## Overview

### Key benefits of Highcharts

All our charting libraries work with any back-end database or server stack. Data can be given in any form, including CSV, JSON or loaded and updated live. Wrappers for most popular languages, such as .Net, PHP, Python, R, and Java, as well as iOS, and Android, and frameworks like Angular, Vue and React, are available from Highcharts or our community.&#10;&#10;Highcharts offers an accessible interactive chart solution to empower people with disabilities. Each Highcharts license includes our Accessibility module and a flexible sonification API. The Accessibility module allows you to create charts as accessible as possible, whereas the sonification API helps you support multiple ways to bring data to life with sound. Visit our Accessibility Portal for more information.&#10;&#10;Intelligent responsiveness goes beyond fitting the chart to the dimensions of its container, but places non-graph elements such as labels, legends and headings in the most optimal location automatically.&#10;Multi-touch gesture support allows for a native experience on mobile and touch screens. Single touch-drag for data inspection, multi-touch for zooming, and more.&#10;&#10;Thanks to the integration of TypeScript declarations, the Highcharts NPM package allows type checking for most Highcharts options and functions, including auto-complete code with integrated documentation for TypeScript-capable editors like Visual Studio Code.&#10;&#10;The largest developer community of any premium charting tool on Github, StackOverflow, and other forums is eager to offer additional assistance, platform-specific implementation advice and inspiration when you need it. In addition, we have dozen dedicated support engineers monitoring our forums, StackOverflow, GitHub and support emails.&#10;&#10;With annotations, developers may describe charts or data points by drawing simple shapes and text anywhere on the canvas or tethered to specific data points. Alternatively, the annotation module includes an API to build user interfaces, such as buttons, toolbars and dialogues, enabling end-users to place their own annotations on a chart. Placement and visibility of annotations intelligently respond to canvas/screen size at run-time.&#10;&#10;When your need to render thousands or millions of datapoints in the browser, our WebGL-powered boost module delivers speed that leaves Plotly, dygraphs and other performance-focused charting libraries in the dust.&#10;&#10;With the exporting module enabled, your users can export the chart to PNG, JPG, PDF or SVG format at the click of a button, or print the chart directly from the web page.&#10;&#10;With Highcharts, source data can be post-processed in the client in order to improve the user experience. From version 8 and onward, you may enable marker clusters to your scatter series type of charts, and chose from 3 clustering algorithms. Another nice data processing feature is the ability to sort data, regardless of whether the data source is sorted.&#10;&#10;For all license types, including the free, non-commercial licenses, you are allowed to download the source code, inspect it, and make your own edits.&#10;&#10;Do you want to use Highcharts for a personal website, a school site or a non-profit organization? Just get yourself a free, non-commercial license. For commercial websites and projects, we offer flexible License and Pricing options, including special pricing for startups.

## Reviews

### "Awesome highcharts \!\!" — 5.0/5

> **Mehafooz** | *February 7, 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **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
> 
> 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.

### "Highcharts (Everviz)" — 4.0/5

> **Suzanne** | *July 13, 2021* | Design | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **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.
> 
> 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.

>

### "Highcharts for" — 4.0/5

> **Mona** | *July 15, 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **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.
> 
> 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.
