ASP.NET Web Forms and MVC are very different from one another. Web Forms user Server Controls and is very much Event driven. MVC is a completely different paradigm and one that MS has embraced.

I am not advocating for one over the other I work with both technologies on a daily basis, but over the last several years my focus has been on MVC and today I actually spend most of my development time using it.

What are you finding difficult about working with MVC? I would guess it binding, or dropping a control on screen and a little configuration and presto you have data. While MVC does not give you this simplicity it is simple to work with.

You had to start somewhere with Web Form, right? Take that same approach to learning MVC. Find a good book, a class or even start at www.asp.net.

If you are using a GridView because you couldn't possible emulate that functionality without it then you're probably better sticking with WebForms. If you want to move to MVC there is going to be a large learning curve, you're going to have to get to grips with a lot of concepts that WebForms hides\abstracts from you.

To answer your specific question there is nothing out of the box like gridview etc in MVC, you pretty much have to implement everything yourself, but there are obviously third-party libraries and extensions people have written that will help you get the functionality without the effort.
