Perhaps the most comprehensive tool ever
I strongly suggest this software to all of my colleagues who are still using other widely known spreadsheet programs. When it comes to graphing and conducting regression analysis, Origin stands out as the superior choice by a considerable margin.
Avantages
One standout feature is the effortless process of creating graphs from data. You simply input your data select the desired columns and click corresponding graph button and that all there is to it. Generating numerous graphs and fine tuning them is a quick and efficient process.
Inconvénients
OriginPro has a steeper learning curve and usability is not as intuitive when compared to other software. In particular I find the data transformation through equations to be less user friendly. However overtime you become more accustomed to it and it becomes easier to navigate.

Great data visualization software
Data reduction is done on Excel/Matlab, but if I’m presenting the data, I use Origin for plotting and presentations. Nice easy curve fitting app.
Avantages
Great flexible plotting tool with some nice apps
Inconvénients
Curve fitting is limited and cannot define the exact form/coefficient values. User interface can definitely be improved.

GUI lost its way
I do data plotting and analysis. Anything from 2D graphs to matrices, 3D plots, spectral analysis and fitting.
Avantages
Powerful tool included within the options on data analysis and data plot management
Inconvénients
1. Its interface and menus. Origin has grown massively in ways to customize every possible feature on the menu, let it be data fit or plotting. It produced very complicated and difficult to navigate menus with mirriad of tick boxes, fields, sub-options etc. Some of this make process of using software very painful.
2. Milti peak spectral fit of spectra with difficult base lines.

OriginPro is what you need for scientific data analysis
I used OriginPro for regression analysis and ANOVA tests. During my bachelor I processed tons of kinetic data and physics experiments where I needed the best correlation and interpretation. However, it has many other features that I never studied and made it look complex . I would love Origin had a cheaper and user-friendly version of the software with limited features since not everybody uses all of them. I would also suggest them to add explanatory messages for the feature and parameters you're using.
Avantages
I really like the Fitting feature to perform Regression Analysis, the ANOVA tests and Hypothesis testing. I can obtain a lot of mean comparisons (Tukey, Fischer, Bonferroni) which I needed for statistics program in college. OriginPro is very versatile, I've used it for chemistry, physics, statistics and math and never needed an extra software to perform data analysis.
Inconvénients
OriginPro is not easy to learn and use. The interface is not as intuitive as other software. Specifically I don't like how to transform data through equations. Definitely the data selection to perform analysis is weird and I've never seen this way to select data before. But you get used to it and it's easier with time.

The best tool for making graphs
OriginPro is and will be my first choice when creating graphs.
Avantages
The best feature is how easy you can make a graph from data. You just add the data, select columns and press the needed graph button and that is it. It takes very little time to make a lot of graphs and adjust them,
Also, I love how much of graphs you can adjust. Everything on the graph is adjustable.
Additionally, Origin has all the mathematical tools that you will need for data analysis. Adding that you can automate everything. Origin is the most powerful and user friendly tool for graphical data analysis.
Also, I like that Origin can be used for data storage. You can keep an entire project in one file.
Inconvénients
What bugs me the most, is that the plotted graph style is very much outdated. The graph looks just ugly and it feels like from the 90s. It needs serious update because I can not show them in a business meeting.

My review about OriginPro
Overall origin is very useful software that I recommend to each one who wants to be more professional in analyzing data.
Avantages
The way that origin display my results are very effecient and formal. And it is very valuable while using it in sophisticated complex calculations. As I am a Master student using origin in every laboratory report analysis is very mandatory. It short cuts more of steps than using excel.
Inconvénients
Origin is a bit difficult for a new user so it is not simple as excel. But in research writing origin is very important and active in initiating scientific graphs.

Excellent Package for Data Analysis and Visualization
I have been using OriginPro since 2017. As a researcher working primarily on Operations Research and Statistics I have to plot graphs regularly. OriginPro with its amazing features and user friendly interface is my go-to tool for data visualization and analysis.
Avantages
It offers amazing features like curve-fitting and 3-D graphs compared to other plotting softwares. Editing the plots in this software is very easy, it provides a variety of colours, dotted lines in the plot edit, which is very helpful.
Inconvénients
I personally did not find any cons, but it would have been nicer if they extended the trial period for more days for academicians.

