Plotly Dash suits well where you need to build a web-based reporting tool as a minimum viable product. You will be surprised when you build your first hosted web-based reporting tool in a few minutes without the need for web development expertise. However, when it comes to building a more complete solution, you may feel a bit restricted by the options provided by the API. But as you imagine, this is the cost of the abstraction of the web development layer, in other words, simplicity vs completeness. Still, Plotly Dash is a powerful option whenever you prefer simplicity over completeness.

We are the judgement that Wolfram Mathematica is despite many critics based on the paradigms selected a mark in the fields of the markets for computations of all kind. Wolfram Mathematica is even a choice in fields where other bolide systems reign most of the market. Wolfram Mathematica offers rich flexibility and internally standardizes the right methodologies for his user community. Wolfram Mathematica is not cheap and in need of a hard an long learner journey. That makes it weak in comparison with of-the-shelf-solution packages or even other programming languages. But for systematization of methods Wolfram Mathematica is far in front of almost all the other. Scientist and interested people are able to develop themself further and Wolfram Matheamatica users are a human variant for themself. The reach out for modern mathematics based science is deep and a unique unified framework makes the whole field of mathematics accessable comparable to the brain of Albert Einstein. The paradigms incorporated are the most efficients and consist in assembly on the market. The mathematics is covering and fullfills not just education requirements but the demands and needs of experts.
Mathematica is incompatible with other systems for mCAx and therefore the borders between the systems are hard to overcome. Wolfram Mathematica should be consider one of the more open systems because other code can be imported and run but on the export side it is rathe incompatible by design purposes. A better standard for all that might solve the crisis but there is none in sight. Selection of knowledge of what works will be in the future even more focussed and general system might be one the lossy side. Knowledge of esthetics of what will be in the highest demand in necessary and Wolfram is not a leader in this field of science. Mathematics leves from gathering problems from application fields and less from the glory of itself and the formalization of this.

Pros
  • Simple codes to create quick graphs.
  • Nice exportable figures.
  • Good for the initial exploratory analysis of the data.
Read full review
  • Doing the analysis is very good, plotting the data, getting the insight from data using this is easy and output looks pretty good
  • Solving mathematical problems, with detailed solutions step by step (mainly calculus problems)
  • You can also query this knowledge engine in simple English. It has ability to interpret that and will give you answer accordingly
  • Nowadays, it provides API to use, so you can do image processing, video/audio using this

Cons
  • React JSX syntax support can be added/improved.
  • Built-in UI components can be improved.
  • The API used for AJAX calls can be made more understandable and simpler.

Wolfram Mathematica is a nice software package. It has very nice features and easy to install and use in your machine. Besides this, there is a nice support from Wolfram. They come to the university frequently to give seminars in Mathematica. I think this is the best thing they are doing. That is very helpful for graduate and undergraduate students who are using Mathematica in their research.

The ability to manipulate algebraic expressions, nested lists, and data structures in Mathematica was unequalled when I first did the comparison. Since then, I've stuck with Mathematica mostly because it's "the tool I know."

  • Mathematica is our "go to" environment for developing solutions for our clients, so I suppose you could say that it is solely responsible for our revenues. On occasion we do use other platforms but Mathematica is a core component of our offer to clients.
