<h3 class="tellinghd">Why is Better ListView the best ListView<br />replacement component for .NET (C#, VB)?</h3>
<p>To put it simply, there is nothing like Better ListView out there. Nothing.</p>
<p>Better ListView has been designed as a component that can easily replace the original
ListView control supplied with .NET.</p>
<p>There is virtually no learning needed. It’s just intuitive.</p>
<p>Better ListView looks native and always fully utilizes the current system theme (so there is
no weird inconsistent look), and it also behaves exactly like it should. We’ve modeled it after
the original list view component and the list view used in Windows Explorer – everyone already
knows how to use it. It fully leverages the previous user knowledge.</p>
<p>We put extreme attention to details. All the little quirks and nuances that drive us crazy when
it comes to components of many smaller vendors are resolved in Better ListView. You will be
amazed how flexible and customizable it is, and how great it feels to use it. The users of your
application will feel right at home.</p>
<p>Most importantly, <strong>Better ListView is packed full of great features</strong>.</p>
<p>If you are wondering why we created Better ListView, you can read
<a href="better-listview/story.html">our story</a>.</p>
<p class="ending">And by the way, Better ListView comes with awesome samples explorer. Download and install
the trial package right now and see for yourself what Better ListView can do.</p>
