We are proud to announce 3 new releases – AnyChart 7.6.0, AnyMap 7.6.0, AnyGantt 7.6.0. Our team has been working hard to make our products even more aesthetically pleasing, and now all AnyChart charts have a new modern look and design (See the New Look and Theming feature). We have also added a number of other great improvements, and here are the most important of them:

AnyChart 7.6.0 New Features

All AnyChart products now support the Theming feature which makes customizing and integrating charts easier. With Theming, you can set similar visual and functional settings for all charts without duplicating your code.

Eugeniy Stern Recommends AnyGantt to His Clients

April 11th, 2011 by Margaret Skomorokh

We are happy to publish a new success story, this time about Eugeniy Stern – an independent SAP development consultant, who has been working in this field since 1997, assisting large enterprises in oil-producing, oil-refining and transport industries. In some of his projects, he used AnyGantt.

The SAP NetWeaver technology platform enables the composition, provisioning, and management of SAP as well as non-SAP enterprise software applications. There is a built-in solution for creating Gantt charts, but it was found lacking visual appeal needed for business reporting.

After a market research, it appeared that AnyGantt fits best of all the charting components. AnyGantt was recommended to the clients, and during this year, a few projects using AnyGantt in SAP NetWeaver will be launched.

The story can be found here: Eugeniy Stern Recommends AnyGantt to His Clients >>

Knowledgebase Updates

February 16th, 2011 by Margaret Skomorokh

Don’t forget that we have a knowledgebase: https://www.anychart.com/kb

We have already written about it before: https://www.anychart.com/blog/2009/06/30/anychart-knowledge-base

We do our best to update it as and when necessary and recently have added a few articles:

AnyChart

AnyGantt

We want to note that this problem: Documentation doesn’t display properly in Internet Explorer 7 and later has lost relevance in AnyChart 5.1.2.5

P.S. We are very pleased that our customers often find a minute to thank us and we have eventually added a testimonials page: https://www.anychart.com/company/testimonials.php

Thanks to everybody who has spoken out or not.
