Pros

“My overall experience is highly educational; these components act as a learning toolkit that shows me how professional applications are built while letting me create them easily. Although there is a learning curve due to the many features, the ability to build complex grids and forms without deep expertise makes it an invaluable resource for my growth as a developer.”

Cons

“My overall experience with Essential Studio has not been very good. While the component library offers many features, I have run into too many issues with Syncfusion components. When problems come up, it can be difficult and time-consuming to get them resolved, especially when the issue is inside the component itself. Because of this, I am now making steady progress removing Syncfusion integrations and replacing them with my own custom components for better control and reliability.”

“The large number of available properties can be overwhelming for a beginner, making it hard to know which settings to use for simple tasks.”

“We used to use it to render expand/collapse rows that have another complex component as a child, which introduced accessibility issues.”
