DevExpress is now a dominant force in the VCL market and wins Delphi Informant's Best VCL Component awards four years in a row. At the start of the decade, they turn their attention to the Microsoft developer community, becoming the first vendor to ship a .NET UI Control Library. This first control – the XtraGrid – is now at the heart of the unparalleled UI control suite for .NET WinForms – and even now no one comes close to the power and feature set of DevExpress WinForms Subscription. We also set the tone for third-party UI suites by releasing the full source code as part of the subscription.
