ASP.NET Reviews

I have been using ASP.NET and Microsoft technologies for more than five years. I have never been this much addicted to a language like I am right now with C#. We have been using ASP.NET framework from mobile development to web development. It just works like a perfect solution to each possible project I've come across in life up till now.

There was a gap between developing mobile application some years ago but since Xamarin is in the family of Microsoft, which is a pretty cool cross-platform technology, there is nothing you can't do with Xamarin in the mobile world. It was useful for our organization to reach out for the mobile projects as well.

Most of the important things that would be good in the next release could be support in tooling and design of cross-platform app development.

Below are the coolest features of ASP.NET which I found valuable:

• Cross-platform and container support
• High performance
• Asynchronous programming via async/await
• Unified MVC and Web API frameworks
• Multiple environment and development mode
• Dependency Injection
• WebSockets and SignalR
• Cross-site request forgery protection
• Self-hosted web applications
• Action filters
• Globalization and localization
• Profiler

Although ASP.NET is a full package for any sort of development, whether be it in web or mobile, each part has been covered well enough but there is always room for improvement. I am pretty sure that Microsoft is working in the same direction to ease the pain of developers. I won't point out anything but I am going to enjoy the fact that it's pretty cool to solve something on our own rather than just complaining about something which we haven't tried. However, who said it's going to be easy, but nobody said it's impossible. The most important thing to improve in the next release would be support in tooling and high-level designer toolbox for cross-platform mobile app development.

More than five years.

• Stability
• Easy to use
• A lot of resources available on the internet
• Full support from the vendor

Our main product is built using ASP.Net. So, basically, ASP.Net is helping us formulate the future of our company.

Improving the project ready templates will add a great amount of value. They also need to find a way to fix the references that are not .Net built neither in assemblies nor available in NuGet packages.

I've used it for more than 11 years.

In older versions there were issues, however, most of these issues have been fixed in the newer versions.

Not really.

There were issues in the older versions, but usually scalability is an architectural issue, not an implementation one.

Customer Service:

It's excellent.

Technical Support:

It's excellent.

I worked on Java and PHP, and switched because of the features mentioned above.

It is very easy and straightforward.

We did it in-house.

1. Easy to use and develop pages. 2. Its web applications are professional class. 3. With support from other .NET languages any knowledge of .NET can help one move around ASP.NET. Others: include VB.NET, C#

1. The pages are relatively large and hence may be slow. 2. It is not open source so i find it expensive to buy although as a company it is worth it purchasing but as an individual developer it is too expensive. 3. If you want to test your site unit wise with ASP.NET that is not an easy task.

ASP.NET is very easy to use if one is familiar with .NET framework.

1. No ViewState or "surprise crap". 2. Faster server-side. 3. Simplified model for multiple related views. 4. Unit testable.

1. Difficult to convert an existing site. 2. Not best for SEO out of the box. 3. Challenges if you’re not running IIS7.

If I needed to build a new site from scratch, and was able to use IIS7, it would be extremely likely that I would choose ASP.NET MVC. It’s a joy to work with (possibly because it’s "new"), and just makes sense. If I needed to work with an existing site, I would certainly have to consider the pro’s and con’s I mentioned above. ASP.NET MVC gives us an amazing new tool in our huge Microsoft toolbox.

Rapid Development Easy to learn Wide range third party controls availability

frequent version upgrade make you feel outdated unless you keep yourself updated

We primarily use the solution to create workflows, forms, and applications. 

I like that, with the Asp.net platform, you can create forms, applications, and workflows in Power Platform.

The initial setup is straightforward.

It is stable. 

We find the solution to be scalable.

I like that it is open-source and free to use. 

We haven't had any issues with the product.

It could use better reporting and documentation. 

We've used the solution for at least the past 12 months.

We find the product to be stable. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

The scalability of the product is good. It's easy to expand.

We've dealt with support and find them to be helpful and responsive. We are completely satisfied with the level of support we can receive. 

The setup is pretty straightforward and simple. It's not a complex process.

This is an open-source product. We do not have to pay to use it. 

I'd rate the solution ten out of ten. We've been very happy with its capabilities.
