Does anyone have experience with both Google ChartTools and KendoUI's DataViz? I'm really curious to know how they compare.

Just wondering why you would pick this over say jquery-ui or a combination of free and open source solutions?

Looks cool, some of the components did look a lot nicer than jQuery UI's.

I've never heard of your product before and your homepage tells me nothing about what exactly it is.

My best guess is that it's some sort of web development tool that I can pay to get support for.

I found this to be quite helpful:

Kendo UI Web is a framework for modern HTML UI. Engineered with the latest HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript standards, it delivers everything needed for client-side, jQuery-powered development in one integrated, compact package.

As someone who does JavaScript and HTML5 UIs for a living, I'm interested to understand more about the market of customers who pay for UI components or libraries.

Can anyone comment point me to an successful MVP in this area or tell me about customers who buy this stuff?

It's made by Telerik, maker of .NET libraries and tools, and some companies go "all in" on their stuff.

How does the dual licensing work exactly?

Can't we just use the GPLv3 version on any commercial (or personal) website? As long as I'm not redistributing commercial software with Kendo included, I am within the rights GPL grants me, right?
