A Spreadsheet Control/Component by Pagos, Inc.

Superior performance:
Developed in C++, PSC provides superior performance running even the most complex Excel applications and because it is designed and developed for high speed server side use, advanced optimization techniques have been applied. Using deferred calculation and dependency maps, component ensures maximum performance. Commonly used functions such as IF, VLOOKUP, and HLOOKUP are further optimized.

XML Input/Output:
PSC accepts XML documents as input and returns XML documents as output. It is a preferable alternative to directly calling cells in your code to build more scalable solutions

Maintains the integrity of Excel spreadsheets:
Unlike most products in the market, PSC keeps your files in Excel rather than converting them into a different format. It provides business users the control to update the calculations and logic residing in Excel when needed.

Excel Compatible:
PSC supports 300 most common Excel functions and because it is designed to handle very large and complex spreadsheet engines, every effort was made to match the results calculated by Excel. For this purpose, PSC has an internal testing facility to compare its calculated values to the ones calculated by Excel. This testing facility can be used by the end-user to test if the Excel spreadsheet is fully compatible.

Easy Configuration and Use:
PSC is a self registering component and doesn't require any configuration. Therefore, it is ready to use after installation and is added to the 'reference dialog' of Visual Studio.NET automatically. Its simple COM and .NET API makes using PSC very easy.

Scalable:
You can build your application by implementing spreadsheet calculations as independent transactions using PSC. This allows for maximum scalability and flexibility for load balancing. Also multithreaded architecture of the component allows it to scale by adding new processors to the system. With PSC, it is easy to scale up an application by adding new servers to the farm.
