PrimeNG is a comprehensive component suite that includes over 70+ UI components and is popular among organizations such as eBay, FOX etc., However with the available number of components, it still does not allow developers to customize. Similar to material, Prime NG provides you with templates and code below them.

Inconsistent API — the features present in one component, but completely absent on another.

Not beginner-friendly. As most customizations do not come with the package. Well, versed experts can include basic elements inside the source code.

No proper explanation/documentation about the available components.

Things to consider before you choose Angular Material vs PrimeNG !

Whenever we use a similar package, we indirectly use angular material as a base. The same goes for all software built on Angular material.

For custom software development at Centizen we researched about Angular Material vs PrimeNG over a notable period of time. However even after almost a year and a half, Angular Material manages to hover PrimeNG. The main reason would be that Angular lets people customize with basic elements added with the clear information of what it does and what can be expected whereas PrimeNG is abstract about it which makes it difficult for beginners.
