### "Awesome highcharts !!"

February 7, 2026

5.0

We have been using the highcharts from last 2 years, it has increased our speed to implement the new charts,when compared to making the charts from the scratch using the d3 js , and it is very flexible api , we can tweak the charts and it has a very good support team, helps to sort our queries when we are facing some issue with it.

Pros

Highcharts is very flexible charting library, Earlier we have used different charting engines like echarts , agcharts, etc but the flexibility highcharts api provide is top noch and it is very easy to implement we just need to prepare our data according to highcharts acceptable formant pass it as options , then thats it chart will be rendering, it is very useful when we have large data points and its support for the bugs and feature is awesome we can log the bugs in the github and they review and provide the fix or workaround so that we can use it , and it has a lot of features which are customisable so it is very useful chart library.

Cons

The things that highcharts need to improve are we need have more access to the chart components for example now the highcharts is driven by the config but if i want to customize some bar then i need to override that specfic function which draws the bar so it is very hard to change, so there should be a way so that we can modify the svgs elements of chart like legend , axis , bars etc. so that we can tweak based on our designs

### "Highcharts (Everviz)"

July 13, 2021

4.0

It was fairly easy to get started, but it was challenging for me to create more complex charts. I had trouble importing my data, so I just entered it manually. I think if they offered more templates to choose from it would be easier for users to create their project.

Pros

I was able to create dynamic charts to embed in html pages. I believe the charts are accessible, so it's much more preferable to use Highcharts to represent a chart, rather than simply embedding a static image (such as a jpeg or png file). I also like the overall look of how the chart appears in the page. You can scroll over points and have the coordinates appear. Very cool!

Cons

I was not able to create a certain kind of chart. Perhaps Highcharts doesn't have the flexibility to create any type of chart, or if they do, I just couldn't figure out how to do it. I wish they had more templates that I could use to start my project.

### "Highcharts for "

July 15, 2020

4.0

Overall, I'd give Highcharts a big thumbs up, their react integration makes it a breeze. It's all dynamic and the charts are indeed quite informative.

Pros

The best part about this software was the ease of using it. I thoroughly enjoyed how well documented their technical documentation site is. I am a front-end engineer and the fact that you can make interactive charts so easily made it a breeze. I have used the version for ReactJS and as long as you follow their documentation, it is pretty easy to create charts and even share them.

Cons

I liked it for creating basic charts, but when I tried creating complex charts, it took me a while. I was trying to create a very customized example for my company's POC, and that took me a lot of understanding. At some points, it got a little frustrating as well. There are still a lot of open issues in their github issues page. Be sure to check if they offer exactly what you are trying to do.

### "It's very useful while making charts in your Project"

October 16, 2019

5.0

I use this to give some information to the user visually beautiful and understandable.

Pros

It has a lot of types of charts with which you can show any kind of analytics or information beautifully.

Cons

It took me a lot of time to figure out and calculate the axis values. I had issues with giving them integer values while it takes only strings.

### "Highcharts Review"

December 28, 2019

5.0

Being not very code savvy, I was able to plug it into my scripts and draw charts around the statistical data I have.

Pros

The ease with which I can tag it in my python scripts to render various charts

Cons

Sometimes to draw a specific kind of graph you need help with code syntax, for which there is no searchable help page

### "Advanced data visualization with Highcharts "

September 18, 2020

5.0

I was very impressed at how it was easy to add high charts graphics to an angular project with very little configuration. The charts are visually stunning.

Pros

My favourite feature about highcharts is how it has built in support for Angular. It makes it easy to import chart components into an Angular project and customize it with little configuration. The library supports a very wide variety of chart types that are very likely to satisfy your requirements. The documentation is very comprehensive and is easy to follow and implement in your own projects

Cons

It is not easy to customize the size and colours of high charts graphs without digging into the styling. other than that, the default visual configurations are usually adept

### "Great product for graph implementation in project."

December 23, 2019

Overall it is good to use the product and will be much better if they reduce pricing.

Pros

This works very effectively, efficient and fast. The UI is pretty much good, attractive and responsive when we compare with other similar products in the market.

Cons

One major drawback is its cost and pricing. It is very expensive when compared to other similar products.

### "Highcharts provide javascript graphics quickly"

September 9, 2020

4.0

I would recommend it to others and use it on future applications.

Pros

We used this javascript library to graphic large financial data for the DoD. We needed different ways to render it and it was easy to use to more cost effective than building.

Cons

We had to pay for it.... But, it's actually good value.. so, no qualms about it. Not a steep learning curve.

### "A complete solution for graph and chart requirement"

May 11, 2019

5.0

Pros

The graphs are charts are very responsive, attractive and much light as compared to other graphs. Don't use any plugins, simple library which can be downloaded easily and much developer friendly code to manipulate in java script and html

Cons

Comparatively high chart are much expensive. Also sometime using highstock become clumsy. Although there is not much bad thing about this but there are other tools available which have smiliar features but less expensive.

The go to charts library i would say is this one, and if you can afford the pro versions are also out there

Pros

I like the most that the charts are very well customizable and powerful in a sense of functionalities and variations of chart types.

Cons

I dont like that sometimes not everything is well documented, you find yourself stuck with a bug and spending time on stackoverflow.
