ASP.NET makes deploying and publishing of Web APIs a breeze
Overall Satisfaction with ASP.NET
Since I work in quite large organization, there are many different apartments that use it for their specific needs. With regards to my own department, I mainly use ASP.NET to build RESTful Web APIs which serve to facilitate the integration among the different systems we use. Many of these systems don't expose such APIs and with ASP.NET it is relatively easy to build a web service that will solve these kind of issues and eventually lead to increase in productivity as well as decrease in effort spent by technicians.
Pros
- Utilizes .NET framework and familiar languages such as C# which makes it very easy to learn.
- Native support for MVC via ootb templates.
- Web API 2 allows very easy creation of RESTful Web Services.
Cons
- It can get pricey in order to use the full feature set of VS enterprise (free community edition available).
- Potentially harder implementation of web applications when not using the native MS technologies such as IIS.
- Easy to build Web APIs contributed to a significant amount of effort saving by facilitating system integration.
- Integration with Team Foundation and GitHub makes it very easy to collaborate with other colleagues.
