Know your gear
In this book, Esposito challenges readers to think beyond the "easy way to AJAX", which involves adding AJAX capabilities to a non-AJAX system designed in the old model of web development. Instead, he proposes an alternate, if more difficult, paradigm involving patterns and complexities - and culminating in a new, pure-AJAX architecture. You'll learn why far better solutions result from the second, more radical approach - and you'll get practical guidance on how to implement this architecture for Rich Internet Applications (RIAs).

It is very easy and straightforward to implement, but they need to fix the references that are not .Net built.
Valuable Features
* Stability
* Easy to use
* A lot of resources available on the internet
* Full support from the vendor
Improvements to My Organization
Our main product is built using ASP.Net. So, basically, ASP.Net is helping us formulate the future of our company.
Room for Improvement
Improving the project ready templates will add a great amount of value. They also need to find a way to fix the references that are not .Net built neither in assemblies nor available in NuGet packages.
Use of Solution
I've used it for more than 11 years.
Deployment Issues
In older versions there were issues, however, most of these issues have been fixed in the newer versions.
Stability Issues
Not really.
Scalability Issues
There were issues in the older versions, but usually scalability is an architectural issue, not an implementation one.
Customer Service and Technical Support
Customer Service: It's excellent.
Technical Support: It's excellent.
Previous Solutions
I worked on Java and PHP, and switched because of the features mentioned above.
Initial Setup
It is very easy and straightforward.
Implementation Team
We did it in-house.

Works like a perfect solution for each possible project
What is our primary use case?
I have been using ASP.NET and Microsoft technologies for more than five years. I have never been this much addicted to a language like I am right now with C#. We have been using ASP.NET framework from mobile development to web development. It just works like a perfect solution to each possible project I've come across in life up till now.
How has it helped my organization?
There was a gap between developing mobile application some years ago but since Xamarin is in the family of Microsoft, which is a pretty cool cross-platform technology, there is nothing you can't do with Xamarin in the mobile world. It was useful for our organization to reach out for the mobile projects as well.
Most of the important things that would be good in the next release could be support in tooling and design of cross-platform app development.
What is most valuable?
Below are the coolest features of ASP.NET which I found valuable:
* Cross-platform and container support
* High performance
* Asynchronous programming via async/await
* Unified MVC and Web API frameworks
* Multiple environment and development mode
* Dependency Injection
* WebSockets and SignalR
* Cross-site request forgery protection
* Self-hosted web applications
* Action filters
* Globalization and localization
* Profiler
What needs improvement?
Although ASP.NET is a full package for any sort of development, whether be it in web or mobile, each part has been covered well enough but there is always room for improvement. I am pretty sure that Microsoft is working in the same direction to ease the pain of developers. I won't point out anything but I am going to enjoy the fact that it's pretty cool to solve something on our own rather than just complaining about something which we haven't tried. However, who said it's going to be easy, but nobody said it's impossible. The most important thing to improve in the next release would be support in tooling and high-level designer toolbox for cross-platform mobile app development.
For how long have I used the solution?
More than five years.
