"Best Web framework-Asp.Net"
4/5
What do you like best about ASP.NET?

I like asp.Net because multiple developers can work on the same project using different languages such as VB. Net or c#. Also, it is easy to use because of its drag and drop functionalities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

Asp.net uses more Web server resources than others and it is expensive for small companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ASP.NET now is really heavy to work. it only works well and smooth with Microsoft tools , using it with real live environment is not that great.

"I like the tool but is not THE TOOL"
3/5
What do you like best about ASP.NET?

I'm not expert in web programing but i think is a good start point . In the internet is a lot of papers and manuals to start using asp.net . Also is free version of the IDE , i think is call Express . The feature i find most usefull was all the objects where there , just with a few clicks it gets done my screen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

If you are a front end developer is not for you , it gets the job done but is really ugly , comparing with other IDE that are no so simple but yes in the user interface . Also is not that easy to integrate with other server than IIS , you have tu ise another tricks to get the page working outside IIS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Is getting behind from other web tecnologies"
3/5
What do you like best about ASP.NET?

What i like in all the microsoft tool is how easy to find the component , hoy easy is to work with the entire tool , the wizards are really helpfull when you are starting o yo do not want to spent time coding for a simple aplications just to test something.Also is pretty confortable for the developers to use the framework and don't need to think about the need of other classes and objetc , also the way to use the xml for web services is so much more complete than other language , you jus have to focus on the code and your logic . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

In this case is getting behind a lot , other IDEs are third party components friendly and working pretty agile in any machine , with ASP.NET now is really heavy to work and develop a pretty simple web get really big , other that for me a is a huge minus is that the front end is really poor , and other ides has much more to offer in this particular case. Also work with IIS native but if you have other tipe of server you have to implement a few tricks to get it to work. Beside the fact that all the wizards help you writing code , somete time the final result turns really heavy for something that shuold be simple , i think microsft should focus in how to optimize the code generator.

"ASP.NET - decent web framework"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ASP.NET?

Currently almost all stack of asp.net is open-source, so it's allows much better tweaking and hacking you tools to optimize it for certain tasks. It's much easier to setup compared to many other web frameworks. And there is not alternatives for .NET. I don't remember any task i wasn't able to do with asp.net (and which can be done with other framework).

You can do development for asp.net inside Visual Studio, which is best (or at least one of the best) IDE with huge number of features, and it has a lot of 3rd party extensions/tools.

Nuget has a lot packages/libraries with easy setup/dependency resolve.

A lot of templates and services/apis out of box.

It allows overload almost any part of the internal system.

Quite good documentation on MSDN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

For hosting you need windows (mono under linux has some limitations, and it sometimes requires a lot of additional work on platform specific bugs and initial setup).

it less convenient compared to java websites, so sometimes it harder to find developers.

MUCH less open-source projects. Especially in phase of active development.

And generally Microsoft targets enterprise more than other areas.

If you choose asp.net, probably you will be bound to a lot of other Microsoft components, so you will not be able change your platform after some point. For example, you will probably you SQL Server, just because it's very compatible with .net.

Costs of some development tools are astonishing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mature platform for writing complete applications"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ASP.NET?

It's so much that stands out in ASP.NET compared to other platforms... Security is great. ASP.NET comes with libraries that handle for you most sensitive parts of your application like Membership classes, authentication. The big feature of ASP.NET is the language - C# is backed by Microsoft and is one of the best programming languages out there. You can of course you asynchronous programming in ASP.NET. ASP.NET MVC projects follow Convention over Configuration principle so they come with great structure for your projects. Also, ASP.NET has WebAPI support built-in which means you can easily create REST APIs that output and accept JSON.

When you work on Windows then you experience another great benefit of working with ASP.NET - Visual Studio editor. It's the best programming IDE and it lets you focus on writing application's logic instead of fighting editor or debugging silly mistakes that could have been avoided. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

C# performance isn't as good as C++. I guess that's the one of downsides. Also, ASP.NET support on Linux isn't yet complete, so hosting very complicated large-scale apps directly under Linux operating system is still a risk that application won't be stable or won't run.
