"DataTables with Bootstrap 4"
What do you like best about Datatables?

DataTables makes it easy to create a grid that looks good and brings a lot of functionality with the ability to extend the DataTable with their plugins. My favorite feature is the ability to use server-side AJAX calls for the interaction (sorting, paging, searching). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

There isn't much to dislike about DataTables. Having all the extensions added to DataTables can make the file size quite large but most of those features are great to have with DataTables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Go-to tool for large tables on the web!"
What do you like best about Datatables?

Datatables is my go-to tool for setting up large tables on websites for our clients. Table data can be provided in many ways, e.g., via HTML, via Ajax calls. Extensions allow additional functionalities such as setting up advanced queries (SearchBuilder), downloading the table data as Excel spreadsheet, CSV etc., editing the data (Editor), etc. In addition, many different table styles are supported and can be customized, allowing a consistent look and adjustments to client requirements.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

I can honestly not think about anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"the perfect plugin for iterating with tables"
What do you like best about Datatables?

When I discovered datatables, now a couple of years ago, I was amazed! It allows you to create iterazinones in the tables, in a simple and complete way. You can feed txt files, json or simply html tables, perhaps extrapolated with server-side programming language, and he creates tables with a search engine included, with the possibility of sorting, you can insert buttons and program them to do what you want you. And not only that: there are many features, all present and explained with examples on the official website, which I still have to implement. Depending on your needs, you will find the right solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

all beautiful things also have some patches. In my opinion, perhaps, the search for advanced features is a bit complex. Let me explain: the site is complete with everything, but perhaps to look for advanced features, it is a bit problematic. Also, having server-side language, javascript and advanced functionality coexisting is not so immediate. But it is feasible, depends on the skill of the programmer.

"Best tabular plugin with jquery"
What do you like best about Datatables?

The best thing about datatables is it is easy to integrate and can customize as per requirement. With the help of jquery it is much more easy to use. It can handle large amount of data fluently and it just don't increate site loading time and paginate large data. Searching option is also best among all other features of datatables, you can search throughout the table or you can add for separate column wise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

Datatables is already much more powerfull plugin. but I got issue few times with the styling to table and making responsive to it. While exporting large data sometimes crashes the website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Bloated and Complicated"
What do you like best about Datatables?

Datatable would be very nice for project with simple usages, like small tables with very common needs. Like most solutions, it allows people to quickly setup nice look tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

There are several problems with datatable. When you try to do some customization , the code started to look like alien language. Simple task like custom row coloring can be daunting.

There are also performance issue on big tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great option for building tables in record time"
What do you like best about Datatables?

The possibility of building improved tables with options such as filters, orders, paging and responsive design in a very short time. In addition, you can customize all of this with different options, such as choosing which columns can be sorted or filtered between other alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

The documentation is not very clear or intuitive, so you will have to search a bit on the Net to find out some answers. Datatables are not easy to use, so the first time can be a little tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Tables on steroids! For Free!"
What do you like best about Datatables?

Datatables is FREE! but not's not all! It works great an implementation is really a breeze.

No more static tables on your html pages, and setup is pretty straightfoward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

Not knowing more javascript, but that is not a problem of Datatables nor did it keep me from not using this great app! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome. Simplifies so many usecases"
What do you like best about Datatables?

After processing and summarizing large amounts of data, I often need to display, well, tables of data. Datatables does such a better job than just raw html tables in 90% of cases. It's especially great for getting a MVP of what you want to display and functionality before you even worry about tweaking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

Well, it's a lot better than raw html tables, but sometimes I do have to do some work to get the actual tweaks to work exactly as I need to. I think this is definitely an aspect of how many features that datatables has though. It can be tweaked in so many ways, that you have to specify exactly how you want it and that takes some lines of code to do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Data Tables for strategic reports"
What do you like best about Datatables?

I am using data tables to view the strategical data reports of algorithmic trading. Their responsiveness is awesome and they take none or very less time to render and to show the data. We can also apply filters and search any column based on the value provided in the search textfield. Its UI and design is awesome we can make any row clickable. It can be implemented in few lines of codes and it is available for many supportive frontend languages and frameworks like html, bootstrap and angular data tables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Datatables?

It requires little bit of programming languages knowledge to render the data dynamically and to integrate this in the frontend. For large images as column to display the performance is affecting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
