Innova Drilling & Intervention logo

Gigasoft ProEssentials has been an integral part of the Innova Well Seeker application for over 10 years. It's feature rich, easy to implement and by the far the best charting library I have ever used. Support has been first class with the team at Gigasoft responding in a timely manner and always being flexible and willing to implement new features. I couldn't recommend this product highly enough.

I have noticed two other companies that use ProEssentials in their products. Schweitzer Engineering and Square D/Schneider. When looking at demos of their systems last month, I immediately recognized ProEssentials.

We are very happy with the PE graph. It's one of the few things we've bought that actually works as advertised. I gave a demo yesterday and everyone was very impressed with the graph. The application we are writing displays real time telemetry data.

The basic 2D graphs seem to be very stable, and I am already pleased with what I have from the 3D.

Paul FoulgerPetrophysics Advisor, Geoscience & Petroleum Engineering
OakRidge National Lab logo

This ProEssentials is amazing. The graphics are so professional looking, so smooth, and with virtually no help from documentation I was able to get my data plotted in less than 10 minutes by only looking at the example project that accompanies it. The example that is available is indispensable and unlike many example projects I download, it actually works!

Robert StewartSoftware Engineer
AVL List GmbH logo

We are very happy with the way your graph works.

Raman VasumathiSoftware Engineer
CREE logo

You can run the ProE chart and the XXXX graph side by side with the same data. Load 600k data and watch the XXXX graph slow way down compared to ProEssentials.

Brian DeJongSoftware Engineer
OMICRON Lab logo

We are very satisfied and happy that all major functionalities outlined in our specification are now working fine. We fully trust in your excellent support for the future.

Bernhard BaumgartnerBusiness Manager

The output from this tool blows away all others. I'll be using it to trend nuclear chemistry data over time. After looking at the alternatives, the graphs produced by ProEssentials are exactly what I was looking for.

Richard DavisGCR & Associates
Ease Solutions logo

The customer was impressed by the performance of the chart. We had to beat a similar product which is really fast, but thanks to ProEssentials, we’re now faster than them, and was even able to display more data on the graph.

Tran Ngoc VanSoftware Engineer
SAIC, Inc. logo

You guys have been answering our questions quickly since our team began using Gigasoft's ProEssentials a few months ago and we truly appreciate it. And because of your product's quality, vast features, and good service we may be buying even a few more licenses as our team grows in the future.

Christopher LudkaSoftware Lead

Gigasoft's support team gives us just what we need with the minimum of fuss.

Charlie CurtisSoftware Engineer
Analytical Graphics, Inc. logo

Here's some feedback on why we chose ProEssentials over about 20 other packages that we looked at. Ability to handle large amounts of data — we routinely do XY scatter plots with 100,000 points. Many other packages simply can't handle this amount. Speed is of the essence. Good date/time support for the X axis. Support for decent looking polar plots. Publication quality output. Our customers often take the graphs right out of our application and include them in powerpoints or conference papers.

Tom JohnsonAnalytical Graphics, Inc.

I just wanted to let you know how impressed I have been with your tech support over the years. I have never called your tech support and not received a quick and accurate answer on how to accomplish a certain task.

Jeff WilkesManager of Information Technology
PHDWin logo

We have approximately 3000 engineering workstations with our PHDWin application deployed around the world — so we are getting a ton of feedback on this. We are known in the industry for our superior graphics. So, that means you have done a great job with ProEssentials. Thanks for putting out a really great product.

Gary GonzenbachPHDWin
Author Code Magazine logo

I have been very impressed with ProEssentials. When you need to make a lot of data make sense in a single chart, it can't be beat. And you''l be hard pressed to find a publisher who takes more pride in his product, believing it is the best and working hard to make that true.

Don KielyAuthor, MVP, MCSD, MSDE, senior technology consultant
Asset Management Consulting Limited logo

So far we have been very impressed with the controls and the technical support.

Chris BeedieSoftware Engineer
Probe Software logo

I just want to report that although Pro Essentials has a decent learning curve (considering how many options there are), but having worked through some conversions I am pleased to say that it is an excellent graphics engine and the quality and appearance is beautiful.

John J. DonovanPresident
Melissa logo

I am really impressed from the engineering and performance of ProEssentials. I decided to spend enough time to find the right charting component. Your component is the best - the programming interface is very simple and saves a lot of development time. The component is very fast. Simply execellent product!

Michael ShuSoftware Engineer
Pipeline Systems, Inc. logo

Thanks so much for a great product: we've been using it since 1995, and it has never failed us - does what is says it will do (can't say that about everyone else). And it makes us look good: never failed to find a way to show whatever-the-customer-wants on our graphs. Great documentation, too!

