Gantt Chart Controls on Windows Forms

Question

We are evaluating options for a Gantt chart control (on Windows Forms) as opposed developing one on our own. What are the various Gantt Chart controls you have had experience with? Pros and cons?

Is it a viable idea to develop such a control from scratch (given that the control is not the primary product in this case)?

Update: Just bringing this up again since I've got only one answer. I'd be very grateful for more inputs. (Hope this is legal.)

Answer 1

Check out ILOG Gantt

Answer 2

I have not worked with the Gantt charts from Telerik, but many people are very happy with Telerik. I would never consider creating my own Gantt chart except if i was in the business of selling user controls

Answer 3

Hello,

Check out this company:

I have used their Gantt controls in both Winforms and WPF applications.

Answer 4

FlexGantt at http://www.dlsc.com is a Java control but as far as I know you could port it to .NET with J++ or so. Then again, I am not an expert in that area.
