"Good comprehensive charting solution"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Highcharts?

It works great with the other plugins and frameworks we use. It can do everything we need it to do and a lot more. We use it on a web application as well as a PWA. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highcharts?

The solution is a little bit pricy and there's also a little bit of a learning curve. It could do better at handling responsive states. Styling, positioning, or adding custom elements to the charts is tricky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Everything is possible with Highcharts"
5/5
What do you like best about Highcharts?

Highcharts API is really flexible based on well designed fully customisable settings which can tweak your charts nitty-gritty details. It also supports responsive design, which means you can define screens size specific configurations and Highcharts will take care of how it will look on different devices. It can be integrated with Angular thanks to its official highcharts-angular wrapper. Almost everything can be achieved on a chart, just need to find the right configuration from their API reference. It is fast and can render millions of datapoint. Last but not least it supports lots of extensions like extra chart type or helpers for easier exporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highcharts?

Its API is really big so easy to get lost in details. You need to play a lot sometimes to find the right combination of settings to achieve the the expected outcome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about Highcharts?

The flexibility of the configuration and the ability to move through the structure of the Highcharts object to ad functionality to the chart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highcharts?

I feel the general public's exposure to the product is very minimal. Making it known that the license covers personal use by including the library in projects would help. Torstein himself uses it for his weather project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazingly customizable ... hard to upgrade versions"
5/5
What do you like best about Highcharts?

Customizability of the options is unparallel amongst competitors. We deal extensively with monthly data so we built an entire library on top of the existing highstock module. Those settings plus the events make it an incredibly flexible system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Highcharts?

There aren't many upgrade guides out there, and help on very difficult issues is hard to find. You get codepens etc for ideal kind of scenarios, but not much content if you're going on a tangent in usage.

The documentation for older versions goes away from their portal. This coupled with how hard it is to upgrade a highly customizable system leads to it becoming a legacy system (technical debt) fairly quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
