xamWebGrid™ - The Fastest Silverlight Data Grid Control Available

Present tabular, graphic, and text content via the high performance hierarchical data grid control.

xamWebGrid is faster than other Silverlight grid controls when performing some common business usage scenarios. As an editable hierarchical data grid control designed for high performance, your users can work with many hundred thousand rows in a single bound! With unrivaled data and UI virtualization on rows and columns your users get superior performance and responsiveness. It's fully featured to show master/detail relationships between records with lightning-fast expansion, column movement, group-by and filter rows, and sort at blazing speed.

Bringing more than lightning-fast tabular data to your Web-based, Silverlight 3 applications, you stand to deliver those rich behaviors that users have come to expect from the Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet in terms of selection, column resizing and much more. Cells can present more than data with complete templating.

 

Fastest on Common Business Usage Scenarios

We routinely performance test our Silverlight UI controls like xamWebGrid to ensure a lightning-fast user experience. We have tested against the following common business usage scenarios that occur in your line of business applications all of the time. Read our performance whitepaper for why, and try xamWebGrid to experience our blazing speed for yourself.

  • Data Binding - to IList, ObservableCollection, ItemsSource, hierarchical data and more.
  • Scrolling - immediate, deferred and scrolling specific cells into view.
  • Sorting - numeric and string sorting.
  • Row Expansion - as well as collapsing rows.

It's even more interesting when we compared against others' Silverlight data grids binding against the same data, in the same way with comparable features enabled - we found ourselves to be faster than other Silverlight data grids in common scenarios.
