Is there a Wizard control in Kentico?
I want to develop a register process using Kentico. The process is combined with four simple tables that customers have to filled out one by one. Therefore, using forms in wizard control is perfect match the design. But I'm not sure if Kentico provide such a control. If Kentico does not provide such a control or web part. What is the way that I can implement it in Kentico? Please give me some idea. Thank you.

Hello,

Regrettably, there is no wizard web part available in Kentico. However, you can create a custom multi-step bizform in this Knowledge Base article. You can also create a custom web part.

OK, I got your idea and read through that multi-step bizform and comes with a question. what's the benefit if I use multi-step bizform rather than a custom web part? If I just collect user input and save them into database in this scenario, is there any difference between the two ways?

Hello,

If you are more comfortable creating a custom web part, then there is no big advantage in using biz forms. I only suggested biz forms, because users prefer to do less coding, but in that case they limited by the functionality of the biz form of course. So, the bottom line is, if you prefer your own web part and a custom table, then use this approach.
