ASP.NET features and specs

• Performance
  ASP.NET is known for its high performance and scalability. It compiles server-side code to DLL files, which is executed on the server side, thereby speeding up the application's response time.
• Security
  ASP.NET provides built-in security features like form authentication and Windows authentication, as well as protection against common threats such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and request forgery.
• Rich Toolbox
  Visual Studio, the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for ASP.NET, offers a rich toolbox with a plethora of controls, automatic deployment features, and other tools that significantly speed up development.
• Cross-Platform Support
  ASP.NET Core is a cross-platform framework, which means you can run your web applications on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
• Community and Support
  ASP.NET has a strong community and extensive documentation, making it easier to find solutions to problems and ensuring continuous improvement and support.

Possible disadvantages of ASP.NET

• Learning Curve
  The framework can be complex for beginners, especially those without experience in C# or the .NET ecosystem.
• Cost
  While ASP.NET Core is free and open-source, some advanced features and tools require a Visual Studio subscription, which can be expensive.
• Hosting
  Although ASP.NET Core has improved in terms of cross-platform hosting, traditional ASP.NET applications are primarily optimized for Windows servers, limiting hosting options.
• Resource Intensive
  ASP.NET applications can be more resource-intensive than applications built with some other frameworks, which can lead to higher infrastructure costs.
• Complexity
  The framework offers a lot of features and functionalities, which can sometimes make it overly complex and harder to manage for smaller projects.

Possible disadvantages of Microsoft Power BI

• Complex Licensing
  The licensing model can be confusing and expensive, especially for small businesses or individual users.
• Performance Issues with Large Data Sets
  Performance can be impacted when handling very large data sets, making it less suitable for extremely data-intensive applications.
• Limited Customization
  While offering many built-in features, deep customization options may require advanced knowledge of DAX (Data Analysis Expressions) and Power Query.
• Learning Curve
  Users new to business intelligence tools may find there is a significant learning curve to fully utilize all of Power BI's features.
• Dependency on Internet Connection
  Many features, especially those involving cloud services, require a stable internet connection, which may be a limitation for some users.
