Pros

"The solution is stable."
"We use the solution to create microservices."
"Provides a lightweight runtime."
"The best feature of Spring MVC is its auto-configuration capabilities."
"Dependency Injection is one of the major features which makes our life easier using Spring. It is well documented and has active communities, which provide us enormous help."
"When we shifted from our legacy frameworks to the Spring framework, we discovered that Spring definitely made our development easier. One good example is that there is a lot of boiler plate code available that you don't have to write from scratch, making the development of web applications a much simpler process."
"The solution can scale."
"The most valuable features of Spring MVC are the modules, such as Spring Admin. All the Spring solutions work well together and are simple to maintain, such as the load balancing on the client side."
"We have found Spring is easy to use and learn."
"The interface is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"Spring has a speedy development process with a lightweight framework."
 

Cons

"Spring IDE​ needs some work and improvement. We have faced many issues when adding third-party Eclipse plugins."
"The solution could be simplified quite a bit. It's unnecessarily complicated in some areas."
"Spring MVC could improve the integration with DevOps and other applications."
