JSON.NET JsonConvert vs .NET JavaScriptSerializer [closed]

I think this is exactly the kind of comparison you are looking for.

It basically says that JSON.Net is better because it among other things…

  • Is faster
  • Has LINQ to JSON support
  • Can convert JSON to and from XML

In my opinion the only positive, (and it is a small positive), I can see for the built-in serializer is that there is no extra external dependency to manage.

Edit: Codeplex is shutting down one day so you can find the comparison here as well, just search for “Feature comparison” on the page.
