### "I've paid and they won't deliver"

April 13, 2018

1.0

If they would deliver the software I paid for I think it would work well, but taking my money and not delivering the product gets 1 stars everywhere.

Pros

The trial version made nice charts. IT seemed like a good fit for our project but the customer service has been zero help.

Cons

They won't give me my license. Nowhere in the ordering process did they say that delivery would be delayed. It has been over 24 hours and I'm still waiting.

Response from Fenopix Technologies

October 17, 2018

Dear Steve, We sincerely apologize that you had to face delays in accessing the product. The scenario was not in our hand. The ordering system is completely automated and you get access once your payment is confirmed. In your case unfortunately your order was on-hold by payment gateway's fraud check algorithms. It was one of the rare occurrences. We did respond back to you and provided manual access to CanvasJS commercial version. We are also in process of changing current payment gateway so that others users never have to face such issue. We would request you to reconsider your review, keeping in mind about all the CanvasJS features and not just this indecent. - Team CanvasJS

### "CanvasJS Trail Evaluation"

September 5, 2018

5.0

CanvasJS Charts in my opinion, is probably one for the best charting solutions out there. They offer a variety of charts, giving the best possible view for your data. Once the charts are up and running and you have a understanding of the charts, it becomes a lot easier to manage and to achieve your desired outcome. I also appreciate the fact that consideration is taken for personal use, and that one isn't loaded with a hefty price tag when using the graphs for personal use.

Pros

The charts are very clean and crisp. Large variety of charts allowing you to find the perfect chart for what you are presenting. Filtering on charts give them a "Live" and Dynamic feel even if you are displaying static data. Quick response to queries.

Cons

Initially the charts are not the easiest to get up and running, making it difficult to evaluate effectively, however this could possibly also be due to my level of experience. The support team seems reluctant to assist you if you are a trail user, which is understandable as they need to make a profit, that said it does restrict you in properly evaluating the software.

### "Nice plugin with a lot of options"

December 27, 2018

5.0

We used CanvasJS for a university project which requires graphing many points (+- 10.000) at quite a fast refresh interval (30 fps), and CanvasJS was able to handle this just fine. It is also very nice that you can change a lot about the design/colors of the graph to make it look the way you like it.

Pros

Many different graph types Very fast, even with large datasets A lot of customization options

Cons

Because of all the options it can be hard sometimes to figure out how to change the thing you want to change (what the property is named)

### "My experience of use CanvasJS Charts"

January 3, 2019

5.0

I was looking tool to build multi graphs at once. Also i needed free trial period. CanvasJS has 1 month trial period, and fully free for non-commercial use.

Pros

Really clearly CanvasJS API. The docs are translated in many languages included my native russian. The biggest pros is free use for non-commercial project.

Cons

I think, pan and zoom functions are not enough interactive.

### "Excellent charts"

July 4, 2019

Again these charts are second to none. This has worked well for a logging output I created and I love it

Pros

These charts are so easy to use and have a beautiful display. The multitude of uses and styles make this the perfect charting software in the world. There’s really nothing better.

Cons

Nothing other than when browsers updated it partially broke but it’s not the fault of CanvasJS.

April 30, 2018

5.0

Pros

Really easy to use, vast variety of graphs to select from. The documentation was easy to read and follow which sped up the development process of our analytics portion of our project.

Cons

The confirmation to use the product from the organization took a little too long as we were pressed for time. It would be better to speed up the process for approving an academic license.
