DevExpress engineers a complete range of AJAX enabled ASP.NET controls and libraries for Visual Studio .NET. These optimized Web controls allow you to create highly responsive Web applications that address your customer business needs in the shortest possible time. The following is a summary of features available across the entire DevExpress ASP.NET AJAX product line.

Fast and Lightweight

• Exceptional Performance - Speed is perhaps the most important aspects of a polished Web application. DevExpress controls are highly-optimized for exceptional performance and efficient memory use without the loss of functionality or features. Among the many innovations across our ASP.NET product line is the availability of two data sources that support on-demand data loading. DevExpress ASP.NET controls also support optimizations like HTML compression, callbacks, image sprites, resource caching and sharing.
• Lightweight HTML Markup - DevExpress ASP.NET controls use the minimum amount of HTML markup while still providing you and your users with advanced features like sorting, grouping and filtering. DevExpress ASP.NET navigation controls use semantic HTML to keep output clean and minimal. The semantic HTML markup means web pages that are lighter and faster, more search engine (SEO) friendly and it also gives you better accessibility with screen readers (for visually impaired users).
• Unlimited Appearance and Content Customization - From application-wide themes to complete control over every individual element
• Built-In Application-Wide Themes - All DevExpress ASP.NET controls ship with over 10 built-in themes – allowing you to change how a controls looks and behaves with a single mouse click.
• Appearance Customization - DevExpress ASP.NET controls fully support style properties so you can customize the appearance of individual elements and manage the overall appearance of a given control.
• ASP.NET Template Support - Templates are fully supported across numerous DevExpress ASP.NET controls. For each control and each element inside it, you can fully customize the appearance or layout using any HTML or server-side control.
• Comprehensive and Consistent API - Write consistent code, whether on server or client side
• Consistent API Across Product Line - Work seamlessly using a similar API for controls on the server and client-side. In fact, many controls also feature a similar API to the WinForms controls to leverage your knowledge of the WinForms suites.
• Rich Client-Side Functionality - A comprehensive client-side API is available for all DevExpress ASP.NET controls. This functionality which is coupled with the ability to handle events on the client side allows you to maintain full control over the control's behavior on the client.
• Extended Client-Side Events -The web controls expose a rich set of client-side events. These events are executed on the client side and have been engineered to maximize performance and to provide all key elements needed for the functionality of individual controls.
• Build Web Applications for the Broadest Audience - Accessibility guideline compliance and full support for all popular browsers
• Section 508 – Web Accessibility - DevExpress ASP.NET controls can help you create web pages that conform to accessibility guidelines. Though DevExpress web controls might not render markup that results in pages that meet accessibility standards, they expose API (properties, methods, events) that you can use to make the pages accessible. In addition, most DevExpress web controls implement the AccessibilityCompliant property that allows more accessible markup to be generated for individual controls.
• Cross Browser Compatibility - Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0+, Mozilla FireFox 2.0+, Google Chrome 1.0+, Apple Safari 3.0+, Opera 9.0+ and Navigator 9.0+. The controls are cross-browser compatible and are carefully tested on multiple browsers to ensure utmost compatibility.
