GraphPad Prism Reviews

GraphPad is the software you need for statistics

Comments: I have used GraphPad to calculate IC50, EC50 in fluorescence-based assays for my scientific project. I've also generated my charts, figures and reports directly to publish in peer-reviewed journals because of their quality. It's an amazing software and it allowed me to transition from Excel and Origin and only use GraphPad now. However it's a bit heavy for my laptop.

Pros:

GraphPad allows you to have one month free trial with all the features. That's an incredible advantage for people who's learning and selecting their "go-to" statistic software. It's pretty easy to import data and replicates and perform analysis over these replicates. I've tried other software before and GraphPad is way easier to use and complete. Figures are amazing and you can easily add standard deviation, which is a must to in scientific publications.

Cons:

GraphPad tutorial is good and very informative. However, IC50 calculation tutorials could be improved adding real life examples with common absorbance or fluorescence experiments. Also, dose-response curves deserve more information and details about real life examples as well. About the software specifically, I would suggest to make it lighter, or develop a light version. My computer has 8GB RAM and good processor and still takes a lot to generate charts and analysis.

The software that makes statistics a breeze while producing beautiful figures

Comments: Analyzing datasets containing thousands of data points has never been easier! An easy to use click interface, beautiful publication-ready customizable figures, and all the statistical details you need in a click of a button.

Pros:

Incredibly easy to use, very helpful tutorials, beautiful publication-ready figures, a multitude of options for statistical analysis.

Cons:

This software does not offer scripting capability that is as useful as R or python. That being said, this software is designed to offer a click interface, and not a command line interface. It is meant to be easy to use with a click interface. It would be nice if both a command line and a click interface can co-exist for this software.

The Gold Standard for Statistical Analysis

Comments: GraphPad Prism has been an invaluable tool for me to statistically analyze scientific data from a variety of sources.

Pros:

It's an extremely powerful tool for analyzing data and performing statistical analyses.

Cons:

It can initially be difficult to understand how to input data correctly.

The worst customer service.

Comments: The software is good, but I have been over charged for two license at the same time and they never refunded me. I don't recommend anyone to get involve with graphpad licensing. Don't go for it except your company purchase the license because if they charge you extra, there is not even a phone number to call to solve the issue. You have to wait for weeks to hear back from them, when you are money is actually gone.

Pros:

Its user friendly but it does what other software do.

Cons:

The software is good but it is over price and has the worst customer service ever without even a phone number to call in case of problem.

Graphpad Prism Review

Comments: For researchers, Graphpad Prism is a blessing, as its allows them to analyse large dataset in a systematic and statistical way. It also allows the users to generate appropriate graphs for their data and even provides different features to enhance graph quality.

Pros:

The ease of usage is the key of Graphpad Prism. It allows to user to analyse their data statistically and generate a suitable graph relevant to dataset.

Cons:

The software allows usage for 30 days free trial. Although it allows different discounts for various categories of customers including students, teachers and industry person but still its not freely accessible.

Good for Stats and Figure production

Comments: It’s an extremely useful software that I use daily. Once you are familiar with it it is easy to manipulate for different purposes.

Pros:

The easy to use statistical analysis where the uses for each test are clearly described so that you can apply the right test to your data set. This way you not only use the right test but understand why that test is applicable to your type of data.

Cons:

Moving items around on a figure to align with the axes or other text can be clunky.

Pretty good statistical and graphing software package

Comments: It's been great. Meets all my needs, don't need anything more. I don't do as much stats as I used to but I'm still a loyal customer and use it whenever I need to run analysis.

Pros:

I am not that computer savvy so this is much easier for me to load data into and get the results I'm looking for comparted to other stats packages. I like the looks of the program and there are regular updates to make it better

Cons:

Some things are impossible for me to find and require googling/YouTube. I wish there was a better help/tutorial system than what is currently in place. This is infrequent, but I still wish some features were more intuitive. It would make this program perfect for me.

