It depends on your requirements, or what you want achieve.

The pros of custom paging are mentioned at msdn.

The deciding factor is the performance of the app. If your data set is small, you can get away with auto paging... just keep in mind that it retrieves the entire dataset on every bind.

If your data is not big you can go ahead with datagrid paging as essentially it gets all the data of your table or query to client side and page it.

But if you are having huge data you can see this article for multiple options available
