Over the past 4 years, we have brought you Bunifu Dataviz as an option for data visualization within Bunifu Framework. Although Bunifu Dataviz did the job, it was limited in the feature sets notwithstanding, some design issues that took a long for us to fix due and was frustrating to our users.

One year ago we took a bold step and worked on a new chart platform for C# and Visual Basic.NET. The journey has not been easy due to COVID. Hence our product development slowed down. But we fought on and today, we are delighted to announce we have a new charts platform – BuniCharts! BuniCharts is a data visualization suite that offers a modern simple way to build chart UI. Create high performance engaging dashboards in Visual Studio for WinForms