John MartinsonSoftware Engineer
Siemens logo

The more I work with your product, the more I have come to appreciate its power. We've talked about little things and minor annoyances, but my hat's off to you. This IS a powerful package and your support has been superb. You may have my personal recommendation any time. That does not come easily!

Doug SlocumSiemens

This is a killer product — very powerful, very fast, very slick. I'm impressed — and so are our customers. The software oscilloscope constructed with it is a joy to use. Thanks for making me look so good!

Paul SilvisPacific Scientific
Covéa logo

Most organizations, like ours, aren't fortunate enough to have expertise in areas such as charting theory. After weeks of research and objective competitive analysis, we selected GigaSoft's ProEssentials. By working closely with GigaSoft in a product requirement give-and-take fashion, they were able to accommodate every one of our charting and graphing component requirements inside their standard, off-the-shelf, fully tested and supported software product, all for the cost of eight full developer licenses.

Roy DyerSenior Project Manager

I just wanted to let you know that you have an excellent tool. Our group is using it in a way you probably didn't envision. We are creating a DLL and calling it from an Active Server Page. We are passing data via ADO into the DLL and storing the resulting Graph in JPEG format in RAW format in an Oracle Table.

Chris PrindleSoftware Engineer

My client is extremely happy with the results so far; so much of what they wanted me to do is already done (data export, graphics cut & paste, etc). I'll definitely be using it on future projects that require graphing.

Evelio HernandezSoftware Engineer
South Florida University logo

Thank you very much. It worked, and it was quite easy. I guess the issue is that your graphs are so powerful that there is a lot to know in order to use them well (just like for any powerful tool). The documentation and examples are excellent and I am wading through them. I have owned Proessentials Pro since 2002 and I am now buying latest version.

Robert L. Norton P.E.Milton Prince Higgins II Distinguished Professor
Workhorse Technologies logo

Thanks again for an excellent graphing tool! I find that it is very fast at displaying the graph, even on a slower machine. The best feature though, is the exporting capabilities that are pre-packaged for your end-users. It slices, it dices, it julienne's ie-export as comma delimited data, as graphic. Seriously, it is an excellent tool.

I write programs for testing automotive parts with HPVEE and everyone in my user group has recommended your software.

Robert RaisSoftware Engineer

First of all I must thank you again for the wonderful product. Everyone is so impressed, that it looks as if it's going to generate sufficient work to keep me busy for 12 months or more.

Robert Panton

I would like to take the opportunity to say that I'm really pleased with your product and it's at least a 100% improvement on the graphics software I was previously using.

John Humphreys

I am very happy with your graph routines. I normally end with 100-200 subarrays within my dataarray. I made a horizontal scrollbar on top of the graph and every time I move the scroll cursor I call the plot function and can scroll through the data — it is quite fast.

Lars Thomsen, MS PhD

Thanks for the prompt response. By the way, my program, although still alpha version, has wowed the client, and I've given ProEssentials a plug on the delphi32 forum. Great product!

Richard Ulrich

I had the opportunity to get to grips with your product. Product and in particular the manual are of excellent quality which unfortunately is found rarely in computer products nowadays. Congratulations!

Rolf Winter

I love ProEssentials: Our acid test for a graphics package was whether I could make it draw a psychometric chart in less than a day's work. ProEssentials passed!

Jim Deutch

Without a doubt, ProEssentials is the BEST graphing lib I've come across in many years of programming.

David Glick

I'm using the ProEssentials product for a trending program, and it's really good. It does everything I ever even dreamed about.

Dick Monahan

I have tried several other charting packages, and ProEssentials seems to be the superior product by far.

Eoin Howlett

By the way, your product is fantastic. It is easy to integrate, and it looks very professional. Great product!

Bob Sperling

I have just about finished converting a complex DOS program that had about 10K lines of code and took 3 months to program into Delphi. It has taken about 40 hours to add ProEssentials and uses about 300 lines of code. Thanks for your help and a great product.

Pete

I wish all support was as prompt and as good. I would just like to take the opportunity to say how impressed and pleased I am with ProEssentials. It does exactly what I need and a lot more besides. It is dead easy to use and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Keep up the good work!

Steve

Hey your product looks great! And you certainly know how to have the right kind of web site — easy to find, easy to see what you need. I saw that several of the products that I use in Civil Engineering use the ProEssentials graphing objects. So I think to myself, let me give it a go. Engineers just are like that!
