A Good Tool To Show Detailed Research.
Overall, Google Charts has been great for me, especially when presenting my data to colleagues and even during presentations to larger groups. The chart types and graph types they provide are high quality and the visuals are very detailed. If you have not used Google Charts before, then I highly recommend you to check it out, I am quite sure a lot of people will be pleasantly surprised!
PROSLike other Google products, Google charts is just magnificent, you can easily share the charts and graphs you make to your colleagues quickly and efficiently via email or even through websites. The platforms sharing feature is very effective and the collaboration and integration possible with other Google tools allows the user to customize and create detailed charts and graphs for in-depth analysis of data. Overall the compatibility that Google Charts offers is fantastic and unlike other tools out there, there is no need for any extra plugins or features to be added to the existing software.
CONSIn the past, I have had some problems exporting final copies of data, I am not sure if it is due to the file type, or the software itself, but at times it did throw off my work flow. The software itself is not hard to use or learn, however Google would greatly benefit and attract more users if they provided more resources to users who are not as tech savvy!

Real-time Data Visualization collected from throughout your organization
Google Charts helps us provide graphics for intra-company presentations, where data can be quickly assembled and graphed in order to shed light on trends, ideas, or capabilities pertaining to opinions or data. There's not hard-and-fast way to use Google Charts, but we have found that it is a comfortable and capable way to express data visualization for many different situations.
PROSI love that Google Charts is so easily customized. I can show the amount of data downloaded on a weekly basis in a bar chart, or I could just as easily throw onto a shared screen the results of a company-wide poll on what's we want for catering next week. With this much ability, Charts is a fun and effective method of showing everyone their personal analytics.
CONSGoogle Charts is hard to make very precise plots on. The axis configuration options are limited, the colorbars are typically set automatically, and the chart plot size and line shape/weight is often lacking in options. The surface role of the software is to show, not to explain.
Reason for choosing Google Charts
Panoply had rigorous input requirements that we all got tired of meeting.
Reasons for switching to Google Charts
Matlab plots were tedious to create.

The best and most capable free software I have ever used
My overall experience with google charts has been amazing. I used to create all my charts in Microsoft Excel until I discovered Google Charts, and I am completely stuck with it now. The ease of customizing my work and sharing it directly from source with my colleagues has been a welcome change from the drag of doing the same things with excel.
PROSLike most google products, one of the best aspects of Google Charts is how extremely easy it is to setup and get comfortable using. Having come from a Microsoft Excel background, my learning curve literally took me about 3 minutes. And oh, the best feature of Google Charts has to be that its free and still manages to outperform almost all its rival products.
CONSI often do not like to register any complaints about free-to-use software that are able to perform fairly well. And google charts does more than perform fairly, it is absolutely awesome. My only suggestion would be to create an offline version with the same full range of functionality.
Reasons for switching to Google Charts
The range of charts and customizability of google chart outputs had me sold from the first demo video I watched on Youtube.

Google Charts Review
One of the main benefits and business problem Google Charts has resolved for us is, using Google Charts to track time, creating charts for different variations within our company. Google Charts has greatly increased our company's support time for handling tickets and clients are much much happier having their issues resolved much faster; More Importantly; Google Charts gives a great point of view to determine if additional support is needed such as hiring more employees within the department.
PROSGoogle Charts has been a vital part for my department we are constantly looking for a software or application where we can track out time for support tickets, and we found Google Charts to be the best; With using Google Charts there is a huge list of the type of charts to choose from the lists; entering data is a breeze, there are controls and dashboards where I can choose a chart of my choice and send of the weekly or monthly time allotted for support tickets that I have worked to my manager. Google Charts I can save my chart on google drive and then just update the existing chart from time to time. Moreover, with Google Charts there is great animation which is kind of cool if you ask me. Google Charts is free to use and that saves a lot of money if I were to go elsewhere and look for an application to create charts.
CONSGoogle Charts as far I have used it, I have not Encountered any issues yet.

Google charts
Google charts is a excellent tool for data's graphical representation and its library of pre built graphs makes it easy to use.
PROSGoogle Charts is an excellent tool use for data visualization in presentations and reports. It offers a lot of ready to use visualization regiemes like scatterplots, heatmaps, pie charts etc. It has a veey flexible and highly customizable dashboard. Its support for JavaScript makes it easy to embed it in a web page an is often the preffered method to do so due to its easem
CONSThe only flaws that I see in Google Charts is that it do have a certain learning curve that you have to go through in order to properly use it. Also you can use it or work.in.it inly when connected with the internet.

