy to find the help you need to perform a specific task but this is always countered by top notch support.

Generally great.

Lots of great features and they don't want an arm and a leg before you can use them.

Windows Forms code is all in the designer which makes it very difficult to focus on/find the useful parts.

Includes a lot of features, and add new features. Has some free books.

The documentation is very bad. Include only very basic and unreal samples The support is very bad I spent one year with some errors with the report component. They fix one bug with the report and added 5 or 6 errors. I moved to Devexpress and after some years they still continue working with the bugs. I tested xamarin and the demo includes a lot of errors. I tested angular and got a lot error several weeks and support doesn't help me.

I have never used any Syncfusion products before, and also using .Net 8 is quite new to me. So of course I got stuck. But the support staff at Syncfusion is amazing. Not only did I get help with the particular component, but they provided an explanation with code fix directly in my own code to demonstrate that it worked.

It's a different GUI to get used to, and it has a bit different user story than what I am used to working with (Visual Studio and Rider)

I used syncfusion. It has the best Data tables(Syncfusion Datagrid) evever

A bug with syncfusiondatagrid table serach function which was later fixed

We are happy using these components, we are always looking forward to new versions with their improvements.

I like many components that allow many functionalities to be integrated within the same application such as projects and spreadsheets.

everything is very good, there are components that are maturing and the graphics could improve a little more

It is a must have, great looking apps, with extra features that we don't need to "waste"time developing.

Easy of use, features and a amazing support team

nothing to point, usually everything can be made with more or less code.

Syncfusion team support me good enough and I had an occasion to use their product fully , with well documents. Their tools are powerful for me to work on Visual Studio, run well with Nuget, remind me every time new version release. Very professional and quality products, cross many technologies and platforms. Highly recommend.

The code was written in the most elegant way. Reading its source is easy to understand.

I can not search the related topic correctly with Guide center. But the ticket works, and I got the right support

1. Providing various program environments 2. Prompt response

1. Appropriateness of Examples 2. I wish the manual were enhanced to facilitate the application of AI Examples.

* Variety of components. * Availability for several platforms. * Community license.

Quality of components is not the same like competitors. e.g. DevExpress

We only use very few controls from syncfusion in our MAUI app but they work great. I raised an issue once and it was resolved within a week with very quick responses.

No negative experiences with the software.

Overall experience is fantastic. Installation is straight forward, updates are published at a timely manner.

I like the completeness and in depth features of all the controls that I use, especially the data grid control which I use extensively. The sample application and online documentation is clear and succinct. I find that breaking down the examples by feature is great when compared to other control vendors I have seen, that simply provide a high level example and nothing to demonstrate each feature separately. On the few occasions that I have requested support, I have always received an answer in a timely manner. What makes the WPF suite good value is not just the number of feature rich controls, but the complete package including the documentation help and support that is available.

There are only two minor issues that I have with the suite of tools. 1. I get regular feedback from users that the date picker control is clunky to use. I can echo the feedback. Entering a date does not feel smooth, especially when entering the year. Hard to describe, but feel like it cycles back around to the year zero. 2. I would like it if I could customize the calendar control more. Would be great if I could easily template out the control for each date so I could use it to display what ever info I wanted in each date cell. Maybe there is a way to do this, but either way I have not been successful in being able to template out the calendar control for the requirements at the time.

I had to rely on their support team for almost everything when it came to integrating the scheduling component into my software because the documentation was really poor. There is a lot of documentation but the problem with it is that it just doesn't explain how to use anything. You'd find a reference to the problem you're having, and the documentation tells you what this thing is supposed to do but doesn't tell you how to implement it. At times it just seemed like it was written from the perspective of somebody who already knew how to use everything and that's obviously not very useful. The good thing is the support team is always willing to help (though I always had to wait until the next day for an answer) but the bad thing is that sometimes they didn't read my question carefully and ended up giving answers to questions I wasn't even asking. It was at times frustrating to deal with support (and I think the language barrier might've been the issue), but credit to them they were always polite and willing to help. I just wish I didn't need to call on them for everything. They also have a support chat and a few times I had a good guy who was able to be helpful, but other times the person answering the chat was almost useless, redirecting me to tier 2 support for even simple things. One guy even told me "Chat support is only a triage. We don't actually help you."

I got Syncfusion primarily for the scheduler component and having looked at other options, this was the best front end solution I could find for my software. It's not perfect, but it's very good in terms of functionality and user interface. I think my clients will enjoy using this scheduler.

It's a bit awkward to implement and the documentation is very poor. As for the scheduler, it comes with built in popup windows for creating and modifying events, but trying to get their styling to match my own was a nightmare because they did not use the same classes for every window, and not even the same classes for every button. It was surprising how inconsistent they were with their styling and that made it impossible to create consistent spacing and styling to match the rest of my system, so I ended up blocking all the popups and creating my own but this also was not easy or obvious. I had to contact support several times just to figure out how to use my own popups.

I really like the product suite. I find that I can do almost everything I need to do using their out-of-box experience.

