      LabWindows or LabView

      3.0

      “If you know a text based programming language, then you can pick up LabWindows pretty easy. It’s very robust and can handle nearly all problems you throw at it.”

      Energy Products Engineering Test Engineer

      LabWindows/CVI has a good UI integration, but it's just an ANSI C tool.

      4.0

      “LabWindows/CVI has a good UI integration which allows you to design your GUI and have the codes generated very easily. Most people used it to create instrument drivers. However, it can be used to beyond this scope. Since it's an ANSI C IDE, you can use it like a regular IDE tool ”
