Ranked in these QuestionsQuestion Ranking
Pros
Pro No need to find and install external libraries
Beego is a "batteries included" web framework, which means that a lot of features already come out of the box. This way you don't have to spend time and find third-party libraries to integrate to the framework for most of the tasks you need to complete.
Pro Built-in tool which watches for changes
Beego has a built-in tool which watches the code for changes. This tool (called bee tool) can be configured to run any task once the code changes. It can run tests or reload and rebuild the whole project.
Pro Built in ORM
Beego's eloquent ORM is a simple and fast Object-Relational Mapping which helps with organizing the application's database. Beego examples and documentation all use the beego ORM. No need to learn to use and integrate another ORMs API.
Pro Captcha
Pro Auto testing
Pro Fast and getting faster
Thanks to breakthroughs in ROSLYN compiler and the efforts of the .NET COre developer team, code written in C# can reach speeds just a step behind C++.
Pro Multi platform
Can run on Windows, Linux and Mac (also Visual Studio Code editor).
Pro JSON optimization
In .NET Core 2.1 and 3.0, new APIs are added that make it possible to write JSON APIs that require less memory, using Span<T> and UTF8 strings, and improve throughput of applications like Kestrel, ASP.NET Core web server. See also Utf8JsonReader.

Con Non-idiomatic code
Con Builds may fail silently
Sometimes even though a build has failed, the pages will still render. Apparently it caches a previous build when the current one has a problem. This can be a frustrating though because it leaves you wondering why the page you are working on stopped working out of the blue.
