What Our Customers Say

Real feedback from developers who rely on Syncfusion every day.

The controls are very easy to use and mostly work on the client side for better user experience. Controls handles large datasets seamlessly. Look and feel of controls is great.

G2 Review

I am thoroughly impressed with this application. The customer support team is not only highly responsive but also excels in providing practical examples and samples. I wholeheartedly recommend this application to others. I've particularly utilized the Schedule Module with self-modifications and finding it exceptionally user-friendly.

G2 Review

These fully functional controls save a lot of time. And I'm not talking only about the complex controls such as the Schedule, but even for buttons and data forms. The documentation is good and the few times we needed support it was swift and resolved everything quickly.
