Come on folks. Your lack of dedication to this product is disappointing. Who will buy your product if your simplest control, the Button, doesn't work? Look, I think I see what is wrong here. Once upon a time, when this product was starting, there was a realization that this product should support CSS, and that controls would be responsive. So of course, the architects initially provided for not only background colors, but a hover property, and a final key click color. But along the way, others put forth the need for Skins and Themes,so those got added in. But unfortunately in doing so, you broke your own code. This is why today, there is not one demo with even one example of these properties being used because the CssClass properties for Hover, and PressCssClick apparently do absolutely nothing. Now given that this Button's properties don't work and it is Telerik's simplest control, this likewise suggest that this failure may likely flow throughout Telerik's entire product line. What's wrong here? A lack of quality control, and a missing dedication to detail and excellence. So do I or others buy such a compromise? Not if they have any professional self-respect.
This is what I have done in the last few days while fuming at your incompetence. I created my own Button control, because I can't find any manufacturer that has produced anything at the level I require. The control I have produced is a 4 phase CSS button, supporting images on either side: The button supports CSS classes, such as Hovering while yours does not. That is the button will display an image on either side, and the text of any size can be aligned either right or left whereas your control the text is stuck dead in the middle. The button takes a beginning color, but then in a hovering state the background goes to Yellow with Black text or any other colors you decide. Click on the button and like a stoplight the color changes from Yellow and Black to Green and White. And then after a slight delay, the button then changes finally to Red with White text indicating completion. So here I now have a 4 phase dynamic CSS button: A color of your choice moving like a stoplight then through Yellow and Black, to Green and White, and finally resting on Red and White. This Telerik button you seem to be content with has just a couple of images which is nice but with little or no CSS integration, but beyond that it is essentially just another stagnant do-nothing ASP.Net button.
The reason I have been considering Telerik is because I need for my site my that I am creating the finest in everything. I need the finest buttons, and also I have a need for a CardView supportive grid. To my knowledge Telerik has at least in the past been about the only control manufacturer which did have a CardView supportive grid. But now when I look at your newest product today, I am disappointed again: All the CardView demos you did have with the product have been taken down. Your site no longer advertises supporting CardView in its Grid whatsoever. Why? Is this another incident like with the Button, that features which one time worked no longer are supported; That the product itself lacks a dedication to excellence and continuing support? I hope not. But if Telerik’s CarView is no longer real, I will have lost the reasoning for even considering to buy your product. Who’s fault is that slackers.
Don’t give me an excuse or tell me I should have presented this as a ticket. You site advertises that user have the option to open either by opening a ticket or a posting on your Forum. Up to now, your product has only wasted my time and you are not impressing me. All right slackers, I throw this challenge down before you. Are you going to support your product, or like cowards lacking dedication simply delete my question and return to mediocrity? After all, who really cares today about excellence anyway? Telerik maybe? Who knows.
Sincerely,
Pastor Burt
