Arkabrata  Ghosh - PeerSpot reviewer
A scalable tool with great auto-configuration capabilities
The best feature of Spring MVC is its auto-configuration capabilities. A user need not configure anything in the product as it offers configuration files to set profiling and guide users with what they need to connect for development, staging, or production. The auto-configuration is one of the best components of the solution.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Provides a lightweight runtime."
"The solution is stable."
"We use the solution to create microservices."
"Spring MVC is fast and reliable."
"The solution can scale."
"Spring MVC's extensive documentation is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is open-source and free to use."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is simplicity."
"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 interface is the solution's most valuable aspect."
 

Cons

"The tool needs to improve its messaging."
"Deployment of microservers in the Kubernetes environment is difficult."
"Its performance speed could be improved while working on the browser."

"It can be difficult for a basic user to understand the concepts in this solution, such as inversion of control."
"It could provide faster performance."
"The newer versions of Spring MVC have released a lot of features that we are not using right now because, in many cases, we are limited to running older versions. As such, it would be nice if Spring were to improve support for upgrading to newer versions, especially for legacy applications."
"I expect the solution to offer and include a lot of packages so that it can be configured more easily or the speed level increases, thereby helping it overcome its shortcomings."
"The solution could be simplified quite a bit. It's unnecessarily complicated in some areas."
"The initial setup could be more straightforward."
