Which ASP.NET server control would you suggest for this?

I need to build a web page that has categorized data that looks like the screenshot below. Initially, I thought of using a Repeater or a DataList but I am not sure. Which ASP.NET control do you suggest? I am working on ASP.NET 4.0

enter image description here

Use a ListView. It will give you the functionality you need with the added benefit of clean markup using the templates.

Use nesting in the templates "if you really have to". Avoid nesting top-level controls like the ListView - totally unnecessary and a performance killer.