Great software

Comments: I am using prism very regularly to plot and analyse the data I obtain from most of my lab experiment. It make our life way easier in research.

Pros:

It is not easy to use at first but the help section is really well done and make it supper easy and enjoyable to use.

Cons:

It can be hard sometime to fine some shortcut. We can loose some time at the beginning doing things "the long way" but once we get it it a pleasure to use it

Great for professional graphing and analysis

Comments: Graphing and analyzing data sets in an academic research setting.

Pros:

Great graphing features. Particularly use the shaded error bars for plots with several data points that standard error bars would look messy on. Analysis is good - especially for derivative calculations, baseline corrections, and normalizing multiple data sets on the same graph.

Cons:

Some difficulties in the graph formatting wizard - graphs don't always transfer over well and you have to manually change things. Some formatting is very tedious. Could be a better search for different analysis options.

Great tool for business and academic institutions

Comments: That's a great a software that has been improved a lot in last years and I hope its developers keep it pounding

Pros:

this is a software with a genuine user friendly interface that allows data management and analysis and also to make reports through graphs.

Cons:

I think that the LAYOUT interface can be improved with design tools. I also find the software a bit expensive.

Excellent software for statistical analysis and producing data-driven graphs

Comments: GraphPad Prism has been of particular benefit for us when preparing scientific publications, it's easy to use for interpreting/analysing and graphing raw data. It's likely the most intuitive of the statistical and graphing programmes that I have used. I would recommend.

Pros:

The software has a sleek-easy to use interface and gives users guided samples of how to organise and arrange certain types of data. Lots of options for displaying and analysing data in a manner that are suitable for peer-reviewed publication. It also updates graphs stored in PowerPoint files automatically.

Cons:

Occasionally when using big data sets that software can end up crashing which can be frustrating. In these instances alternative programmes such as R may be a better bet.

Comprehensive Variant of Excel

Pros:

It had various data set ups that wouldn't be automatically formed if you were just using excel or google sheets. It includes statistical analysis as well as a variety of visual formats to display said data from bar graphs to box plots, etc.

Cons:

There is no tutorial when downloading the software. There is very little help from outside sources. It is best learned from someone already using the system

Makes everyone a statistician

Comments: Absolutely great. the figures are really nice, very good explanations, can't comaplin about almost anything!

Pros:

AS a researcher who really does not like statistics, even I have started to understand and can use all the things I need in just a few clicks. Also the tutorials are amazing, if once you really are stuck and dont know how to analyze. overall just really the tool that you NEED!!!!

Cons:

I think sometimes its hard to place e.g the legend on the same place in multiple graphs so that they all align when making a figure.

Excellent for doing anaylsis and producing publication qualty graphs

Pros:

I am a graduate student and have been using GraphPad prism since a few years! Previously, I tried R and other open source software but they have such a steep learning curve and even after, if you run into a bug, it takes forever to solve. I switched to graphpad prism and I spend so much less time doing analysis and graphing. It produces excellent quality graphs within minutes. It even has a feature to paint all your graphs using similar format, so I don't have to spend much time at all. Tutorials for everything are easily available on youtube!

Cons:

I would have loved if there was a free version available!

Go-to-Graphing and Statistic Software

Comments: GraphPad Prism makes it easy to graph and perform statistical analysis on research data. It can be pricey for individual users to purchase but as a research team, the benefits of the software outweigh the cost. It is the go-to-graphing software for our group.

Pros:

The ease of use once familiarized with the software. GraphPad Prism allows researchers to create graphs and perform statistical analysis all in one platform.

Cons:

GraphPas Prism can take some time for people to familiarize themselves with, especially for the spreadsheet/table format function of the software. The spreadsheet can also be confusing as the selected format type dictates the graph layout. A more user friendly spreadsheet like Microsoft Excel would be helpful to give the users more options.

Data Analysis Tool with High-Quality Graphing Capabilities

Comments: GraphPad Prism is a powerful and user-friendly software that can be a valuable tool for scientists and researchers. However, its high cost and limited customization options may make it less suitable for some users.

