Plotalot Downloads

The Plotalot Component really is free. You can download it further down this page. It is fully functional and can display charts on the front end of your site using a menu item.

The paid version includes the Plotalot Plugin, which allows you to place charts anywhere in any article. The plugin also provides additional advanced features.

Please use the free version to check that it can draw the charts you need. You might find that the free version is all you need. This table summarises the differences between the free and the paid versions.
