    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 is most suited for someone who has a physical office, particularly a retail store which helps them to promote the business locally. I would suggest businessmen should use this tool for promoting their business in a more effective way. It is of least important if you are promoting your business digitally and don't have a physical location.

    Pros
    MESCIUS
    • 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.

    Cons
    MESCIUS
    • 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.

    • Offline location required for some certain locations
    • Needs to reduce updates as it is comes from most of the updates.
    • Maps needs to be accurate in small areas in order to find destination.

    Google Maps API is easy to use. Map visibility is good and accurate. Easy to search routes, distance, and travel time based on actual address to address locations or when quoting a zip code to zip code rate. The user interface is friendly and make usage easy and quick to obtain all the information I need to properly quote and plan my driver's routes.

    It does everything I need it to do and hasn't let me down yet. It has been a lifesaver for my roofing accounts. Most of my clients for the roofing belong to an Amish community with no computers and so forth. So being able to search the maps and look at the rooftops is imperative for those campaigns.

    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.

    Google MAP API is one of the prominent ones as compared to others. In the selection process also we are [complete] with the API provider by Google MAP as it is quite stable.No doubt it is one of the best methods to implement or integrate as compared to any others which is available in the competition.

    Return on Investment
    MESCIUS
    • 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.
