Hi All;



I'm trying to finalize my tools before starting the app. The App. will be partly Windows and partly ASP.Net sharing data.



I like to get some thoughts and experiences from SF team and those how have chosen one v.s. the other and why?



a) SF comes with a limited number of Windows components that are nicely tied with SF framework and also takes advantage of SF theme system. This helps building a uniform application, but the components are limited, especially when it comes to the ASP.Net part (I mean for grid and new Web gadgets that IG offer).



b) Infragistics (IG), offer a very nice and complete components, with a powerful "Application Stylist" design for Windows and web. This gives you a wide range of designs, BUT you loose the SF themes (like the navigation tool bar, application header and etc.) and also we loose some of the SF integrations that are already in SF components.



Due to my lack of experience (being new to SF and IG), I really would like from those who have gone through this road to share their suggestions.



Thank you in advance!
