JQgrid vs Kendo grid

Can anyone tell me the main differences between Kendo UI Grid and JQgrid?

From my personal point of view, the advantage of KendoUI over jqGrid + jQueryUI is that in the Kendo UI you have most (all?) Of the controls you need from one source, so it's actually pretty easy to integrate them, and they all are look the same.

The controls from jQueryUI are pretty well integrated, but then you have to go to jqGrid for grid, jXYZ for ... and not all of them support jQuery UI themes, so they don't look the same. You end up with a website / app that doesn't look uniform.



Of course these are my two cents and I agree that both are great grids.

Both have a comparable feature set: the Kendo UI grid seems a little more polished overall in the demos, whereas jqGrid has an extensive feature set (you could probably put together a feature matrix if you like, but just compare the demos, there are many more demos for jqGrid nets).

Kendo's user interface is not free, but includes a set of user interface controls including a grid. On the other hand, jqGrid fits nicely with the jQuery UI and is free.



I also see that there are ASP.NET MVC and JSP code samples for Kendo UI grid, whereas jqGrid includes ASP.NET MVC, ASP.NET and PHP server side. But keep in mind, since both are JavaScript controls, that you should use whatever backend you prefer. These controls can simply make it easier to work outside the gate.

I would use your choice on other controls that you intend to use in your application. If you plan on using other Kendo UI controls, you can also go and use a grid. Overall, the Kendo UI controls the demos very well, so they might well be worth the price. But I've never used them ...
