This is not my experience.
Mathematica has a LOT more integrated into the base product. Matlab requires a toolbox for nearly everything and many toolboxes cost more than a Mathematica license. I enjoy Mathematica, but find Matlab to be inferior to Python development and very expensive.
- sgillen 5y agoI think Matlab is starting to realize this, at least at the institutional level they are starting to offer all the toolboxes for a fixed price (much much lower than buying all the boxes individually)
- 7thaccount 5y agoThat is good to hear about!

- 7thaccount 5y agoI don't care about home use. If my company wants to use Matlab, they shouldn't have to pay like $5k for the database toolbox and $5k for the optimization toolbox on top of my license.
- pwr-electronics 5y agoIt's still better than value-based pricing where you have to call for a quote and they try to figure out the maximum you'll pay.