I like having the large number of components in the bundle as it reduces the number of third party components I need to complete my projects. I also like how rapidly SyncFusion rolls out updates to their products and the quality and speed of response of their technical support.

I am not sure if this is SyncFusion Blazor specific or something inherent with Blazor itself, but the lack of Support for GUID in their dropdown list and other things like their event callbacks require that I change my GUIDs to string types in my models and then have to map them back to GUIDs for CRUD to the backend. Also, I really wish they had a good Step / Wizard component. I currently have to use Radzen's Step component for my WIzards and there are often CSS conflicts between Radzen and SyncFusion. If they do not add one, I will most likely have to create my own custom Step (Wizard) component before the project is finished.

This products solves almost all our needs along with the standard ui and productivity components on the platforms that we deliver solutions on. We are almost entirely an angular/typescript, asp.net core and Xamarin shop. This makes our life much simpler and the less complex and we are able to deliver multi-platform solutions quickly to the customer and make our own customer service more responsive.

This products solves almost all our needs along with the standard ui and productivity components on the platforms that we deliver solutions on. We are almost entirely an angular/typescript, asp.net core and Xamarin shop.

Sometimes the documentation and examples leave something to be desired but the very quick and responsive customer support more than compensates for that.

Essential Studio has addressed two of my critical requirements:1) Implement feature rich components in my software without having to write them myself. 2) Have consistent, flexible and attractive UI styling in my products.

Essential Studio provides key UI components for my products. Particularly import is the Grid component, which is widely used in my products. I use Essential Studio in both WCF and Blazor apps and gain a lot of productivity in learning to use a single component provider. The broad range of components means I can use Syncfusion for everything which makes consistent UI styling a snap. Customer support and documentation is very good.

I dislike having to generate a new product key when I update releases.

The range of components, as well as the possibilities for customization. Weekly updates.

The need for writing CSS to customize the components. There are still some essential components missing, like form layout, grid layout and spreadsheet. Also strongly dislike the new pricing model which does not allow the purchase of single licenses.

We have been using Syncfusion for a long long time (about 8+ years). We were looking for a component suite which had all the necessary parts required for our software. At the time (and this still ultimately holds) Syncfusion were only the only ones to have a web Diagramming component AND all the other components (editable grids, hierarchical grids). An added bonus were the file handling packs (Excel, etc) so we can offer with our solution integration with Excel. We've just recently upgraded the diagramming component to the new JS version and the feedback from our customers has been nothing but positive.

There are a couple of things: - Documentation - The online documentation has bugs in that demos don't load and sample code cannot be seen. - Quality - Sometime the QA of the components could be a bit better.

Really like them

Great Controls, great Service, Timely iterations

Behind in Maui and Blazor controls. There is nothing else

The product has a lot of components and a lot of customizations. at first it costs a little to use, but support is excelent. It is the reason why I prefer this product to another. Excel, doc and pdf library are fantastic!

Some components, pdf viewer, file explorer are complicated to use, so I use other components

We've had a good experience. As mentioned the Blazor compononent enabled us to bring first version of a green field application to test a lot faster than we would have been able to without. Moving forward, we find ourselves in some case replacing some Blazor components with own development. Many Sf components still remain

The Blazor component suite offered is a host of fully feature components that significantly sped up our entry into a green field hosted Blazor Webassembly application

Some feedback from developers mentioned in some case to much configuration of components in 'magical strings'

We are using React JS components. I like the wide list of components /controls available in the library.

We are facing many challenges while integrating the Synfusion ReachJS components in our applications. Many of the times we are facing very fundamental issues with the library and many of the use cases are not tested properly before rolling out for the product usage. We are keep raising a lot of tickets to resolve the issues but it is impacting our time and the quality of our application.

Thrilled to be using this product. I was sceptical at first to use this product thinking about long learning curve but was surprised that I could get along within 30 minutes of first using the product.

Was easy to setup and use the first time around without much effort, and you have any issues just raise a Support Ticket and found that the Customer Support would reply within 24 hours and they went a step ahead and would resolve any issues even unconnected with their product and every support ticket resolution at every stage includes a working sample created. Regarding the competition that I have used, they would take 72 hours to reply and generally requires 4-5 interactions before the issue is resolved, and support generally involved only around their product.

Documentation seems inadequate, I feel they could improve on the documentation and that is where the Competition was better. I feel with better documentation online, raising Support Ticket would be reduced to minimum. Even when documentation is available it is sometimes a huge task to search them. Secondly sometimes feature requests takes a long time to get implemented, I can see some of them being requested over a year ago and still not implemented.

I have used many component libraries to develop applications for many years and Syncfusion provides the clearest and most intuitive programming model. It has very good documentation and support. Until now I have been able to develop almost any type of application in blazor with great quality

I really like the programming model, it is much less complicated than other similar products on the market. The product is very well supported and they update it very frequently

Not much. Most components are very useful. Maybe the lack of a component to view spreadsheets in blazor
