Perhaps a WebForms app written for in-house use might be OK, but not for world wide production use

It seems like WebForms with it's ViewState worked tightly with IIS server in order to post data back, and IIS server would have to keep track of every session out there.

And then the single use of the Form element

I dumped WebForms and went MVC...Then I dumped MVC and went .Net Core MVC...Last, I took the Angular jump

Advantages of server-side View State

The main advantage is that if a browser does not support a large encrypted file that is generated by the client-side View State then by the client-side View State we can handle it. As we know sometimes when we open an ASP web site in ASP.NET there will be some time corruption problem so it also minimizes the corruption problem. It also converts large client-side pages into a small client-side page because the View State data is stored at the server.

Disadvantages of Server-side View State

The main draw back is that the developer does not know how much space is taken by a View State on the server. If it takes a very large space there will be a problem. Another disadvantage is that server-side View State uses the server memory for the session object.