Working on Origin2019b
Avantages
I have been been working on Origin for more than a decade, starting back with version 6.0. For comparison I also tried other comparable software like MS Excel, Grapher or SigmaPlot and in my opinion nothing really beats Origin. The software seems very complicated for beginners and definitely is designed for a serious statistical, etc. work but few hours spent deciphering features pays back multiple times. It's all about data, data, data...Variability of predefined templates for various types of graphs is large. In addition convenience and freedom in manipulating them to your own needs/way is just fantastic and simple. I very often fit data and have to apply my own customized functions that can be easily build in the Origin code and stored as a function file and used when needed. This is very convenient.
Inconvénients
- Frequent upgrades to a new versions that do not add much changes to a core features.
- complicated manipulation of appearance of heat maps. I have troubles with getting smooth graphs from noisy data as I cannot find option to artificially smooth maps without modifying underlying data except changing graph "speed mode" (and that is not strictly map smoothing).
-More specific: restructured menu in version 2019b. It looks like many functions I could open with click of right mouse button just on the graph are gone (e.g. layer contents, etc.). All takes more time now as I have to find them in the upper menu. Could you bring them back?
Réponse de OriginLab
Hello Dariusz,
Thank you very much for the review!
Regarding your specific comments:
Heatmap: Can you please send a project to us so we can see the issue and try help you?
Smoothing of noisy data: Again, please send us a project.
Right-click context menu: Yes, we did rearrange because some menus were too long and users with smaller laptop screens were running into issues. Specifically for Layer Contents, you can press the F12 shortcut key on a graph to bring it up.
Also, in versions 2019 and higher, we have a Start button on the bottom left where you can type
m <search phrase>
to see all the menu options related to your search phrase.

Origin Pro
I used Origin for all the graphs embedded in my articles and proposals.
Avantages
Technically this is the best software that blends data representation (graphs) and data processing (fitting, modeling) capabilities.
I like the quality of graphs and the flexibility selecting the font size, color, type.
I do enjoy the possibility to fit the data and an improved simplified Basic (or elementary C) would be welcomed. Some issues with exponents and special functions may be noticed in some (few) cases.
Inconvénients
1. Imagine that you opened two Origin programs. Each has a different graph and you want to add another graph from the other origin file (opened). While it is possible to paste the figure you have no control over the transferred figure. I guess that as we are playing more and more frequently with complex graphs this may become an issue.
2. I have some data that can be represented as columns with numbers. I have three of them but I have a bad time playing with 3D graphs because: 1. Simple selecting the columns as X, Y, and Z does not generate a 3D graph. 2. It is not intuitive to move from one 3D graph to another type of 3 D Graph.
3. Simulations are a huge problem, mainly if the range of parameters is broad. Sometimes I have to drive the simulations in order to get the best outcome. Some improvement may be important.
4. We are starting to play with complex and artistic graphs. I do suggest to add at least a Microsoft Paint as a component of the software and if possible to keep these figures active.
5. Not very happy with a new file name.... however, I will survive. Technically, please avoid doing this frequently.

Origin Pro is a great tool for biomechanic analysis
As I say before It allow me to apply complex algorithms in other way I couldn´t apply. I want to learn LabTalk programming to have more options, but this will be in the future.
In general terms I am very happy with Origin. I use it almost every day to analyze graphs, apply filters.
I thinks it is a powerful tool for biomechanichs analysis (I am also very happy with the apps specifics for this aim, such as C3D importer, EMG analysis tool, etc.).
Also the developer of the apps help you a lot. I talk with two of them and they give me a lot of ideas and solutions to my problems.
Avantages
I worked for a biomechanic lab. Before using OriginLab I try to use to use other softwares such as GNU Octave, R, Python to do signal analysis (finding peaks, apply filters such as Butterworth Filter, Savitzky-Golay, etc.) but I am not very good in programming and I have a lot of troubles. OriginLab has made my life easier as apply this filter is really easy. I also use statistic capabilities of this softwares and create beautiful graphs for presentations or manuscripts.
Inconvénients
I use it in an old computer and I have some troubles with some functions. For example I couldn´t open a project directly and I should open a new project and drag and drop the project into it… In my new computer I do not have this problem. Other trouble I had was that sometimes Ctrl + Z didn´t run well when creating graph. I save the graph in every new step to not loss information. And I also have little problems with the copy and paste arrays of number from and to excel (sometimes I have to do twice). But this problems where minor problems compared with all the things I have do with Origin. It is helping me a lot in my PhD.

