Overall Satisfaction with Gephi
I have used Gephi personally, for my own research. I have a 2014 paper published in the Journal of Theoretical Biology in which I present a network map plotted with Gephi (Hala and Huggett 2014).
- Excellent construction and visualization of network graphs.
- Excellent 'mapping' of edge weights to network graphs.
- Convenient calculations of graph metrics such as degree and betweenness centrality.
- Maybe an easier way to import data. I had to import source data as a Pajek file.
- Gephi produces very high quality images that are suitable for publication in high tier journals.
I have used Pajek in the past. Gephi has a more user friendly interface and allows better visualization and presentation of network maps.
