Graphing Software Options for Your Next App

by Brandon on February 6, 2010 · 3 comments

I’ve been doing some research lately on various graphing packages that are available and thought I’d share a few of the top choices I’ve found. Depending on your needs there are options for PHP, .NET, Adobe Flex, Adobe Air, ColdFusion, Java, Perl, or Ruby on Rails. Here are of some the best I’ve found:

FusionCharts

FusionCharts
FusionCharts is one of the best I’ve found. These charts can be integrated with ASP, ASP.NET, PHP, JSP, ColdFusion, Ruby on Rails, Python or HTML pages. They also work with Adobe Flex. FusionCharts is built by InfoSoft Global and also provide FusionWidgets (gauges, funnels, and Gantt charts) and FusionMaps.

.netCharting

netCharting
.netCharting provides some of the best looking charts I’ve seen, however as the name implies they are limited to .NET. The charting components contain various elements including gauges, maps, funnels, and financial charts, to name a few.

Emprise Javascript Charts

Emprise Javascript Charts
Emprise Javascript Charts aren’t as visually appealing, in my opinion, as FusionCharts or the .NET charts however they seem to be a solid option if you’re looking for javascript charts. They feature Ajax driven data (supports XML formatted data) and loads data on the fly.

amCharts

amCharts
amCharts provides Flash based charts, charts for Flex, and .net charts as well. amCharts can extract data from CSV or XML files and read dynamic data generated by PHP, .NET, Ruby on Rails, Java, Perl, or ColdFusion.
