Likelihood to Recommend
For industries like construction and solar energy projects that involve multiple stages, dependencies, and milestones, DHTMLX Gantt is highly effective. Its ability to visually represent complex project timelines helps plan, track, and adjust schedules as projects evolve.
Currently, it lacks a feature to provide weightage for activities. As of today, this needs to be handled manually. It would be great if DHTMLX handles different weights for activities.

We were looking for a JS Gantt chart plugin to reduce the time to market of our product and found DHTMLX to be the one closest to our requirements. They have good documentation with sample code that makes it easy to implement for our developers. The component APIs are stable and performant which makes them good to use in the long term.
Pros
Gantt charts
Developer documentation
Clean UI
Stable API
Cons
Give more discounts for continued renewals
Likelihood to Recommend
It is best suited for teams looking for a suite of UI components that are rich in functionality and with a coherent API. The cost is high so there has to be genuine need for many of the components. There may be multiple options available for individual components like Gantt charts or spreadsheets but very few that offer them together as a a single package.
Alternatives
Progress Kendo UI
DHTMLX offers a package of specialized components which is difficult to find in other libraries - specifically rich functional components like Gantt chart and scheduler
