OriginPro tool for batch processing and equation solver **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jose V. | Transformational Physicist, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 12, 2026 **What do you like best about OriginPro?** 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. **What do you dislike about OriginPro?** 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. **What problems is OriginPro solving and how is that benefiting you?** My most recent problem was related to batch processing, and equation solver for system of equations. Currently at work we are generating a huge number of data files which required a painful and repetitive workflow for analysis and presentation. After reaching out to Origin technical support, they helped me to understand how to use this powerful tool of batch processing that automates the application of a uniform set of analysis and graphing operations across multiple data files or datasets. This changed completely the way I'm looking and processing my data now. This also keeps at better organization of projects, and individual files can be easily retrieved and checked out in case of outliers or red flags. After a quick advise from their technical support, everything works greats and intuitive. For sure, their technical support deserved a 10 out of 10 note! great service and very friendly, always open to help. ### 2. Reliable and flexible way of making plots and statistical analysis **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Marco D. | Postdoctoral fellow, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 25, 2025 **What do you like best about OriginPro?** 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. **What do you dislike about OriginPro?** 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. **What problems is OriginPro solving and how is that benefiting you?** The problems Originpro solving for me is the statistical analysis and data presentation. This is really very important to me as postdoc. Large data is also my concern which some other software cannot handle. ### 3. OriginPro Greatly Enhances My Experimental Data Workflow **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** RUI L. | POSTDOC, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 05, 2025 **What do you like best about OriginPro?** 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. **What do you dislike about OriginPro?** 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. **What problems is OriginPro solving and how is that benefiting you?** I mainly use OriginPro for processing results from serpentinization experiments, kinetic model fitting, and comparing different mineral compositions. It has become a core tool in my scientific workflow. ### 4. OriginPro data analysis and graphing software **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2025 **What do you like best about OriginPro?** 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.

Used Origin Pro in advaced Chemistry Lab Course **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Allison F. | Associate Professor of Chemistry, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 02, 2024 **What do you like best about OriginPro?** OriginPro is an exceptional modelling tool for students to learn the importance of curve fitting for spectroscopic analysis. Plotting and data analysis are very easy to use for students who have limited coding experience. The visualization of the various functions in particular allowed students to understand the complexities of selecting the correct model. Students also were able to curve fit using various functions - Guassian, Lorentizan, or mixed Gaussian-Lorentzian. Students modelled spectra and integrated and could argue the benefits of one model over another. I've been a researcher for 20 years, and Origin is the gold standard of spectroscopic analysis for my research. The opportunity - through the course license - to teach students how to use Origin is more than just creating professional quality figures - but its about teaching students the necessary tools for high quality spectral analysis. I argue that students need to have access to software like Origin if they are to be competitive in the market. In a three-hour lab class, students imported their data, learned to do a baseline subtratction, and then deconvoluted multiple peaks. By the end of the first lab period, students were alreaady trying out various models and learning to visualize their data beyond the tradiational and limited spreadsheet software they typically use. Implementing the OriginPro Course Lisence into my class is a game-changer. I strongly recommend considering using OriginPro in your courses for advanced students, in particular, students who are planning for graduate studies in chemistry. **What do you dislike about OriginPro?** The downsides is that the software is not avaiable on Mac. There really isn't a downside. **What problems is OriginPro solving and how is that benefiting you?** OriginPro is solving the problem of quickly getting students well versed in spectroscopic analysis. The software is so intuitive that students can learn spectral deconvolution in real-time as they analyze spectra. ### 21.

This is very powerful for keeping the quality of graphs. **What do you dislike about OriginPro?** Sometimes I want to copy and paste whole columns, but I should do it twice, one for data points and another for the information tab. I hope the whole copy and paste is available. (if it is already present, please let me know.......) **What problems is OriginPro solving and how is that benefiting you?** As a graduate student, I'm processing experimental data a lot. Origin works way better than Excel. More graphs are available targeting research, and it is easy to always make graphs with similar quality. **Official Response from OriginLab Corp.:** > Thank you for the review!

OriginLab Review_CarlosOsorio **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Carlos O. | PhD Candidate, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 30, 2022 **What do you like best about OriginPro?** Is a friendly software to classify and analyze almost any type of data. Furthermore, allows for performing very accurate statistical analysis (inferential and multivariate). Likewise, the graph-building interface is very easy to use and customize and the graph suggester is simply awesome to change the perspective on how you can represent your results. Finally, the app suggester is a big plus when you do not know or you are not sure which type of analysis you need to perform. **What do you dislike about OriginPro?** One thing that I find a little tricky to use is the nonlinear fitting, specifically when you try to analyze complex models. is true that you have a classification of several models that helps to screen which one you will be able to use. However, some variations of the same equation are not available there and the interface to write our own equation in the box is a little bit complicated and tricky at the moment to enter the algebraic form of the model. Another thing that I find kind of annoying is that when you perform some co-statistical analysis such as Person correlation during the linear fitting for example we cannot merge the correlation graphs with the original ones. Oh....another thing the app to "analyze" molecular gels is not accurate almost not in the current version, also I cannot find a tutorial on how to use this app, perhaps a little extensive tutorial or a webinar for this app will be great. **What problems is OriginPro solving and how is that benefiting you?** The main problem that OriginPro help me to solve is to save lots of time during the statistical and data analysis due to its friendly interface and friendly graph making. Furthermore, I compared the obtained results from several statistical analyses obtained using OriginPro vs Minitab or SPSS and I find more consistency and accuracy with OriginPro after performing the analysis several times. **Official Response from OriginLab Corp.:** > Hi Carlos, Thank you for your review! About the Gel Analyzer app, we do have a tutorial video that can be viewed from App center or by going to our File Exchange page: https://www.originlab.com/fileExchange/details.aspx?fid=522. Could you please share with us the details on the issue with accuracy that you're having at tech@originlab.com? We value your feedback, thank you again for the review. Sincerely, OriginLab ### 48. Powerful but busy **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** jordan h. | reseach assistant, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 22, 2022 **What do you like best about OriginPro?** There are so many options, to visualize and organize data. It's easy to include all facets of data capture into a visualization with origin. **What do you dislike about OriginPro?** It's very busy software, and not very intuitive. It has unique shortcuts that I feel maybe aren't shared across other software, making it a little more time intensive to learn. I don't think there's much around that - more options means more of that. **What problems is OriginPro solving and how is that benefiting you?** Originpro is giving me the tools to communicate my research in immediately relatable ways to peers in the field, and giving me tools to greater understand my own results. ### 49.
