"In our company, Julia blurs the barrier between prototyping done by data scientists and production development done by our developers. Thanks to Julia, both activities are carried out within the same platform. This brings a lot of advantages, including much faster development and much easier maintenance of code."

"We were constrained by MATLAB in terms of programming style (vectorization was the only way), available libraries (no hash table, for instance), cost (new release and toolboxes), parallelization (no way to do generic parallel processing or threading), speed (no way to hyper-optimize critical MATLAB code without dropping to C/C++/Fortran), and …
