DHTMLX

Vorteile

Robust and complete set of JavaScript Controls. Good documentation and examples.

Nachteile

The controls are too Buggy. The controls fail to implement basic functionality. Major API changes requiring significant rewrites between major versions.

Vorteile

The ease of use for development, the look and feel of UI/UX also are great.

Nachteile

Nothing really. Perhaps more documentation, but not that important.

Vorteile

Excellent product at an acceptable price

Nachteile

In addition to excellent products, the Dhtmlx team is communicative and always at your service.

Vorteile

What I like is wide range that it offers. They are highly customizable and easy to implement in my web applications. Also, the documentation and support provided by it is excellent, which makes the development process much easier for me.

Nachteile

Sometimes I find it a bit overwhelming to understand and master all the features and functionality of the components. Although the documentation is solid, it could benefit from more examples and tutorials to help users get more familiar with the platform.

Vorteile

I like that DHTMLX is very easy to use and provides an array of features that make development quick and straightforward. The library also features a wide array of components for creating robust web applications. With its drag and drop feature, it's easy to move elements around the page and quickly customize the page to fit my needs. Additionally, the real-time updates, interactive charts, and custom widgets make it easier to create a dynamic and engaging user experience.

Nachteile

I do not like that the library can be a bit pricey if you need to purchase additional components or if you need to add additional features to your application. Also, there is not a lot of support for older browsers and devices, so you may need to make manual changes for compatibility.

Vorteile

DHTMLX offers a very nice graphical user interface that we integrate in our application. We offer a specialized scheduling and resource management with the goal of organizing hospital processes. Therefore, we do not only rely on standard calendar functions but need to provide non-standard functionality. Because of this, the possibility to develop custom dialogues and use customizable fields that can be integrated into the graphical user-interface of DHTMLX is the most important capability for us.

Nachteile

We would really appreciate a better handling of updates for DHTMLX. We do not receive any automatic update notifications and there is a lack of details in regard of change logs.

Vorteile

Unlike many projects out there this one continues to get updates. I've seen many products go stale and this one has not. Whenever you need support they are accessible and helpful. We are a development shop and tend to build a lot of what we need, but when we needed a Gantt chart that we could highly customize and DHTMLX fit perfectly.

Nachteile

I don't really have any complaints. It fits our needs. Whenever you use someone else's code their is a learning curve.

Vorteile

The product is nice, fresh, contemporary. The support always responds within a few hours. It is usable and will save a lot fo time when developing online tools for project management.

Nachteile

The customizability in terms of CSS is cumbersome. I mean you can easily customize any CSS output by overriding it - that's not the problem. However, I like clean code so I would rather build the CSS by compiling it from scss or less with my own user styles and variables overrides so I don't have to override them when compiled. Just a suggestion.

Vorteile

We used dhtml for developing the Gantt charts in our project management tool www.projecttoolbelt.com. The product was easy to implement and is evolving continuously. So we are able to always have the best features in our cloud HR and ERP apps

Nachteile

Better examples for integration can be given. Overall after comparing with other products in the same category this is really good.

Vorteile

Dhtmlx keeps their modules updated and current. The classes are clean and modern as are their themes. Using the classes is consistent between class files and methods. Their forums are generally very helpful.

Nachteile

Some of the smaller modules haven't gotten the same attention as the flagship modules, but still good.

Vorteile

Version 6 has a clean modern look and is designed for modern browsers

Nachteile

DHX is still working through the maturation process of the new virtual DOM architecture. The controls all work but they are still adding back events and fixing subtle things like selection highlights whena control loses focus.

Vorteile

Intuitive to use, many features, many documentation and examples, good customer support and a broad community.

Nachteile

We have found limits, especially for speed (often referred to in forums), for which we had to intervene at our expense

Vorteile

I am fairly new at developing user interactive websites so I was a little intimidated in building a robust yet easy-to-use corporate succession management system. I first heard about DHX in a user group forum and when I went to their website I found — literally — the answer to every component I needed. They have thought through their products extremely well. Their support is second to none with detailed examples and snippets that made a huge difference in how fast I was able to deploy and get up and running.

Nachteile

As a new developer, my learning curve was very steep and I found some of the support documents a little bit advanced for my level. With that said, their support made all the difference with very fast turnaround and great information.

Vorteile

The product is largely error-free and runs in different browsers .

Nachteile

DHTMLX is basically very easy to understand and structured.

Vorteile

We like that there are many other (larger) companies that trust DHTMLX for their software needs. The integration guides and support are the best. If we have a question, support is available.

Nachteile

It's most likely obvious to most but this does required an experienced developer to integrate.

Vorteile

We were able to quite rapidly integrate the library in our code base and have a Gantt chart up and running and this saved us precious time. We appreciate the responsiveness of the support team at DHTMLX to guide us in customizing the library to our specific needs.

Nachteile

There is definitely a learning curve for a developer to be able to implement and customize the library, but the documentation available is helpful.

Vorteile

Good performance, easy to implement, good configurability, much better than our previous provider

Nachteile

Lack of Angular support, unsuficiant Typescript definition, feature requests and bug fixes without ETA

Vorteile

- The range of components
- Quality of the documentation
- Simple to integrate, even if you're not a javascript pro

Nachteile

- Some things don't work as one might expect (no simple copy/paste in the js spreadsheet, for instance)

Vorteile

Easy to understand, good interface & user experience.

Nachteile

Detail Resource management and earned value analysis.

Vorteile

DHMTLX components are feature-rich and easy to use. Compared with other products on the market the price is great.

Features are useful for final users and it is obvious, products are designed by someone who has a real experience in how it is going to be used.

Implementation was surprisingly easy. I expected a couple of months, however, we had the final product within 1 month.

Great!

Nachteile

i wish the will make some new components which we can implement into our product

Vorteile

Fully-featured UI to put on top of our data model and processes. Very flexible with many features. Robust documentation with examples. Active and highly responsive support community.

Nachteile

Okay, this is pretty super small... in the Lightbox I can add text fields. I would like a rich text editor.

Vorteile

..didn't really have the time to evaluate dhtmlxGantt properly

Nachteile

dhtmlxGantt Free Trial is somewhat of a nagware - the day after the trial ends, it will fire message windows every few seconds, making it impossible to continue to use your overall application at all - even if you do not use actually dhtmlxGantt but just have it included.

Vorteile

First off, I really appreciate the various examples of how to utilize their Gantt library and the level of detail in their documentation. Both of these have made adoption drastically faster.

As far as features, for the application that I'm working on it requires a Gantt that can support cyclic dependencies and I was happy to see cycles were supported.

Nachteile

I found the marketing website to be a little overwhelming. There is a lot of information and for me as a buyer I care about what features are available and the cost.

For critical path calculation, I would like to see in the documentation how the critical path is calculated.

Vorteile

Vast documentation that facilitates the development

Nachteile

Require in same resources (Grid) only JSON file

Vorteile

Good Support during first steps, a lot of good examples

Nachteile

It will be helpful if there are more customization by the default implementation

Vorteile

Fast
Easy to use
MSProject and Primavera import export

Nachteile

We found some bugs, but the support gave us a way around

Vorteile

Easy to set up and configure. We were able to produce a gantt chart as expected by our client very quickly and export it to PDF.

Nachteile

The fact that you need to call their server to export a gantt to a PDF File if you don't want to install their node package

Vorteile

Look
Ease of use for users
appropriation of source codes
its capacity for integration

Nachteile

This will come with time
for the time being it is early to make a judgement
