I'm currently working with Ant and it's designed more for enterprise applications. It has a huge component library and great documentation, even though some of it has to be translated from Chinese. The components really cover a lot of use cases. There are some great chart libraries as well.

Material is mostly optimized for mobile applications and interactions. It requires a lot more space which starts to fall apart with the needs of a more complex application.

When you say it’s designed for enterprise applications, what does that mean? How would that be different then non-enterprise applications?
By enterprise I mean something that's more of a SaaS application vs more of a website.

Material requires more space than something like a Salesforce, for example will allow.

It's one of the reasons Google hasn't implemented material design with Gmail. Too much going on in one space for it to work.
