Windows Forms Visual Components - need advice

[excelleinc.com]

Hello,

I need to purchase visual components package for new custom software that
I'm making.

I have looked into DevExpress tools and also Infragistics.


I could use an advice on which one to use and if I should look into some
other solutions.


Thank You,

Vlado

I would first look at the beta 2 VS 2005 in that are again a lot of new
controls.

Just my idea

Generally, of course you should look at what is available in the
standard framework before considering purchasing third party stuff. But
I know the DevExpress stuff very well, and I can tell you that most of
the components they have are that much better than the standard gui
components in the framework, it's really not a comparison. I'll
recommend everything they make, because their quality and support is
absolutely fantastic.

Disclaimer: I'm a member of DevExpress's voluntary support team, the
DX-Squad, so some may think I'm biased. But then again, I got there by
being an extremely satisfied customer in the first place and I don't get
anything from them for posting this reply.
