We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pricing and Cost Advice
"The pricing is a bit high and I believe that it can be brought down."
"ASP.NET is an open-source solution."
"I think ASP.NET, in deployment, is something that's quite costly when you're on a cloud provider such as Azure, and you have to pay the server cost. On average, it can cost approximately $1,000 per month to host a good site with a few databases."
"The solution requires a licensing fee but is worth the investment."
"The solution is open source and free."
"ASP.NET is open-source and free of charge."
"This is a free solution. However, we have some server licensing costs which are not directly a cost of using the solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, with one being cost efficient and 10 being the most expensive, I would rate ASP.NET's pricing at six.
There used to be IAF, which you could spin on a Windows machine. However, that sort of setup does not exist for Linux machines. Because customers still prefer a Windows underlying infrastructure, it can get expensive."
ASP.NET is a free web framework for building web sites, apps and services with HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
Genero Enterprise comprises Studio â a visual programming development framework that models apps from three basic diagrams that describe: the application workflow, the database relationships and the user interface. The application is generated from these diagrams using customizable code templates that can be adapted to suit your own corporate needs and standards. Custom business rules can be inserted using Code Editor â a language sensitive editor that corrects syntax in real-time. Develop in teams, locally and remotely via the Subversion source code control system.
Visual Studio.NET is the umbrella that represents the key pieces of the .NET platform delivered from Microsoft, including the .NET Framework, the recently announced .NET Core, and a shared common layer of packages, compilers and runtime.
