A good listview component for C# WinForms

Question

Does anyone know of a good listview component other than the one included with Visual Studio (as it looks kinda boring)?

Same here, however I think Infragistics offer a better ListView component. – Tom Nov 29 '10 at 00:12
I don't know about Infragistics or Telerik, but I know for a fact that DevExpress' XtraGrid is awesome... if you're willing to pay for it – Thomas Levesque Nov 29 '10 at 00:38
DevExpress and Telerik has better documentation IMHO. – Lex Li Nov 29 '10 at 02:03
Devexpress does NOT offer a listview control. – Omarrrio May 14 '16 at 12:14

If you want a free ListView, you should try ObjectListView, it has a LOT of features. You better be careful about the license if you want to use it in a commercial product though. See these answers for more information about the license: here and there.

Take into account the 10Tec iGrid control:

Its main features are:

Multi-column sorting with indication in column headers.
Grouping and autofilter are also available.
"Subitems" (cells) can be edited.
Rows can have different heights.
Rows/cells can be formatted dynamically easily.
Built-in incremental search.
TreeListView mode.
No flickering and fast work with 100'000+ rows.

To find out more, start from reading this article:

(Quick edit missed the Winforms bit). For Winforms controls, I'd recommend Telerik.

If you want to modify the look of your form and controls try DotNetSkin. You can modify controls from existing windows themes or your own controls by modifying it.

You may try Better ListView.

enter image description here

It has native look and feel. It also supports many nice features, like hierarchical items, multi-column sorting, data binding, three-state check boxes... the list goes on :-)

It is not a ListView wrapper, but self-contained control so it fixes all inherent flaws of .NET ListView (these are enumerated on ComponentOwl's website).
