Telerik OpenAccess

Has anyone used this ORM?

Telerik OpenAccess

Critiques/Praise? I work in an office that is heavily invested in other telerik venues and I would like to know more about their newest product and whether or not it should be avoided.

I'm testing it, the free Express version.

Pros

  • Performance (caching, lazy load etc. out of the box)
  • Easy integration
  • Great VS.NET integration, wizards
  • Cool community

Cons

  • Missing real distributed architecture support and patterns
  • Wizards hide configuration files and sometimes you must fix thing with hand
  • SQL CE support still missing

Chris is right, but Entity Framework works like beta, and OA has LINQ support too.

Personally, I think .net's Linq and it's entity framework are the best since sliced bread. I also use telerik a lot and look into everything that they make but ORM doesn't compare to M$ .NET Linq.
