"Multipurpose tool"
What do you like best about MATLAB?

Powerful for Numerical Computation – MATLAB is built for matrix and numerical analysis. Its syntax makes mathematical operations (like solving equations, performing linear algebra, or doing signal processing) very concise and intuitive.

Excellent Visualization Tools – You can easily create 2D and 3D plots, surface plots, and animations. It’s great for understanding data and results visually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MATLAB?

It is a High cost which software and usually startup time is slow due to extensive IDE Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"MATLAB: Everything an Engineer should need! From Simulations to Coding"
What do you like best about MATLAB?

It is an ALL in ONE tool. I honestly couldn't believe simulink is part of MATLAB and so easy integrated with MATLAB because of how different these two are. Simulink is definitely the best feature of MATLAB as it lets you carry out simulations super easy while defining the parameters of the simulation in MATLAB itself. I used it a lot for university and I still plan on using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MATLAB?

It's very resource-heavy sometimes. I'm not sure why but when I have couple of scripts open, it takes too much of my 32GB RAM and lags out my entire PC. I don't think just having scripts open without running them should do that. It needs more improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes calculations of formulas easier and manageable"
What do you like best about MATLAB?

you can prototype complex algorithms quickly without worrying about low-level details and you can try many different approches until your project is suitable for you Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MATLAB?

It is very expensive especially when you need to use it as an individual and also sometimes the it lags when testing large scale applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One and only reliable simulatopn software based on mathematical equations"
What do you like best about MATLAB?

Because we can visualise every equation that we solve,

I mostly use MATLAB for Civil engineering applications. i solve the Complex mathematical equations and plot them.

I when in Vcon Projects my last company used to cross check check the structural analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MATLAB?

MATLAB is a program based software. Which means we need to write a program or Code to execute the equations. Hence may be layman cannot use that product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"MATLAB is perfect to visualize your R code"
What do you like best about MATLAB?

MATLAB's easy to access to different libraries and visualisation of plots/graphs is a plus point Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MATLAB?

Sometimes the results are hidden in the plot view, difficult to figure out and knitting to PDF is a cumbersome task Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
