Hi Arda,

You are probably talking about DevExpress, right?
If so, yes, their XtraGrid is fantastic.
I would recommend them.

Hi Arda,

It depends on what's important to you and what you are looking for -

User interface components?
- A whole set of components or just one type (a datagrid for example)

Communications components?

There are lots of different types of components. Even if we assume that you
are looking for user interface components then we still don't know what you
are really looking for.

Also, how much money are you looking to spend? Do you have a dedicated
budget, or are you just looking for something for not much money? Either is
fine, but you'll have to let us know how much you would like to spend.

In the mean time, might I suggest http://www.componentsource.com/if you
havent already been. Maybe you could find some components that you like the
look of and then ask around for peoples thoughts on the components you find?
The website should also give you an idea of what the most popular components
are in any given category

Hope that helps

Developer's Express is a super company with some of the best support around!
I also highly recommend them.

In addition, Infragistics has really good stuff. Check them out too. They
don't match DevEx's support (even with their top $$ subscription support),
but their prices are lower and their products have lots of nice features.

Infragistics' stuff is absolute crap. If you try to develop a solution
around it, you'll end up reimplementing it yourself.

Stay away from anything that says Dart too. You'll thank yourself later.

That's pretty harsh. I'm not sure which components you used (win, web or
com) or what problems you encountered but I would strongly disagree (and not
just because I work there). For the person whose posed the question I would
say download the demos from various companies and see which has the features
& functionality you need. In the case of infragistics, there are samples
that ship with the product as well as a couple of fully functional reference
applications (one for win and one for the web .net components) and the demo
versions are fully functional.

Both windows and web. The grid is completely out of control (especially the
web grid). I put a few rows in it, and suddenly my users download (and post
back) MEGS of viewstate? Not here.

The infragistics web grid is definitely very much slower than the microsoft
grid. Whether this is due to view state, i have no idea. But the difference
is very noticeable. The upside to them is that it does have a ton of
features not found in most other grids. But that comes at a price. All
depends on where your priorities lie.

Mine lie in performance and stability, not shiny-new-features. That's why I
pretty much stay away from 3rd-party components. I've never seen a vendor
that cared more about my priorities than having a long list of "features"
for the website.
