Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I used plotly chart studio during my role as research assistant. Primarily, my role revolved around processing big data , generating analytics and making visualizations to infer some trends. Being a python developer, I was using plotly's python api which itself is fairly easy to use. However, when I came to know about chart studio, I quickly jumped onto it due to no code feature and beautiful gui to do everything related to visualizations.
Pros and Cons
  • Beautiful user interface (web based for app)
  • Open source and free
  • Connects to any type of data including json, databases, csv
  • Multiple users can concurrently access visualizations
  • No need to refresh visualizations on data change.
  • Lack of customer support
  • Sometimes fails to visualize extremely large datasets ( probably also due to computer resource constraints)
Likelihood to Recommend
[Plotly Chart Studio is] a great tool to make visualizations on a web based portal. For python developers, it can ease of some burden of writing code again and again for the same thing and also refreshing visualizations on old scripts when data changes. All in all, a simple yet effective tool for your report generation and visualization needs[.]

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
Plotly Chart Studio is primarily used by our BI teams to visualize the data in the most effective way. Since all the charts developed within the organization are stored at a single place, one can search and adapt the charts already in the repository rather than always working from the scratch. Also, with the Graphical User Interface, one can simply create charts which can be embedded on websites and dashboards without any support from IT.
Pros and Cons
  • Connects to almost every kind of data source like SQL, Excel, MS Access, flat files and more.
  • Charts get saved to the repository and are re-used by multiple users.
  • No need of manual intervention in order to refresh the charts every time the data gets changed.
  • No mobile apps available.
  • There is no 24x7 web chat support available.
  • Training videos are not available.
Likelihood to Recommend
Plotly Chart Studio is great at creating interactive charts and also maintain a repository of every chart ever created in the organization. Moreover these charts can be searched by other users and used for different purposes. It is also very useful for data science companies as it has APIs for Python, Julia and other languages to create charts within the development environment and then publish to Chart Studio.
