DHTMLX provides a wide range of tools

Overall, I like DHTMLX and would recommend it to anyone looking for a powerful library to create interactive web applications.

PROS

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.

CONS

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.

Vendor Response

Thank you, we appreciate your feedback!

Great Product!

We have implemented a project management web application from our parent company, that's allowed all subsidiaries to use the same app for scheduling. The yearly volume of work flowing through this application is roughly $150m.

PROS

The granular control of elements and styles is what I like about the dhtmlx gantt chart. While it took me some time to learn how to use it, it works well. We started using this product at the same time as we implemented a new web-applicaiton to replace Oracle's Primavera P6 for scheduling. We've been able to emulate the way it works very welll.

CONS

Early on, some of the functionality felt clunky (resources/graphing), but as we move forward and new updates are done, it seems to be getting cleaner. I would like it if the gantt could be made responsive. I don't like the export options. (Project/P6/Pdf). Our projects are very large (too large for the stated limits) and I don't know how to implement my own server.

Reason for choosing DHTMLX

Customizable, good documentation

Reasons for switching to DHTMLX

The cost of the oracle licenses for all of our project managment meant we had a single scheduler double-entering for all projects. An online web-application solution allows our project managers to (a) see live schedule updates and (b) make their own updates/changes so that there is no more double entry.

Vendor Response

Chris, thanks a lot for your review! Your feedback inspires our team and motivates us to keep on our work!

Looks nice out of the box, gives headache when implementing

As mentioned support is poor, price is too high.

PROS

Looks really nice. Seems to offer a lot of functionality. But is high in price and lacks support.

CONS

When implementing this software, you will encouter a lot of functions not or not properly working. With every update, new bugs will occur. Every bug you report to the support team will either not be fixed or after a year. Also every bug you report will cost you credits. So you buy the software plus credits for support and it will cost you to do their debugging.

Vendor Response

I am surprised to hear that your bugs were not fixed or fixed in a year and that you had to pay credits for bug fixing. At DHTMLX there is no credit system for fixing bugs and getting support. All support plans include a predefined number of support requests, which depends on the license type. We would like to investigate this issue and make sure that there was no misunderstanding between the DHTMLX team and you and hope for your collaboration.

Rich-featured, mature and performant Gantt Control

We use the Gantt component to display dependencies between projects, tasks and millstones on the timeline. Use the build in functionality to move, update, delete entities. In a special use case, we display the time-dimension of those entities connected to Finacial impacts with support of the histogram-cell-capacity view.

PROS

DHTMLX Gantt chart is performant, customizable and has a rich feature set like critical path, milestones, split tasks and especially the histogram-cell-capacity view.

CONS

The angular integration could be better, also the type support (d.ts) could be better (still a lot of any) but they are working on it.

Reason for choosing DHTMLX

- very mature and good functionality (lots of out of the box features, that are needed) - customizability - very performant

Vendor Response

Thank you very much for your review! We have improved the type support and updated the file with d.ts. The new version is available both in the trial and licensed packages.

Got everything that we were looking for our Angular Project

We researched around 6 different Angular libraries for our project's need of Gantt & Scheduler. Only DHTMLX has all the features that we needed. Their support has been excellent to help with our questions promptly.

PROS

Feature Rich - Gantt Charts and Scheduler functionalities, Excellent Technical Support, Easy to understand Documentation, Lots of Demos & Examples available

CONS

No major Cons. But, would like a theme selector if it's available.

Reason for choosing DHTMLX

We were missing some of the customization in the library and their support couldn't provide a solution. DHTMLX documentation and customization is sufficing all our needs.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your feedback and valuable ideas!
