At some point in time along your journey, you will inevitably out grow Microsoft Bot Framework depending on your use case is my experience. Microsoft will at this time shift you to their partner ecosystem to pair you up with a 3rd party provider. This is all fine because this is the way Microsoft operates with certain solutions where custom solutions outweigh the natural product use case. The only thing I wish was that you did not have to shift to a 3rd party platform to learn a new skin for development just to realistically at the end of the day user backend Microsoft services.

Bot Framework is not the "easier tool" to use when you're creating Bots, but if you combine it with Bot Framework Composer, then it becomes a really really useful tool. That's the most I like because the GUI of Composer actually helps a lot. Also if you want to develop your services based on Bot Framework, there is DirectLine which helps you also! and it includes a webchat that you can adapt pretty easy. Finally the NLP from Luis is really really easy to use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Three things I don't like. One is that the Bot can become really really heavy so if you use for example DirectLine, it can take tons of time to answer a request... The second one is that it requires tons of jobs related to accomplishing complex things like a Transcript service, or stuff like that... and the third one is that the documentation for example for DirectLine is really hard to understand since there are no examples on how the return from the Bot works.
