Overall Satisfaction with MATLAB
It's being used in a project to design GUIs for an ECG. We currently know there are better programs to design user interphases but Matlab suits our needs for this small project.
- Easy to use and detect mistakes
- There's a lot of documentation about almost anything
- It's full of Apps with a wide range of options
- The forums and help platforms are really useful and full of people willing to help
- Great debugger
- GUIs could be better/prettier
- Some of the apps are not well explained or are not as user-friendly as the could be
- There are some port configuration bugs when connecting to Arduino that could be fixed
- It was actually used for an intern project so it had no impact on our business objectives, except when achieving building an ECG
- arduino, geany and Anaconda
Matlab is faster, more complete, easier to use and with better documentation comparing with the previously mentioned programs. I haven't used Anaconda that much, but I felt more comfortable with Matlab rather than using Python for this project specifically. Its coding language is clearly simpler.
