Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, F5, Apache and others in Application Infrastructure."The most valuable feature of Microsoft .NET Framework is debugging."
"The solution is easy to use."
"Firstly, I appreciate the decision to use Microsoft .NET Framework. I find it to be an excellent language, with a history rooted in providing an alternative to Java, albeit with initial challenges. It is gaining popularity and may be voted the most desirable programming language. What I particularly like about .NET is its language efficiency. While C# is the primary language, the platform also supports others, catering to those inclined towards functional programming. Although I started with Shell, I'm still grasping the concept of functional programming. Despite initial reservations about object-oriented programming, I acknowledge its advantages. .NET is a safer option, and despite criticisms, it has evolved over the years. One notable aspect is .NET's transition to an open platform in recent years, distancing itself from being exclusive to Microsoft engineers. I appreciate the versatility of .NET, enabling code production for a wide range of platforms, presenting a strong competition to Java. It allows targeting practically any physical platform, showcasing its flexibility. These qualities contribute to my positive view of .NET, totaling thirteen aspects that I find appealing."
"User-friendly and straightforward."
"It is a stable solution."
"The Windows Communication Foundation is the biggest advantage we get from the .NET Framework."
"The solution is not limited in storage, is customizable and simple to use."
"Initial setup is straightforward. All the components are readily available."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the central console, that allows you to see all of the activated and deactivated computers."
"It is of great concern to us that the solution is not very powerful on cross platform, at it impedes the ability to build and scale with it."
"One thing that could be improved is the tooling and IDE for .NET in non-Windows environments like Mac."
"I would want the product to be integrated with the different AI tools in the future since it is one of the areas where the product has certain shortcomings."
"The product could have a better framework for application development."
"The runtime environment for ASP.NET needs improvement to make it more universal."
"This solution should include Power BI so that we don't have to use any third-party tools."
"Microsoft has its own product called Blazor, but I don't think it's quite as powerful yet as React or Angular. That's an area for improvement."
"I would like to see more pre-built features in the MVC framework because as it is now, it's very open and you have to develop your own controls in order to use it."
"The stability of the solution needs improvement."
