If you are, can you let me know how you got on with it? Are you using the Asynchronous dataloading features of the control?

We are looking to purchase this set of tools for paging, filtering, and sorting data passed via CSLA SL. We want to get a feel for if it works with CSLA SL.

Cheers,
Gareth.

I can tell you that we are using it.  So far so good.  We are dabbling a bit with different UI approaches and I don't believe we have tried any of the built-in asynchronous stuff - yet.  Aside from that, all of the controls from Telerik seem to work great and we are loving how easy it is to implement a nice set of common features like docking, multiple pages and popup windows/dialogs.

I've had mixed success - their documentation is lousy, the comboBox control is horrendous, especially in a grid, but their support is quite good, if you can wait the 24 hour turnaround for a response.  They put a lot of effort into giving you samples or mockup projects. 

I still get issues though with EditState from a few of their controls when embedded in gridviews.

I have been using them for 1-2 months.  They have issues, but overall controls are good.  We have been working with them on EditState bugs for sometimes now, they supposedly fixed part of the issues, but we found one more that the4y are working on now.  As a workaround, we have to flag items that are edited in grid with IDisableEditableObject = true.
