I am a certified MCSD .NET developer using both ASP.NET 4 and web2py
on my current job in a very large company.

I consider .NET to be best for 'legacy' .NET designs, and web2py best
for green field designs. .NET is fundamentally flawed for web work
because it depends on old style compiled dlls. .NET apps are difficult
to install on just any windows machine due
to both security and licensing issues.  So our .NET projects often
lose time
due to lack of access to a machine that is setup for development of
the particular
app.  With web2py, I can move my app to any machine quickly to
continue development.
In particular, I can install the development environment on the
client's machine
and let the client tweak the source code. .NET cannot be put on the
client's machine
in a lot of cases because the client cannot pay for a VS 2010 license.
Bugs are easy to spot in web2py because python is a fraction of the
lines of code
to scan. Finally, .NET is vendor-designed, not academically designed.
If want proper
design for your web app, you pretty much have to use web2py.
Most of ASP.NET is being replaced by jquery / jquery-ui these days
anyway even in
.NET web apps.  So there is little value in ASP.NET anymore.
