What Our Customers Say

Real feedback from developers who rely on Syncfusion every day.

"Good documentation helps you with everything you need to know. What I like the most is that it takes you from configuration to usage. I have mainly used grid and toolbar options along with dashboard."

G2 Review

"We’ve been using Syncfusion Essential Studio for over 4 years, and it’s been a game-changer for our team. The components are incredibly versatile and cover almost every use case we’ve needed, from basic UI elements to complex data grids and charts. The ease of integration with our existing projects saved us countless hours during implementation. The documentation is straightforward, and even if we get stuck, their customer support team is super responsive—whether through live chat or tickets. We’ve raised nearly 50 tickets so far, and every single one was resolved quickly with clear solutions. The frequent updates with new features and improvements keep the library fresh and aligned with modern needs. It’s rare to find a tool that’s both powerful and easy to use, but Syncfusion nails it."

G2 Review

"Using the Syncfusion suite means I can spend less time building e.g. "yet another grid/list view" for some admin operation, and more time on the exciting parts of the product I'm building. Generally the controls are easy to use and implement quickly, with ability to customise for specific use cases. I often find myself reading community posts and finding the answers to whatever questions I have, particularly when it's customising something. I am using this most days now. I had one difficulty with the PDF generator and reached out to the support team, they worked hard to understand my specific implementation (hosting environment) and they were able to un-stick me. Amazing!"
