Likelihood to Recommend	Engineering, mathematical modeling, and machine learning are all fields where MATLAB will shine. It's fast, reliable, and relatively easy to use. MATLAB is the de facto standard when it comes to producing high-quality plots. If you need to deal with large data sets, and not take forever processing them, MATLAB may very well be the tool for you! Incentivized TR Tom Reid Asst. Prof. of Mathematics Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	Has robust and easy-to-use debugging tools that can help one identify problems in one's codes. Rich, well-developed and efficient library of mathematical and statistical functions that one might need to develop models or perform statistical analysis. A very active online user community that is a great resource in terms of seeking help when you hit a snag. Great help literature (and sometimes videos too) on all tools making it possible for all to train themselves. Incentivized Abdullah Umair Bajwa Graduate Researcher Read full review	No answers on this topic
Cons	MATLAB should have a full free version (without time limit) in order to be more accessible and thus have a greater user community. The idea of having toolboxes to work directly with hardware (microcontrollers, single-board computers) is great, but one can tell it isn't updated very frequently and there isn't as much documentation available as with more common resources. Our organization had a lot of trouble getting our network licenses to work properly and there wasn't any local service provider that could help us get it to work faster.

Usability	The best thing about MATLAB is the variety of research and development fields it supports. The reason for this rating is that it is best used for medical images enhancement and signal processing, it is also used for speech to text conversion. This tool server is best when the demand is for machine learning. Incentivized Jatin Gupta Assistant Professor Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	The built-in search engine is not as performing as I wish it would be. However, the YouTube channel has a vast library of informative video that can help understanding the software. Also, many other software have a nice bridge into MATLAB, which makes it very versatile. Overall, the support for MATLAB is good.

Alternatives Considered	The commands and coding language of MATLAB reads a lot more in plain English as opposed to all the periods and other special characters that are needed when typing in Python or Java. Additionally MATLAB has several different function packages that can solve all different categories of problems so you don't have to make a bunch of different code scrips from scratch.

Return on Investment	MATLAB has made me a better coder. I can see the code behind inbuilt functions which helps me improve my own coding. The various features offered in the software helped me to understand new topics in a relatively short span of time. MATLAB has a rich forum and library which allows exchange of ideas and info with other users. This has certainly broadened my horizon.
