Amazon Corretto vs. ComponentOne

Amazon Corretto is the best platform for individuals, companies, or businesses to get started at no cost and easily develop and run Java applications in the same environment in the Cloud, on-premises, and/or on local PCs. Great support from AWS, solving all performance and security problems, and able to work on different platforms.

C1 is great for creating custom reports. We have client apps where we've created some fairly complicated reports such as invoices and real estate inspections. We also use the True DBGrid in many of our apps since it is so customizable. Its grouping and filtering features are very nice and can provide summary counts and totals at the bottom or right side of the grid that are very handy.

• It incorporates the newest JDK version's security patches.
• It's helpful when testing hybrid deployments locally.
• It provides a significant advantage in terms of overall performance.
• It is especially useful because it gives us free access to the open JDK on any platform.

• The True DBGrid control is nice for showing parent/child relationships and being able to drill down and show the child data. It also is nice for showing summary totals.
• The report engine is great for building custom reports for Win Forms or web apps. It can do everything that Crystal Reports can do.
• They have a good selection of controls that can do just about anything you can imagine.

• Amazon Corretto really has short documentation which has been the issue for us in the past resulting in the development issues
• This service is relatively unknown and less popular which results in the smaller community which means in case you get stuck somewhere it may be difficult for you to the find the resources.
• No other issues noted as of now by us

• Sometimes it is difficult to figure out where things are in the properties of controls since there are so many things you can drill down into.
• I find myself using Bing or Google a lot to look up how to do something. Some things are not very intuitive.
• Of course, I would always like the price to be cheaper. The high price has caused us to not keep current and have the latest version.

We have been in business since 1992, so we have used many different products over the years. The two other products we've primary used that are similar to ComponentOne, are Infragistics and Crystal Reports. Infragistics has a vast array of controls similar to ComponentOne. We use both to be honest and I'm not sure which one I would pick over the other. I guess that would depend on what you're trying to accomplish and if one had some control or capability that the other didn't. ComponentOne does have the reporting capabilities, where Infragistics does not.

• ComponentOne allows us to add additional features to our apps that wouldn't be found in apps written with just Visual Studio itself. That allows our clients to get more creative in their requirements, which in turn, means more work and billable hours for us!
• Our apps appear more professional when using ComponentOne which helps us get projects for new clients.
• ComponentOne also helps us to save clients some money since we are not having to develop things that it can do from scratch.
