Best for
  • Teams already running AutoGen in production
  • Researchers studying multi-agent systems
  • Developers prototyping agent collaboration
  • Cost-conscious teams on open models
  • ML teams that fine-tune
  • Startups scaling inference volume
Pros
  • Pioneered accessible multi-agent conversation patterns
  • Free and open source
  • Backed by Microsoft Research with strong documentation
  • 0.4 architecture is asynchronous and more observable
  • Works with many model providers
  • Large catalog of open and open-weight models
  • Competitive per-token pricing

  • Dedicated GPU clusters for scale
  • OpenAI-compatible API
Cons
  • In maintenance mode as of 2026, no new feature focus
  • Microsoft steers new projects to the Agent Framework
  • Multiple version lines (0.2 vs 0.4/0.7) cause confusion
  • Multi-agent loops can be hard to control and cost-predict
  • Less enterprise tooling than the successor framework
  • Broad pricing surface across several product lines
  • You own quality and safety evaluation of open models
  • Dedicated clusters require commitment and planning
  • Less turnkey than closed frontier APIs
  • Model catalog and prices change over time
