## Reviews

### "MATLAB Review" — 4.0/5

> **Chetan** | *18 September 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: MATLAB is based on mathematical and physics equation's which makes simulation and modeling very easy task.It is most widely used tool in the robotics industry.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes simulation takes more than 24 hours to run and generate result.
> 
> I had used MATLAB for around 3 years for modelling and simulation of flight control systems of aircraft.

### "GearUp Market Data Analysis for Real Estate Teams." — 5.0/5

> **Ignacio** | *23 September 2025* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Users enjoy MATLAB's robust data analysis and easy dashboard customization, making it simple to follow local market trends and compare investment results easily.
> 
> **Cons**: Agency teams further elaborated that data collection on industries requires additional effort, and fewer report templates require additional effort to make outputs property management relevant.
> 
> The use of MATLAB allowed teams to make rapid valuations of rental trends and provide clean charts to be presented to customers in briefings, thereby creating confidence and guiding investment decisions.

### "Matlab Losing crown to Python, but I still love it." — 3.0/5

> **Tam** | *24 January 2025* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, had a large library for engineer, used to be the language of choice for all EE engineers.
> 
> **Cons**: Matlab is closed source, that's how it lost the crown to python.
> 
> I still like Matlab, especially all my old codes are in Matlab, lot of built-in Math functions which makes it convenience.

### "How using matlab allowed us to do unbounded creative data modelling." — 5.0/5

> **Carla** | *21 June 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We do some weird things in marketing, but we run deep data through MATLAB  especially when we are looking at client ROI models, or predicting ad performance over time. It is simply the best for custom analysis with its rich scripting capabilities.
> 
> **Cons**: It’s not so user-friendly to beginners, and doesn’t come cheap in terms of licensing. Definitely a power-user tool.
> 
> It allowed us to provide statistical confidence when we showed the stakeholders complex models. We’ve used it to demonstrate campaign value and create predictive tools that are connected to client KPIs.

### "Data analysis and Signal processing made easier" — 5.0/5

> **Bashir** | *28 October 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to visualise data using MATLAB. There are a lot of resources and tutorials available online for learning MATLAB. It comes with various built-in libraries which can be used directly in our code.
> 
> **Cons**: MATLAB requires high computational resources for running because of which it becomes slow sometimes. Also, as the size of the software is large, it takes up a lot of storage space.
> 
> I use MATLAB for analysing data and finding out patterns in the datasets as it works well with large datasets. It is also useful for digital signal and image processing.