Simple and beautiful
Embeds nicely in websites / webapps with a small footprint.
PROSGoogle does most of the heavy lifting for you. Simply put your data in the correct format (typically a JSON object), set a few parameters/options, and you have a beautiful looking chart to embed in a website, app, or other project. I've used a couple other visualization libraries and Google Charts is definitely the simplest. I absolutely love the Timelines chart! It worked flawless to display work order data (reported, scheduled start/finish, actual start/finish dates) on a timeline for easy data analysis. With so many chart types to choose from, you'll find something you can use!
CONSWhile Google makes it super simple to implement, it does come with some drawbacks. There are a multitude of parameters/options for each chart type, but serious tweaking requires some more advanced scripting knowledge. For developers like me who have used more "programmatic" charting libraries in the past, it wasn't a huge deal, but I can imagine that more basic users might have been stuck with something they want to change, but can't.

Simple Tool but Can Offer Interactive Charts
I mainly use Google Charts for everyday operations and presenting to the Leadership Team a variety of topics using dynamic and interactive charts. It is easy, effective, organized, and helps in saving a lot of time.
PROSThe tool itself is fairly efficient, I can make a chart, graph, or a table effortlessly and it doesn't make the task complicated. I also like how this tool is integrated with other Google products like Docs and Sheets. I can use the other tools as a source of my data and create a presentation from there.
CONSThis can only be used while you're online. Also, some functionality are limited or hard to find.

The power of excel everywhere
I use sheets to keep track of my personal projects as well as records for my job and it is the perfect tool that I can access from anywhere.
PROSIt's everything I already do in excel, plus more! I use sheets to keep all sorts of records and data together. It makes it easy to share and distribute to others and getting feedback is a breeze. It's easy to input the numbers and even easier when I need to generate charts.
CONSIt slows down as I add more tabs, but it's no different than my excel file. It also takes a little time to get used to as it's not an exact copy of excel. Super close though.

Google sheets is a simple way to share charts with others
It is overall a great and easy way to make a chart quickly and share it with others that they can edit at anytime. It is great to see the edits my partners have made and seeing the history of what has changed of my charts.
PROSI enjoy of how simplistic it is to create numerous kind of charts/graphs. The functionality is very simple of creating documents that I can share with others. I think it is great of how it automatically saves your work when you exit out of the program. It is a great program to use for those who are new to making graphs and charts.
CONSI wish there were more types of details/widgets you can use to edit your charts and also some more customer service when I am having difficulty on my chart.

Easy way to present complex data with well designed and manipulative charts
You get enterprise alike charts for free, that are customizable and adoptable for any use. It is cross browser compatible making it great tool for statistic visualization.
PROSNowadays, it is kind a "must have" different real time analytics, but not only in numbers. Even though most of charts are alike one to another, tuning them up always took much time. Google charts offers for free pretty big gallery of possible charts, that can easily be manipulative and customized. Moreover, they support different inputs of dynamic data sources, making it excellent for fast and easy implementable dashboards or visual statistics.
CONSEven though it is probably the simplest tool for chart editing and displaying that allows html5 cross browser compatibility, you require certain amount of knowledge to use them for online presentations. It is not really something that you can use out of the box.

Easy, beautiful charts
Ease of use, beautiful charts, and integration into Google Sheets.
PROS--Easy to use: Just like Google's other software, Google Charts is very easy to use and customize. --Beautiful charts: The charts I create turn out looking very well for my needs. Customization options are very helpful as well. --High quality charts: I publish in academic papers, and have used charts I create with Google Charts in publications in academic journals. --Integration into other Google Drive products: I most often use Google Charts through Google Sheets. Because of this, the charts are automatically updated as I update my data, or as users submit a response to a survey through Google Forms. --Interactive charts: Having interactive charts is very helpful. I most often use pie and bar charts, and having more data pop up when I hover over an element of the chart is very helpful and adds an essential layer of functionality.
CONSSometimes, depending on my data, the chart has a hard time displaying small data points. This is most often the case with pie charts that have too many categories, and is not so much the fault of the software as it is the fault of my own data.

Google Charts is a good tool
Google chart is a good platform to analyze data by putting them in graphs. I use Google Charts more often for my weekly reports and it helps me a lot.
PROSGoogle Charts is useful, convenient and easy to use. By using Google Charts, we can now convert charts into spreadsheets and also easily customize them. I can create charts and share the results with others. Google Chart allows us to choose from several types of charts and it is easy using Google Charts to enter the data.
