Best of Connections Awards (Part 2)

And of course FarPoint Spread for Web Forms is also deserving of a nomination for the Best of Connections Awards. Problem that the product solves and the approach it uses: While organizations are burdened with Excel files and desktop data, mobility of workers and worldwide availability of data are pushing functionality to the Web. Accessing spreadsheet capability in an ASP.NET environment without needing Excel is a major requirement for corporate computing. FarPoint Spread for Web Forms, an ASP.NET spreadsheet component, gives developers full spreadsheet capabilities, Excel import/export, and AJAX interactivity, with a royalty free solution. Product’s strategic importance to the market: Many Web solutions offer some capability, but the only ASP.NET component that offers a complete spreadsheet solution is FarPoint Spread for Web Forms. Developers can add full Excel-like capabilities to their applications without needing Excel installed; import/export of Excel files is easy. Add sorting, filtering, grouping, over 300 built-in formulas for calculations, printing capabilities, and more to applications. Models allow customization and cross-development with Windows Forms apps. Product’s competitive advantages: Making a Web application should not require compromising functionality and speed. FarPoint Spread for Web Forms gives the developer complete customization of the control down to the individual cell level along with the rich interactivity of AJAX and cell types. This cell-level access is what allows the developer to create simple spreadsheet solutions with sophisticated interfaces on bound or unbound data. Performance can be optimized with load-on-demand paging and state management. Product’s value to the customer: FarPoint Spread for Web Forms gives the developers full control in how they present and edit their tabular data with a complete spreadsheet solution that goes beyond the Excel import/export capabilities. Whether data is coming from a flat file or a database, developers have complete control over data display and end user interaction. Developers enjoy a simple object-oriented ASP.NET component that seemlessly integrates with Visual Studio and has the best technical support in the industry. Also pretty good, huh?
