DevExpress Library has multiple methods to design any forms and their fields or controls quickly. We don't require any controls design placement because he auto-arranges if not assigned property. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DevExpress? Devexpress has a dx.all.js file, around 4 MB in size, and it contains all methods and properties. So if we require any light form and want to use the DevExpress method, then our actual page size with this JS is too heavy to load, and till now, we didn't get any way to reduce this js file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DevExpress solving and how is that benefiting you? With the help of DevExpress, I can easily design any form and grid in less number of times so Azile methodology we can easily follow with DevExpress and also it any support query they update quickly.

Good support and documentation. Pretty stable components that are easy to use with a compact syntax. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DevExpress? They use JavaScript behind-the-scenes of some Blazor components which makes other native Blazor components such as Radzen a better choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DevExpress solving and how is that benefiting you? Rapid development of business applications using grids, drop-down lists etc. Also used a component to manipulate pdf forms.

Chief Technology Officer Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/3/2021 "Devekspress XAF flexible platform for the rapid creation of business applications." 5/5 What do you like best about DevExpress? Very user-friendly UI Components, modern MVC architecture of the XAF, integration with the Visual Studio, and Designers customize the App with low-coding. The XAF API allowed us to implement additional business logic to develop our enterprise systems (EAM, MRP, ERP, HCM). We have been using XAF since the introduction of this product and are very happy with the high level of Documentation and Product Support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DevExpress? The XAF-Web Client was critical to us. Unfortunately, until 2020, the XAF-WebForm Client did not meet our requirements. But the good thing is that the XAF Architecture provides for the development of Add-ons. We developed the XAF-JS Client ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DevExpress solving and how is that benefiting you? We develop replicable enterprise systems (ERP, EAM, MRP, CHM, CPM) Using Devexpress XAF, we are very fast in prototyping applications and new modules. Our Systems turn out to be very user-friendly, with an excellent level of adaptation to the Customer. Users of our systems are pleased with the presence of flexible application settings.

Software Engineer Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 8/29/2021 "Quick turnaround time and very helpful team from DevExpress Support" 5/5 What do you like best about DevExpress? Ease of use of DevExpress product and most of their basic functionalities are described in their documentation. In the event that the descriptions are not clearly described, we usually write to DevExpress support team, and they usually provide replies within a day or two. The Support team members are also very experienced such that they are only not able to advise from a development point of view but also from the setup and infrastructure. They are also very helpful when it comes to resolving our issues, so long all the required details are provided to them to replicate the issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DevExpress? Lack of documentation - most of the time our queries are answered based on references to tickets submitted by others on Support. There is also a lack of clear examples that go along with the documentation, so when we have to explore a new feature/tool in DevExpress, it makes things quite difficult trying to determine the pros and cons of each alternative and figuring out which of those will apply to our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DevExpress solving and how is that benefiting you? In the past we used DevExpress for a desktop product. Recently we have to migrate that product to cloud, as such there was a need for us to explore Web Reporting. We realized that the out-of-the-box features were really easy to use, as most of the scenarios were taken care of for us. However the difficulties were basically in trying to figure out the limitations of things, as the documentations were lacking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CEO Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/20/2021 "Amazing development tools with the best support available at the market" 5/5 What do you like best about DevExpress? The DevExpress Support Team is simply amazing - even complex inquiries are answered within an business day! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DevExpress? There is nothing to dislike - never faced any downsides! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DevExpress solving and how is that benefiting you? We create an ERP Software which needs to be fully customizable by endusers and consultants. Using DevExpress Application Framework "XAF" was the right choice for us - as it is the most powerful framework out there. Describing all benefits would go beyond scope here, but with XAF - with defining your business classes you get: - Winforms, Blazor Application with one codebase - Lots of built-in Modules (Validation / Conditional Appearance, Reporting / BI Dashboards, and a lot more) - Security System out of the box - Customizable Layouts (even at runtime) - Fully extendable at runtime (create custom Members / customize the underlaying TypesInfo system, load additional Modules/Plugins) - so much more...

Vice President Development / Conversion Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/17/2021 "Great Product / Great Support" 4.5/5 What do you like best about DevExpress? With a small development team, DevExpress is essential to our success. DevExpress creates top-notch products that add advanced functionality to our products without building everything from scratch. They are constantly improving their products and adding new functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about DevExpress? As with any software, we often find things that break between major versions, especially related to web products. Sometimes this comes from misunderstanding the original documentation, or sometimes it's just a bug. Either way, DevExpress's support team is always there to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is DevExpress solving and how is that benefiting you? We are using many different DevExpress products, but the one we have used more than any other is the Data Grid. The Data Grid allows us to view / filter / edit / search data extremely efficiently.
