Well documented and what-you-mean-is-what-you-get oriented.

Pros:

  • lots of features and options
  • easy to use (graph defined by simple text)
  • works fast most of the time
  • well documented
  • well supported (developer gives fast feedback on questions in a friendly explanatory manner)
  • maintainable (bugs are fixed over time, new release are coming out)

Cons:

  • no support for Gantt chart
  • no full support for Windows (unable to build some kinds of graphs due to lack of libraries)
  • no support for multithreading, only one core is used (and it's impossible to fix it somehow in future due to complicated codebase)
  • some kinds of input data end up with crash or nearly infinite time to finish (stess testing would be benefitial)

Overall: amazing application!

Not so great for illustrations, slides, animations with random graphs.

Nodes can move. Edges can move.

What is Graphviz?

Graphviz is open source graph visualization software. Graph visualization is a way of representing structural information as diagrams of abstract graphs and networks. It has important applications in networking, bioinformatics, software engineering, database and web design, machine learning, and in visual interfaces for other technical domains.

Features

The Graphviz layout programs take descriptions of graphs in a simple text language, and make diagrams in useful formats, such as images and SVG for web pages; PDF or Postscript for inclusion in other documents; or display in an interactive graph browser. Graphviz has many useful features for concrete diagrams, such as options for colors, fonts, tabular node layouts, line styles, hyperlinks, and custom shapes.
