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.

Recommendations to others considering ASP.NET:

99% that it will suffice all your needs, and it has quite good performance with ability to tweak some parts of system. So your answer should be based on such questions are:

is there enough asp.net developers in my area (if you are going to run it department on your own)?

benefits from ms compared to other vendors?

compare costs of tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ASP.NET solving and how is that benefiting you?

Developing and running our site, which is currently main part of our business.

ASP.NET offers extended number of features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ASP.NET:

ASP.NET is one of the best platforms for creating web applications. You can definitely use if you need to create REST API for your product or just want to follow more traditional approach and just use it to serve HTML pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ASP.NET solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've used ASP.NET in many applications. It's complete framework. Security for crucial and common parts of project is there so you save time and avoid possible mistakes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ASP.NET?

With ASP.NET I can write my code-behind in C#. This is a strong-typed language, with whom I develop better. It has good performance as it is pre-compiled (better than script-only languages). With "vNext" version (previously know as ASP.NET v5, now known as ASP.NET Core v1.0) it will be open source and platform indipendent, wich means it will be possible to run an ASP.NET web app over a Linux Server, gathering even better performances (Linux Server are actually faster than Windows ones). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

As for long time it required a Windows Server (and Visual Studio aswell) which is expensive, Open Source world mostly used PHP. So most frameworks and CMS are for that programming language, while only few companies require it. Same thing regarding tutorials, helps and guides: as it is a "niche" product, you won't find over the net the help you need as easy as for other very used languages, which may slower your developing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ASP.NET:

As a part of .NET framework ecosystem, it will be shortly open source (and than free). Keep in mind that most free server only support PHP and still will for a long time, so if you are looking for ASP.NET as an alternative to PHP, it's not (yet) a good idea, while it may be in future. If, on the other hand, you are looking into ASP.NET as an alternative to a Java system, than it may be a great solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ASP.NET solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use ASP.NET when a customer need a completely custom solution for his web app, when he ask for a Windows Stack, or when it's more time-critical than other script-only solution (as PHP). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ASP.NET?

ASP.NET is a great, highly adopted platform so there are many developers out there that have the skills necessary to build and maintain an application. The fact that Microsoft is making .NET Core open source and runnable on Linux and Mac will only increase adoption. The free IDE tools that Microsoft provide, including Visual Studio, the numerous plugins available make it easy to develop web applications using ASP.NET. The ability to build applications using your language of choice is also very appealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

ASP.NET webforms will not be open sourced, so that will still be closed technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ASP.NET solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our organization uses ASP.NET as a rapid development tool to build applications quickly and easily with our existing skillset. Although we build using C#, the flexibility of using VB.NET is very helpful. With ASP.NET MVC, our applications take advantage of current software design patterns and are fast, scalable, and reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ASP.NET?

The learning curve - ASP.NET gives a lot of help with .NET intellisense, very easy to build sites, a lot of plugins available via nuget, also latest version of ASP.NET that i 've worked with - had a lot of boilerplates for development, basically it had very nice entity-framework orm, user authentications, view templates/layouts, and of course razor is very useful view engine, we used devexpress for out sites, it had a lot of beautifyl components, so we ended up making a lot of sites based on our custom template which had everything ASP.NET MVC 5 gives and moreover out custom libraries like reporting, charts, logging, component theming, ldap integration etc. And of course visual studio profiler Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ASP.NET?

The most big thing to dislike ASP.NET is that it runs only on windows machines, this is the most important disadvantage in my opinion, Also it takes much MORE time to start a project rather than in node.js for example. Working on visual studio and having a sql service running beside will slow down your computer very much, also the lack of simplicity of code rushing makes ASP.NET the past technology for me, also the codebase for a simple app so so large that you cannot just build it on your own without visual studio, Very complicated inside - but very simple in visual studio IDE, with the new version of ASP.NET MVC6 comes a lot of features, like linux support, simple config, totally rewritten engine etc. will see... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ASP.NET:

ASP.NET is best platform to start being software developer, it was pleasure to work with it.

Learning curve is very low, children should definitely start learning asp.net in schools,

For myself, i read a lot of books about ASP.NET , first one was Anrew Troelson - C#/ASP.NET

it was fun to read it and practise on computer, i had everything setup easily, the installer does great job, you just gonna start learning new things very fast. Also with our current technology trends, it's easy to build web-apps in asp.net, using web-api

Anyway young developers should definitely start from asp.net Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ASP.NET solving and how is that benefiting you?

We basically build websites for corporate sector, our company was certified windows reseller, and we also developed websites with devexpress, the main goal of company was to product high quality product for customers and long term support, ideally we build our products in a very large amount of time, to make all the tests, predictions, horizontal expansions, etc.

And in my opinion the long term support was the main reason our company choose ASP.NET - many platforms where just too hard to maintain Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
