It seems that despite our best efforts to educate customers, we haven't done a great job at letting everyone know that: When you buy a RadControls for ASP.NET license, with subscription or not, you get a matching license for "Prometheus" controls and you can download the developer build of the controls from your Client.net account. It is up to you to decide whether you want to use the classic controls or the "Prometheus" ones. Everyone who buys an ASP.NET Subscription or a subscription license for the all-inclusive SKU (which includes all UI components for web and desktop development plus Telerik Reporting) gets "Prometheus" as a...

It's a fact (as of Monday to be precise) - the Telerik blogs are finally running on Sitefinity and we've got a new design for the blogs. It's actually more than just a design - we've done a lot to fix some of the layout weaknesses of the previous version of blogs.telerik.com and to improve the overall user experience. Now that the whole blogging experience is so much better, you should expect a lot of fresh and interesting content for new things at Telerik as well as general tips and tricks for the tools and technologies we use daily. Happy...

Customers often ask if they need to purchase licenses just for the UI developers in their team or for all the devs on the team.

The question is so common that it was high time I blogged about it and gave our policy some extra publicity. The answer is always the same: “No, you just need to get a license for the devs who will be working on the UI....

Hopefully all of you reading my blog have spent the holiday with your families and not in front of the PC and my best wishes are coming at the right time:)I wish you all (customers, non-customers, colleagues, partners, friends, competition) a great Year 2008. I hope that it will bring all of us joy, happiness and, above all, good health!Wish you all a wonderful New Year's Eve celebration and a very successful Year...

With the pending update of RadControls "Prometheus" for ASP.NET quite a few customers have asked us whether it is safe to use Prometheus controls in production when the suite has a Beta tag. Before I answer the question, I’d like to add some background on what RadControls "Prometheus" is. RadControls “Prometheus” is the next generation of our ASP.NET product line. It’s built on top of ASP.NET AJAX and provides the richest, most powerful and fastest toolset for delivering rich ASP.NET applications. It has all of the benefits of the existing suite plus incredible performance improvements, great integration between all elements of the UI package and adds some amazing new components. This begs the question - if...