OriginPro for Research and Data Analysis
Overall, the product has been outstanding over the years. The cons are reasons that it is hard to justify asking my boss to make a large scale purchase of the software for my department. A fixed cost purchase is much more appealing for my team compared to yearly leasing.
Avantages
I was introduced to Origin as a graduate student over 20 years ago. It became a common part of my research analysis. I first started using it for simple plots, and then expanded to scripting to automate plotting. Put simply, it build the best publication quality graphs.
Inconvénients
There are a few cons of Origin. (i) It is very memory-hungry for what it does. Even with a Xeon processor and 32GB of RAM, it can be be slow to load. (ii) The data import is much improved compared to what was developed many years ago. That said, it is still clunky at times-especially for loading excel. (iii) When I have introduced this software to students, a common comment is that it is only available on a Windows platform. Many students use Mac or Linux.

Replace Excel and Google Sheets
In my work I must capture hours of data for static electricity on equipment. This data is sampled at a rate of 100ms. The amount of data can be 100k to 300k records (rows). I attempted to use Sheets to break up the data and organize it in the fashion I required. It became difficult to work with when adding new data. I then tried to use Excel to perform the same action and create graphs. Excel could handle the data calculations, however, it required formulas in the cells and back end macros. This was time consuming. Additionally Excel was not consistent with graphs. OriginPro solved all of my issues. Importing a data sample of 200k records would take me 15-20minutes to complete the import and processing in Excel. The same process can be completed in under 5 minutes with OriginPro. I am new to OriginPro and have yet to take full advantage of all the features offered.
Avantages
What I like most is the ability to provide one formula and/or script for an entire column. This is a great time saver. In Excel or Google Sheets I would have to either put a formula in every row for a specific column or write macros to perform calculations if a cell contained data. With OriginPro I can enter a single formula at the top of the column to handle all rows in that column. Best part of this is I do not need to make adjustments when adding more rows.
Inconvénients
When zooming in on a graph, it does not center on the window and there is no way to center or pan. I have to zoom back out then zoom in on the area I want to see. It would be nice to have an easy method to return to 100%.
Réponse de OriginLab
Hi James,
Thank you for the review!
Regarding your comment about zooming, you are referring to page level zoom which can be controlled by the drop-down for zoom percentage in the Standard toolbar, but also can be done more easily by just holding the A key and using the mouse scroll wheel. To revert back to 100%, you can use the shortcut key CTRL+W.
Note that you can also zoom and pan inside the layer to change axes range easily as well. All such shortcuts are documented here:

Function fitting tools provided with origipro
While I was setting my fitting functions as well as doing data analysis, the staff you I contacted through chat were really helpful .I was able to solve many confusions by just chatting with them.This may be not directly related to this review but I really appreciate originlab staff for their kind support.
Avantages
I used originlab 8.5 for months and recently started originpro. It's very easy to use as it comes with a wide range of fitting functions.The reason I am really impressed is the way it helps to build the user defined functions.I was fed up of trying many software and programming tools, as I haven't a strong knowledge on programming.Then I got to know about originpro. But I couldn't find an inbuilt function which fits my purpose there.Then I followed the online instructions in originlab site and wrote simple code myself within a short period of time and unbelievably it worked.
Inconvénients
As per my experience so far I used Originpro for integration,differentiation,non-linear function fitting,smoothing raw data and model fitting etc.The thing I least like is the "initial guess estimation step" in function fitting.I noticed that the final result is significantly depends on the values we feed as initial guesses.Sometimes it's hard to guess all the variables.I believe parameter initialization codes can be set to solve this issue.But the explanation in the originlab site is not quite helpful for me.

Origin makes data analysis from the lab much easier
Currently I am using Origin for analyzing data gathered from complex characterization techniques such as SEM, FTIR and other material analysis tools in the Chemical and Material Laboratory. The software allows exporting from data sources such as excel and can be used to create charts and graphs using all or selected data. After knowing your way through the software, you will also be able to analyse the data gathered and come to quick conclusions. It didnt take me too long to learn the functions of the software (have more t learn!) but i believe the interface needs to be more user friendly. for instance the layout can be changed to make it easier to find your way through the software. However I recommend this software especially to scientists who need data analysis for their research and experimental work.
Avantages
The software allows large number of raw data to be converted to graphs/charts very efficiently and effectively and carry out advanced statistical calculations. Which is very helpful in my area of work.
Inconvénients
The interface. I would say, it is not the most user friendly interface I have used.

