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.Incentivized
Microsoft Visual Studio Code is highly recommended for the development of systems and / or complex applications entrusted to work teams under a specific methodology, and its use is also recommended for the maintenance of previously developed applications.It is not recommended as a learning environment for developers with little experience as the learning curve would be too high Incentivized
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.Incentivized
Very accessible -- it's compatible with all platforms and environments, free to install, and fast to openStrong native support for many languages, and very strong extensibility to provide advanced language featuresGit integration is top-notch, often displaying a better history, diff, and merge interface that is otherwise available in version control systemsIncentivized
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.Incentivized
Lack of button bar like ones found in Visual Studio.Lack of integrated help that could link to YouTube, Channel 9, or other Microsoft videos on how to learn about features.Integration with Team Foundation Server.Would like to see it having some sort of integration into a Web API testing harness.Incentivized
Solid tool that provides everything you need to develop most types of applications. The only reason not a 10 is that if you are doing large distributed teams on Enterprise level, Professional does provide more tools to support that and would be worth the cost.Incentivized
This is a tool for programmers and it works like many others. If you are in the development world already then you will be sailing in no time with Microsoft Visual Studio Code. It is also great for new developers and it is very easy to use and you can get all the tools you need in one place as you begin to learn.Incentivized
Active development means filing a bug on the GitHub repo typically gets you a response within 4 days. There are plugins for almost everything you need, whether it be linting, Vim emulation, even language servers (which I use to code in Scala). There is well-maintained official documentation. The only thing missing is forums. The closest thing is GitHub issues, which typically has the answers but is hard to sift through -- there are currently 78k issues.Incentivized
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.Incentivized
[Microsoft] Visual Studio Code beats the competition due to its extensibility. Their robust extensions architecture combined with the plethora of mostly free extensions written by the community can't be beaten. The fact that this tool itself is provided by a world-recognized company, Microsoft, free of charge is phenomenal. The goodwill garnered by them is immeasurable. Other tools I've used were missing features or were just too rigid, too complicated, or too unsophisticated for my liking. The fact that VS Code is easy to mold to my will with the right extensions seals the deal.Incentivized
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.Incentivized
Positive impact on minimizing time wasted by employees with software installation and setupPositive impact on reducing spend on software licensingPositive impact on minimizing time used to manage different applications for different purposes - this performs all of the functions we need in basic codingIncentivized
