I’ve been with Telerik since it launched. Progress feels like it’s all about “nickel & diming you to death,” and it’s clearly very different from what Telerik used to be. The Telerik support team goes above and beyond, and they’re much better than Syncfusion. I’ve recommended Telerik at every company I have been at (or kendo). The components are complete and well tested, and are WCAG compliant. But licensing was always an issue : stuff wont work, wont deploy, so any sort of upgrade was hell. Your product does not include AI / Intelligence as advertised, that an extra $2000, so a dissapointment. Its like buying a car only to fine the 4 wheels are optional extras. In general the Performance is awesome, the intergration is good and the UX are just perfect Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike Progress and what feels like their asset-sweating approach. They say the product has AI, but it doesn’t—AI is a separate purchase, which comes across as paying again for something you thought you’d already bought. If they’re this upfront about it, it makes me wonder what else is going on in the areas you can’t see? Trust is becoming an issue. With the AJAX product it is getting a little over complicated(like it can do everything) but at the cost of one feature breaking another - thank god for chatGPT. The other huge issue is the Cost of Ownership. If you have 15 developers, and any one of them may touch a telerik bit of code - you want all 15 licensed even if they never touch the UI. A floating license would be an easier sell. Then its up to the senior/lead developer to do all the support calls. This makes the move to kendoui cheaper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lot of web controls that are easy to implement, to enhance UIX, We love the way you can bind and use data using datasources, customization it's also very extensive, forums and online documentation are very helpful, the dojo tool its awesome. we use them in web applications like ASP.net, Java and Angular Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

even tho, the customization it's very poweful, sometimes one can get lost in the "Theme builder app". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When it works, it really works. OOP is easy to implement, and the documentation feels intuitive to use—at least when it isn’t missing code. I especially like being able to keep both the code and the Razor file together in one place. Also, the under-the-hood shared-memory approach for passing @VarItem to child components is a real boon when I don’t need to micromanage the resource. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I need a component to do specific things, then things can get tricky on how I need more minute parts of the component or having to make a JSInterop script implementation entirely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quick feedback from support and good code demos. It provides good value for the price, especially considering the development time saved and the range of components included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

From time to time you can find some bugs in their component, but if you report them to support, they fix them quite quick or they give you a solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are so many controls you can use. It saves really a lot of time to develop with those controls. If you have some problems using them, you can create a support ticket and within 24h you get an answer! maybe not the solution, but they answer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing is a bit high for if you only need some of the 100+ controls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having used both the WinForms and Blazor UI packages for a few years now, the great thing about that (plus all of the additional packages that I have access to) is the ease of implementation and the support/documentation (which is extensive to say the least). Pretty much everything has a mini-demo which makes it easy to utilise that particular component. Due to the subscription I'm on, the customer support for tickets is usually 24 hours - I've had to contact them a few times over the years when I was querying rather obscure issues and the team are more than happy to generate projects to try and replicate the problem or will suggest code snippets for me to try (which usually fixes the issue). Overall, very happy with everything they offer and they show no sign of slowing down with updates etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There have only been 1 or 2 instances where what I have been trying to achieve has not been possible (due to how a particular component has been built, but usually they will take what I am asking for into consideratioon for a future build), but apart from that I can't think of anything negative to say about what they offer.

The resource allocation view across live projects is something our ops lead checks every single morning now without being asked. Seeing who is overloaded and who has spare capacity in real time means we stopped having the uncomfortable conversation about why something slipped after it already slipped. That visibility alone changed how our team leads make daily decisions and the difference in how planned our weeks feel compared to before has been consistently commented on in our retrospectives.

Setting up project templates for the first time takes longer than expected and the options can feel overwhelming without proper guidance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Progress Telerik for its comprehensive suite of well-developed UI controls, which allows us to concentrate on our business logic rather than developing our own input controls. The online documentation is very good and makes it easy to understand the features of their control suite, complete with example guides that significantly shorten the implementation time for us. Additionally, I find their customer support to be very helpful, as they always find a way to solve our problems in a short time period. I also appreciate that Telerik provides a much broader suite of controls compared to other tools and is updated more frequently. The initial setup was very easy, which further adds to its ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been disappointed a few times regarding features on the roadmap being pushed backwards several times. Features that we have been waiting for. So we would like more predictability and timeframe on features and on issues with existing functionality. Additionally, we had some troubles when they first introduced the license key in the application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using Telerik UI for Blazor in various client projects for several years now and am overall very satisfied.

I am particularly impressed by the wide selection of high-quality controls: they are not only visually appealing but also very functionally sophisticated and can be easily integrated into existing projects. Another big plus is the extensive documentation. It offers many practical examples that noticeably facilitate both getting started and daily work with the components.

The support from Progress Telerik also deserves praise. For all previous concerns, I have received quick, friendly, and dedicated help. You can tell that the team is genuinely interested in actively supporting users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like less is the new type of licensing – even though I can understand that these changes were necessary.

Additionally, it would be desirable if the Balzor Data Grid could directly edit the data classes instead of always creating a copy.

But there are workarounds for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The component library depth is genuinely hard to match from anything else we evaluated before committing to Telerik. Grids charts forms and data visualisation components that would have taken our frontend team weeks to build and test from scratch are available production ready and customisable enough that they fit our design system without looking like off the shelf parts. The consistency across components has also meant that our UI behaves predictably across different parts of the application which was a constant source of small but accumulating quality issues before we standardised on Telerik.

The learning curve on some of the more complex components is steeper than the documentation prepares junior developers for and getting them productive independently takes longer than expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
