I want to develop a web dashboard in .NET. The backend will be Vb.NET. There are lot of chart controls in ASP.Net using which charts can be created. But as far as I know these charts wont be interactive. so I am thinking to use Highcharts. Please help me with your Suggestions. What is the best way to develop interactive dashboard in .NET?
Highcharts is a great product that is very easy to integrate in .NET.
For the page that needs a chart, you simply call a controller method that returns your data with Json and load that into the chart.
Here's a great tutorial: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/820349/Highcharts-in-asp-net-using-jquery-ajax
I'm currently developing an ASP.NET page report.
I am looking for a chart which display quality by grade on bar height.
I was wondering if you have any ideas for me as I have searched the web for few days now.
Microsoft Chart Control
Google Chart Tools (ajax)
SSRS rocks, Just have a try with this tutorial :

Google has a very easy to use Chart API. You can use your ASP.NET page to gather the data and then render the chart using Google's API
Try this: http://imagecharteditor.appspot.com/
There are lots of other Javascript and Flash based charting libraries as well:
http://www.highcharts.com/
http://www.fusioncharts.com/
FusionCharts XT is the leading enterprise charting solution.
Check out their gallery - http://www.fusioncharts.com/demos/
They also provide integration with ASP.NET (C#) - http://docs.fusioncharts.com/charts/contents/?guide-for-web-developers/csnet/CS_BasicExample.html
They've provided tutorials on how to plot charts using a database too - http://docs.fusioncharts.com/charts/contents/?guide-for-web-developers/csnet/CS_DB.html
They provide HTML5 charts as well as Flash charts.
The chart portfolio contains over 90 charts and widgets, and 550+ maps.
I am currently working on a project that is dealing with charts and tabs within an ASP.NET page. I am assigned to create a chart that will be generated from an array and a menu like system using tabs to select different options for the chart.
I have no idea how to implement this, I am using VS Web Developer 2010. I am new to ASP.NET framework and how to implement charts and tabs with this information. Basically it will be a form that the user will submit options and it will calculate a forecast of payments based on the options selected.
Please help, not sure where to even begin with ASP.NET. I have seen some things regarding AJAX controls but for some reason the controls are not loaded into VS.
For charts you can use asp.net chart control
I don't understand the part of the menu, but I think you can use the tabcontrol in the containers section of the toolbox
I'd highly recommend looking at Highcharts. It's a JavaScript library for rendering charts. It will create charts on the client-side so I'm not sure whether it meets your requirements (there are other products that support server-side generation of charts but I'm less familiar with these).
I'm not sure what you mean by using tabs for selecting different options, but Highcharts does have a lot of different rendering models and looks really good.
Take a look at their demo gallery and documentation for more information.
If you are reluctant to use client side charting solutions, try Highcharts.Net. It is a C# wrapper written around the Highcharts JS library. So you write all your code using Classes and objects in C#, and the library translates that into JS.
The added bonus is that you get to use ASP .Net's state management for data persistence. The project also has samples that can be downloaded here.
If you are using MVC, you could try out DotNet.Highcharts along with samples.
I'm working in an ASP.NET environment and i'm searching a framework (better if it is open source) which generate INTERACTIVE charts on server side. Since i have to publish this project also for mobile, i'm searching something that produces charts in HTML5.
Anyone could give me a suggestion or links about it?
Thank's so much

Try out Highcharts .Net (sample website) or DotnetHighcharts. Both are C# wrappers written around the Highcharts charting library.
The original library is in javascript, but both these projects are based entirely on C#, and you dont need to write any javascript code to get charts working. Both have sample projects, in case you are interested, although I think Highcharts .Net is more feature-complete if i'm not mistaken..
If you are looking to use MVC, DotnetHighcharts is the way to go, but if you intend to use webforms, Highcharts dot net handles viewstate for the charts so state management is no longer a headache for you..
It's not exactly what you are looking for, but might fulfil your requirements.
Have to checked out Google Chart Tools? Not to be confused with their infographics api or image charts api.
They will generate HTML5 etc dependant on what browser is used.
And can be considered semi-server-side I suppose, it will generate a portion the markup on Google's server side (n.b. not your server side), though I guessing this will depend on what chart is rendered as some charts will probably be mostly client side. However for any interactive chart a certain amount of clientside technology will be used anyway.
So I suppose it depends on if you mean server-side you mean it is essential it runs on your own server. Running on Google's infrastructure does give you the advantages of a CDN etc so it might outway the need of running on your own server.
You can use Syncfusion HTML5 chart control for your requirement. You can create chart with interactive features such as highlight date points, tooltip, exploded pie, etc., in ASP.NET environment .
Also, The HTML5 chart is using element for chart rendering. So, it is providing effective Client side interaction to the chart control. Please refer the below online document and sample link for HTML5 chart.

If you are interested in a commercial tool, I highly recommend Highcharts. We are using it in our commercial application. The pricing model is good--we evaluated it against FusionCharts--and it is very feature-rich, interactive.
Although commercial, you can use Highcharts under a CC license for everything except for-profit commercial apps.
its old link, But Amcharts are good option too. i used with webform and mvc applications and worked great for me.
You can use Shield UI HTML5 chart library, that will suit your requirement. I have tried it in ASP.NET environment and performs pretty well. For some examples please refer hereL https://demos.shieldui.com/aspnet/aspnet-chart/drill-down
Do you guys know of an ASP.Net chart control I can use to create Gartner's Magic Quadrant-style charts?
I also want bubble sizes to reflect the market volume for each data point.
As we are on a tight schedule, we do not have the option of rolling out our own custom solution.
The ASP.NET Charting Control provides advanced charting graphs. Scott Gu provided a really nice overview along with valuable links.
If you are familiar with Dundas, you will find the FREE ASP.NET Charting Control is very similiar to MS's offering. Why? Microsoft acquired Dundas Data Visualization Intellectual Property in April 2007 and is integrating this technology in different Microsoft products.
Review Scott Gu's post and Download the Microsoft Chart Controls Samples project to see what ASP.NET Charting Control can do. I also recommend looking at the Gallery at Dundas too.
Best of luck.
