I am looking for various options for charting/graphing.

My requirements are

  • this is for a business demo and hence needs to be really cool. And have all the bells/whistles like animations etc.
  • It needs to support a large set of chart/graph types (line, bar, pie, polar etc)
  • it should be highly configurable
  • it is for a larger audience and put on a projector. Hence it should have features like ability to control the size of labels, legend, etc
  • I prefer to go with something thats Jquery/Javascript/html5 based as these are latest technologies to stay and can suit tablets to big screens.

I need to know the pros and cons of various packages.

  • I saw things like FusionCharts (flash based), but has a lot of features
  • jqplot (jquery based)
  • some silverlight based

Need to understand which one meets my requirements best and has all the features.

I am open to anything as long as it meets the above requirements.

    I dont agree with what @Hrishikesh Choudhari has said above.

    FusionCharts Free renders charts in only in Flash. Where as the paid version XT renders the graphs in Flash & JS.

    see Note section in this link: http://www.fusioncharts.com/goodies/fusioncharts-free/

    You need to specify your charts explicitly if you want to render them in JS as default. with Fusioncharts.setCurrentRenderer('javascript');. If you dont specify it then It will first look for flash if its not there( iPad) then it will render the chart in JS.
    There are very minute, I should say insignificant, cosmetic changes in Flash & JS version.

    You can likewise use Google Chart Tools if you want free charts. Some of the Silverlight charts look promising too.
