Well, you don't need to buy Paraview's books to start using it.

Paraview has a bit more plotting capability but the better file type support (for our uses) and documentation of visit currently gives it the edge for our purposes. This is encouraging for the future at least until support for one or both the projects gets axed which happened to paraview for a year or two. Anyone know of such a reader? There is no documentation available for paraview until 'early 2006' whenever that may be.Īlthough the commercial software is still better for student use both these programs have evolved from poorish a few years ago to really quite usable today. They have different strengths and weaknesses but, extraordinarily, paraview does not seem to support multi block structured grids and we are not going to write such software for it without documentation. The choice was effectively between paraview and visit and we opted to stick with the latter although we will support both eventually. We have recently looked at 3D plotters but commercial programs like fieldview and tecplot are not viable because of the cost (impoverished university requiring lots of copies on a range of platforms).

As dpshaka says, tecplot is commercial software and paraview is freeish (ish because you need to spend about 150 euros on a couple of books to get the documentation).