Its ability to create high-quality and customizable graphs, which can be easily exported for use in publications and presentations. Also, it's easy to import and analyze data from a variety of sources, including Excel and other spreadsheet programs. It also has a wide range of built-in statistical tests, making it easy to perform complex analyses without the need for programming.

Cons:

The software can be quite expensive, especially for individual users.

Customer Service Has Disrupted My Ability to Work

Comments: This software desperately needs a direct phone line to assist in troubleshooting issues. I have been going back and fourth with different customer service representatives via email for 3 weeks with no resolution to date. This is extremely frustrating to not be able to use the software needed to perform my job due to the lack of communication/access to customer service.

Pros:

According to coworkers, the software is intuitive and easy to use.

Cons:

Troubleshooting, Communicating, Customer Service

Essential to plot data and statistically analyze them

Pros:

It ia easy to enter and analyze data. Data can be represented in multiple ways. Representation have a very good quality and can be customized.

Cons:

There are so much functionalities that it's hard to know all of them.

create a beautiful graphs with SD by using graphpad prism

Comments: I switched from excel to origin and from origin to graphpad, today i created wonderful graphs with statical data by using this software
I request people to get it, because it is the ideal way to improve the quality of your work

Pros:

The quality of graphs and we founds all kinds(grouped,xy and others) Satstical analysis especially anova We can transfer graphs directly to word or ppt that's awesome The option of colorate graphs omg we can created own graphs with our prefer colors i really like that

Cons:

Maybe the price of this software because many students used just craked version

Great tool to produce Quality Graphs

Pros:

The best tool available to plot the graphs and do the statistical tests.

Cons:

Cost of the tool is too high. Symbol for p-value (***) is not inbuilt in this tool. We need to do it manually

Functional, but takes some time to learn

Comments: GraphPad Prism helps me organize my data and analyze it in the research I perform. I focus on cancer research in immunotherapy, and this software has gone above and beyond with results presentation when showing my data and results to my peers

Pros:

I love all the utilities and and tools given by GraphPad Prism. Extremely useful and very accurate when in my case I use it for research.

Cons:

Only con is that there are so many things you can work with this software that it actually took me some time to play with it and work around the functionalities that it gives to the user. So many that after a year of being a GraphPad user, I still feel there is so much more to learn from this software.

A user friendly tool for research publications

Comments: It has been amazing-quality graphs, user friendly and best tool I would recommend for data visualizations.

Pros:

I like the ease of use: I was able to learn the tool in a day and now as I am doing new skills, I am learning it day by day. Besides, its really easy to learn it from youtube videos.

Cons:

The graph to data linkages can sometimes be very confusing. At times, it just opens a new window and I am into a whole new file.

GraphPad Prism Review from Scientist

Comments: GraphPad Prism is essential for scientific data analysis and presentation. It is easier to use than other comparable software such as Sigmaplot or Origin.

Pros:

GraphPad Prism has a lot of built-in graphs and curve fitting that is suitable for scientific data analysis. The cloning wizard makes having multiple graphs with the same format very easy.

Cons:

GraphPad does not deal with lots of data very well. When a lot of tables/graphs are loaded, it can crash the program randomly.

Graphpad for science

Comments: Great tool for basic science.

Pros:

Supports large number of statistical tests, excellent in guiding user to the correct type of analysis, great graphics, make is it easy to design any type of chart.

Cons:

I have not identified any disadvantages with this software apart from inability to handle larger datasets and some common types of analyses for large datasets are not possible (i.e. PCA).

GraphPad has the cleanest graphs and most powerful statistics package I have used

Comments: 10/10 would recommend over any statistics and graphing software

Pros:

I love how clean the default graphs look when plotting data and all the graphical explanations for every statistical test!

Cons:

I can think of many negative things with this software except it may take a little longer to learn the vast applications it has.
