OriginPro Reviews & Product Details

I have been using OriginPro for more than 20 years, for processing raw data files and analysis. Along my professional career, I have been using OriginPro for all my figure presentations, reports and manuscripts for publication. It is a great versatile tool, with a huge number of options tools in statistics, data manipulation, fitting, signal processing, digitizer, plotting, etc. I love the fact that, using OriginPro, "the data is becoming alive" and we can interact in a more fluid/dynamic way with results.

I agree and support this observation: very little in the way of downsides and if one encounters an issue, the support is superb and responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the flexibility of Origin pro compared to other plot/figure making software. I do not need so much preparation of the data (most of my data are in excel). Just simple copy paste of my data or simply importing it making it very convenient. I used Origin pro almost 5 times a week. From plotting to testing simple stat difference in my experiment. The graphics also gives a more professional impression. I love how originpro has most of the essential to advanced stat test included in the package. The tutorial on how to use the software is available in the internet both in reading and video format. Purchasing inside the US is also easy and convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I did encounter diffculty of finding resources to format my plot. Sometimes it is not as straight forward as it seems probably because of the specific format I wanted to do. I think it is not totally bad because there so many online resources in the internet available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using OriginPro extensively in my research work, particularly for plotting experimental results and conducting statistical analysis. One of the most valuable features for me is the nonlinear curve fitting with multiple built-in fitting functions and the ability to customize or script your own models. This is incredibly useful when dealing with complex experimental datasets, such as those from experimental petrology.

My favorite aspects of OriginPro include the ease of generating publication-quality plots, the intuitive drag-and-drop plotting interface, and the smart plotting templates that save a lot of time. The software also integrates very well with Excel, which is a big plus for managing large datasets.

I primarily use OriginPro for plotting time-series reaction data, fitting kinetic models, and comparing results across experimental conditions. The multi-panel graph layouts and batch processing capabilities are also extremely helpful for streamlining repetitive workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One drawback is that OriginPro does not support macOS natively， I have to install a virtual machine or set up a dual-boot system, which is inconvenient and resource-intensive. Despite this limitation, I highly recommend OriginPro for any researcher who needs a robust and flexible platform for data analysis and scientific visualization.

1. At a time where many software packages are bloated, buggy and slow, I find that OriginPro is totally stable and responsive.

2. I use it almost daily and have never had it crash.

3. Once you are used to the GUI (all software has a learning curve) it is a very efficient graphing/analysis program to work in.

4. I can have multiple instances of OriginLab open and move data, plot formats etc. between them without any crashes.

5. Customer support -- they answer your emails quickly.

6. Huge number of plot formats - pretty much everything you'll ever need for making publication quality plots.

7. Exports graphs as emf's that open in Illustrator perfectly.

8. I'm a C programmer at heart and love the ability to write C-like code (OriginC) as macros.

9. They offer inexpensive student licenses for the grad students in my lab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The spreadsheet has a functionally similar to excel, but it's "formula" aspect could be improved. There is a formula cell above each column (labeled F(x)=) that is useful, but doesn't provide the flexibility that excel can. However, moving data between excel and Origin is easy, so I often apply formulas in excel and then paste back into Origin.

Too many icons - I assume you can hide many of them, but they surround the interface on all sides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many items that I appreciate and include:

The ability to work with large volumes of data and present key information.

Once you get the hang of it, it is easy to use, and you can trust the results it generates.

Data manipulation is satisfying using the formula fields with data being treated as column vectors.

There are many mathematical tools and gadgets that one uses which includes a curve digitizer.

In summary, one's efficiency increases dramatically by using OriginLab.

The use of folders neatly compartmentalises the project into defined sections and I am a very satisfied user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Supports 2D, 3D, contour, heat maps, and more, all highly customizable and visually appealing for publications and presentations.Built-in curve fitting, peak analysis, statistics, and signal processing save time and reduce the need for multiple software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Origin Lab's ability to plot and analyze time series data in multiple time series. The intuitive nature of the data plotting interface makes visualizing contemporaneous but seemingly disparate data streams easy. And you can back out of a particular visualization quickly. If you prefer to use another spreadsheet application--say Excel-- to work up your data before porting it into Origin, the transition is seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The application has gotten a bit dated, owing to the company trying, perhaps a bit too hard, to keep all the legacy menus. Doing stacked data plot displays is a bit clunky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Origin is quick, comprehensive, saves me significant time compared to prior analysis method for the same tests being performed. Customer support has been world-class and I have been using the software frequently since I first started with it about 4 weeks ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't say that I truly "dislike" anything about Origin. One of the biggest challenges for me has been the sheer breadth of functionality and zeroing in on what I needed to learn to accomplish my immediate objectives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very straightforward usage, customizable, and ability to produce clean graphs and powerful integration with many different types (and brands) of spectra. Customer service is very good and responsive as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Column manipulation is not super intuitive. Would be great to be able to add equations on a cell basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great with data analysis and data plotting. Best tool avilable for summering research data for presentaions and publications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not that I know of. However, the maintenance cost is high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
