"A Powerful and Versatile System"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

Mathematica is a great environment to create quick prototypes or to explore data with its powerful built in functions. Once you are very familiar with the language, it makes it very easy to pull big insights from data. It also has a simple to use documentation center, which allows you to see examples of every built in function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

Mathematica has a rather larger learning curve and it can take a time commitment up front to get up and running. It is also very difficult to build your own documentation for self-built functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mathematica powerfult calculator tool"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

When needing to verify a long equation you can use their calculator tool. The software will show step by step of hot they got to the solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

Some parts of the solution steps are not show, but implied. It would be helpful to expand you those steps if the student is still learning what is being shown as an implied step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great way to understand concepts with visualization"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

My favorite feature is visualizing equations with graphs. 3D graphs are such a cool way to see what it does.

Other than that: ability to write scripts to automate is amazing. Really powerful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

Learning curve is a little steep initially which might scare people but if they can stick to it and learn then it's a beautiful tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile and user-friendly"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

Implements a wide range of mathematical functions and the interface is easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

License price slightly on the higher side. However, it is justified for moderate to heavy users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Super-Powerful Computational Software"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

The thing that I like the most about Wolfram Mathematica is that it is incredibly versatile. It handles almost all of the facets of technical computing starting form simple algebraic equations, solving ordinary and partial differential equations to image/ audio processing and machine learning. Moreover, Mathematica also has incredibly powerful graphing and modeling capabilities. The interface is aesthetically pleasing and intuitive. The ability to add hierarchical cells is a big advantage and allows to format notebook in a beautiful way. Regarding the features, Wolfram Mathematica has almost everything you need. Moreover, it's ability to be integrated with C++, Python and other languages, makes it an exceptionally powerful application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

The only thing that I dislike about Mathematica, is the fact that there is a certain learning curve, as Wolfram is a very vast language and it may take time to learn and use it comfortably. Other than that, there is nothing I dislike about Wolfram Mathematica, as it perfectly suits my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mathematica Review"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

Mathematica is a tool that every company that deals with complex mathematical computation should have. The software has a user friendly interface but only people who have mathematical knowledge can handle it effectively. Mathematica can solve all mathematical problems no matter how complex they are.The software can also be used in learning institution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

I have used the software for many years since i was a student, but for sure i can't see any disadvantage of using the software and thus why i gave all stars. Its an amazing tool for mathematician and statisticians. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Mathematica Review"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

The software save time due to its ability to handle complex problems withing a short time

The software have a friendly user interface only if you are an expert.

Offers accurate results within a short time.

The support team is fine and the would give you a reply as soon as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

The software can only be used and understood by only experts. The software is expensive and only large research firms can afford to buy the license. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It's truly a gem if you do science"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

Mathematica is my main software to verify my derivation and to make quick plots. It contains a large database of the useful special mathematical functions, which sometimes can be found only in manual books. More importantly, it has the identities associated with the equations, allowing to simplify the expressions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

Despite it being an advance software, it sometimes has difficulty processing simple functions. This is especially true when dealing with complex numbers with both real and imaginary parts. Mathematica got confused with some common assumptions and would produce over-complicated results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Notebook Features for early programming leaners"
What do you like best about Mathematica?

It has interactive features useful for novice learners. You can execute command and see results immediately just like Jupyter and R Markdown Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mathematica?

Less used among the industries and hence at some point you have to switch to R or Python Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
