Three Top Benefits - Infragistics NetAdvantage

• Easily, and with great flexibility, give your applications the precise look and feel of todays most popular interfaces those of Microsoft Office, Windows, and other Microsoft applications.
• Built on frameworks and common object models, NetAdvantage is a single integrated toolset for creating commercial class user interfaces for Microsoft environments easy to learn and easy to move from one interface element to the next, and from one environment to the next.
• Create applications with the rich look and feel your clients are used to, even with thin client delivery in ASP.NET

Infragistics NetAdvantage is a true framework, not just a collection of disparate controls. Infragistics labored hard before writing a line of code to devise a mature architecture based on shared assemblies and common object models. This creates what Infragistics refer to as leveraged learning, meaning the effort to learn the first of the interface elements lets you learn the rest much easier. It also makes it easier to create standardized interfaces for your applications and even create your own elements by extending and inheriting visual elements from Infragistics Presentation Layer Framework. Its a primary reason for corporations to standardize all their development teams on NetAdvantage.
