Enhance your computational skills

4.0 4 years ago

Pros:

Any product from MathWorks deserves respect and this app is a great addition to the software that is already installed on your computer. This app helps to work on the same code on the desktop/ laptop, while on the go. It provides wonderful flexibility for assessing and modifying the code , while not being in front of the computer.

Cons:

This tool is not a replacement to your product on your computer. I still feel the main functionality lies on working on the computer; however, this tools helps in supporting the task.

Best choice for IoT beginners

4.0 3 years ago

Comments: The best choice for my Master Degree project, and Professional integration on industry.

Pros:

The low budget projects can be made using this platform given that free tier gives you 4 channels with full functionalities so you can know all the possibilities that the services can provide, also the easy way to connect other 3rd party software and program hardware to communicate to the platform results very handy.

Cons:

Maybe the way that more unique way to display analytics are only useful if you know to program on MATLAB code.
