LabVIEW Reviews & Product Details

LabVIEW is systems engineering software for applications that require test, measurement, and control with rapid access to hardware and data insights. The LabVIEW programming environment simplifies hardware integration for engineering applications so that you have a consistent way to acquire data from NI and third-party hardware. LabVIEW reduces the complexity of programming, so you can focus on your unique engineering problem. LabVIEW enables you to immediately visualize results with built-in, drag-and-drop engineering user interface creation and integrated data viewers. To turn your acquired data into real business results, you can develop algorithms for data analysis and advanced control with included math and signal processing IP or reuse your own libraries from a variety of tools. To ensure compatibility with other engineering tools, LabVIEW can interoperate with, and reuse libraries from, other software and open-source languages.

"LabVIEW was easy to learn and intuitive to use. The UI is very user friendly and provides good tips."

5/5

What do you like best about LabVIEW?

LabVIEW contains all the drivers necessary to start my project off. All resources are located in a similar space that enable me to find and use easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LabVIEW?

So far I have not much to say about the downsides. The only difficulty I faced so far was the lack of training included with the professional license. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LabVIEW:

Spend time researching the software and relevant hardware before choosing your options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LabVIEW solving and how is that benefiting you?

I worked on automating our PCA test equipment to enable a faster and efficient way of electronically testing our PCAs. A higher production rate was realised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"We use it daily. Handy product"

5/5

What do you like best about LabVIEW?

How many products would support LabView and how easy it is to get community support on various stuff.

We purcahsed so many equipment in 2021 and used Labview to control them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LabVIEW?

Actually the pricing would be the only thing we didn't really like about LabView.

If it could be made significantly less expensive more users will be abel to enjoy it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Endless engineering opportunities though tough to get started with no previous experience."

4/5

What do you like best about LabVIEW?

I like the breadth of options that Labview has to offer to form an application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LabVIEW?

There are too many ways and paths to develop an application. If you are a casual user and not entrenched in the NI community, it can be challenging to decipher the best way to solve a problem. However, the support engineers are available and eager to help! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LabVIEW:

LV a great tool for solving laboratory measurement and observational problems. Utilize the support and plan on becoming a subject matter expert to get the most out of the purchase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LabVIEW solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are solving a high temperature observational test method that will hopefully lead to automated analysis in the future. I have realized the integration and support from the 3rd parties that NI works with is excellent - Graftek has been working with us through the development process.

"LabVIEW user for HIL platforms for over 5 years"

4/5

What do you like best about LabVIEW?

Fairly intuitive, a large support community, easily scalable software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LabVIEW?

The lack of a zoom feature in the regular Labview platform. I think it is included in NGX, but I don't see that platform used as much. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LabVIEW:

It is a great product if it fits your application. It excels at industrial use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LabVIEW solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using it to create HIL test benches. Also used in the past for production test benches combined with NI Veristand and Teststand for a complete automated system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It works"

3/5

What do you like best about LabVIEW?

I can collect data from my test system. I can perform calculations within the program and display the calculations and data manipulation on a screen. I can print my data to a CSV file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LabVIEW?

Getting help from support has proven to be very difficult. The software has issues sometimes. It is quite the learning curve to be able to use the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
