ASP.NET Dashboard / Widgets

Question

I'd like to build a dashboard interface for an application I am working on. I want users to logon and get a birds eye view of the status of applications, outstanding issues, etc. I'm wondering if there are some good, pre-made controls rather than writing these from the ground up?

Answer 1

For graphs and charts I would first try out the built in charting library in Visual Studio 2010.

If you cant use 2010 (even the express edition) for some reason then look at the charting controls for VS2008 MS Charting

Answer 2

You could look at Telerik's RadDock control for ASP.NET AJAX. It is not free ;)

Answer 3

Just have a look at Dynamic Dashboards. It includes open source widget library.
