What are some good WPF grid controls?

Question

We use grid management from Infragistics at work. Are there any others? Pay or free?

Answer 1

I would add Telerik what MS used for office, IIRC. I don’t know if they passed WPF, but they have a good track record. I am also a fan of DevExpress and their support is great, but the wpf grid is still in beta. However, ordinary. Both of them pay, though, but are worth it.

I never found a good loose mesh. Guess that they are too hard to write. With what ... funny ... wpf, I doubt that someday there will be a good free one.

Answer 2

Free DataGrid (.NET3.5 SP1) located in CodePlex

Please check out the answers in this thread talking about DataGrid.

Answer 3

Xceed also has a DataGrid for WPF . It is reasonable and has a good feature set.

Answer 4

Telerik is usually a good bet: RadGrid

Answer 5

I started using the Infragistics control, which is large and very powerful, but it is difficult to use because its functions are so extensive. I feel the same way with ComponentOne. I switched to CPG DataGrid from Microsoft, and I had great success. Obviosly is not like a feature rich at this stage, like other controls of the third part, but overall I'm really good.

Answer 6

Try the XCeed grid ( http://xceed.com/Grid_WPF_Demo.html ). It also has a good demo page where you can see its features.

Answer 7

We use Xceed 3.0 DataGrid (pro version..but free version is excellent) more widely than anyone. It has the flexibility to handle more things than other grids .. in my opinion, of course.

Try everything, there are restrictions for everyone.

Answer 8

Definitely Xceed DataGrid for WPF , check out their online demo here: http://xceed.com/Grid_WPF_Demo.html

Answer 9

Whichever WPF grid you choose (and they all have their pros and cons), I would recommend looking at the Adaptable Blotter (www.adaptableblotter.com). It sits on top of all the leading WPF vendor networks and adds additional advanced features that developers typically need to add. Thus, you can use it with any DataGrids listed here, and you get - right out of the box - search, filter, audit, blink cells, bulk update, and much more.