Origin for Chemistry Research
I had difficulties with some of the things I was doing and the customer service is great. Very responsive (my problem was solved within a day) and lots of recommendations on the solution to my issue.
Avantages
The ease with which I can import my data. All instruments save and export in different file formats and Origin allows you to import all sorts of file types so you don't have to worry about having a particular format or converting it before using.
Inconvénients
Sometimes adding data from different worksheets to the same graph or plot is difficult and I think this is something that should be improved.

OriginPro Review
Avantages
Origin is the Cadillac of data processing software. It is fast, offers many analysis features and generates publication-ready plots in a matter of minutes. It's easy to process large amounts of data and batch analyze them. The nonlinear fitting feature is the most versatile of any data processing software.
Inconvénients
While generally easy to use, considering the complexity, some workflows are not optimal and require lot of searching and clickthroughs.
While Origin also supports many scripting features, this means that the user has to learn quite a lot of syntax.

Excellent Data Analysis and Visualization Package
I really love this software and have been using it as my preferred data analysis package since 2001 when I started my professional career. Previously I had used Excel, Igor and Axum (not extinct). I wish I really had time to fully leverage the amazing power available, but like most users I suspect I only utilize 10% of the capability.
Avantages
The statistical analysis, curve fitting and regression built ins are outstanding. I also utilize the multi-axis graphing capability which is excellent. I really appreciate the customer service as well, they are good at helping unravel even complex needs into relatively simple steps in the software. Once additional gem is the built in data digitization for Cartesian and Polar coordinate images.
Inconvénients
This software has so many features it is mind boggling, so it is sometimes very hard to find what you are looking for. In addition, I find the array math based formulas and calculations difficult since I learned data analysis in Excel and still use that for management and business analysis. that makes jumping back into the array programming difficult when I first switch back to Origin. Origin has added Excel like formulation to the software, but I haven't figured out how to set that feature up as yet. I really need to digitize circular plots that are non-polar coordinate.

OriginPro is the sweet spot between professional custom-coded analysis and amateur spreadsheeti...
We are using OriginPro mainly for graphing and analysis for intravital microscopy , autocorrelation analysis and statistics.
Avantages
OriginPro has very powerful analysis capabilities built-in, and these are now further expanded due to the Apps feature. In principle, all of these capabilities can be written as scripts in Python/Matlab, but the convenience and speed of OriginPro is unparalleled.
The algorithms for guessing the initial values for the non-linear fitting functions in OriginPro are some of the best and reliable that I have come across.
Inconvénients
OriginPro has an extremely dated interface and it is hard to keep track of multiple data sets in the folder structure.
The ability to manipulate cell data within the cell - eg: removing non-numeric characters from "23 kg" to obtain numeric 23 would be useful.

Origin Pro - for Fluorescent biological recordings and data analysis
I am working on - drug discovery and development screening of biological targets.
More specifically, doing fluorescent calcium and voltage recordings on human stem-cell assays.
Origin for me - is the best software package to process and analyze the collected data - form human stem cell-derived neurons and cardiomyocytes.
Avantages
I like the possibility to comprehensively analyze the recorded data.
A lot of possibilities to do the statistical evaluation of the collected data, then do the fitting and generate the relevant plots for the presentations.
Inconvénients
The most difficult part to figure out - is to get the information about all relevant features of OriginPro.
When performing the analysis - I have several times faced the problem that - there is a better way to do it, and I didn't know about it.

Solid graphing program that produces high quality graphs
I have been using the program for perhaps 15 years. I use the yearly license option which gives me the yearly updates. All updates are backwards compatible meaning you can open old projects with new software. I have literally make 5-10,000 graphs in that time frame. I will continue to use until I am done publishing.
Avantages
I like the flexibility in graph output, lots of options in size, resolution, picture format, compression. One you set up your first graph it is so quick and easy to produce similar ones.
Inconvénients
It can be difficult to set up a new type a graph though the help is there is you can find it. It takes experiementation to figure out what those newly used graphing options mean and how it affects the output.
