ajax control toolkit vs2013,Microsoft Ajax Control Toolkit vs. jQuery

we are currently developing a couple of custom asp.net server controls. Now we'd like to add some Ajax support to some of them. Now basically there would be two options

Microsoft Ajax & Microsoft Ajax Control Toolkit

jQuery

I worked already with the Control Toolkit, writing a complete Extender and it was quite intuitive, once you understand the story behind. But I also like the simplicity of jQuery.

So I'd like to hear some of you what you would like to go for (advantages/disadvantages of each of them), considering also that we're mainly dealing with Microsoft technologies. Would you go more for the toolkit or jQuery,...or both?

//Edit:

I just made some tests and I have to admit that at the moment I find the Toolkit better due to the integration. My purpose is mainly for using it on the server controls, so with the toolkit I have corresponding classes on the server-side where I can do something like

CalendarExtender toolkitCalendarExtender = new CalendarExtender();

toolkitCalendarExtender.TargetControlID....

...

this.Controls.Add(toolkitCalendarExtender);

This is really nice because in this way I don't have to deal with rendering predefined JavaScript which I construct somehow as string inside my custom server control. With jQuery I would have to do so (except for the toolkit Nicolas mentioned, but the support there is too weak for using it in a professional environment)

Thanks a lot.
