Syncfusion® Releases Volume 4 with Cross-Platform Mobile Development Tools


New controls enable developers to target all mobile platforms via a single code base

RTP, N.C. – October 25, 2011 – Syncfusion®, an enterprise technology provider of .NET components and controls, today announced the release of a new version of its award-winning Essential Studio® Enterprise Edition. Volume 4 gives developers the ability to target all mobile platforms (Android, iOS, Windows Phone, BlackBerry) with a single code base. It provides a cross-platform ASP.NET MVC chart control that leverages HTML5 and adds a PDF Viewer to the MVC suite.

Analyst firm Forrester Research predicts corporations will spend up to $17 billion creating mobile applications for their products and working with third-party services and companies that manage these applications.

This release contains mobile controls written using the ASP.NET MVC runtime, which Syncfusion® refers to Mobile MVC. As a result, ASP.NET MVC web developers can now create cross-platform mobile applications without having to learn a new programming language.

“To meet the needs of today’s mobile enterprise – companies must have a multi-device mobile strategy. However, this can quickly drain internal resources,” said Daniel Jebaraj, vice president, Syncfusion®. “With this release, Syncfusion® saves developers time and broadens deployment options by enabling one code base to be used across mobile platforms.”


Other key Volume 4 features include:

  • HTML5-based ASP.NET MVC Chart for mobile devices with touchscreen support
  • PDF Viewer for ASP.NET MVC
  • Essential BI Grid for ASP.NET MVC
  • Project I/O library (similar to XlsIO and DocIO, allows users to create, edit, and save Microsoft Project files without any dependence on Microsoft Project).
