Dear all, I am new in matlab world and it is very strange but it is like every thing is done in matwork to not let people know more about this software !!

I am trying to have a trial version since 2 weeks now and nobody is responding to me. I send email to the matlab team, but really it is like there are nobody over there !

I filled and filled and filled the trial version request form but it is just like file a dead end html page. nobody response, no confirmation email, nothing !

So I am asking to you guy. WHERE CAN I GET A TRIAL VERSION OF MATLAB ????????

Should I start looking for torrent download and illegal source ??????

Sorry I don't understand your post, this irony ? do you work for matlab ?

YES I went to those page, and yes I followed the instruction. In my case I have to request a trial a representative suppose to contact me .... I am waiting since 2 weeks now.

So anybody know where I can download Matlab ? an university link or something ??

I just want a trial to test it for my organization before buying.

Just for reference, Dominique contacted me directly and I asked our Customer
Service department to contact Dominique directly regarding a trial. I also
asked them to determine the cause of the delay in responding to the trial
request, as that should not have happened.

A thought just occurred to me, though -- Dominique, have you checked your
Junk Mail or Spam folders (I don't remember off the top of my head what
Gmail calls it) to make sure that the information didn't somehow get flagged
by Gmail as spam and silently routed to the digital circular file? [I've
had emails I have been eagerly anticipating flagged as junk before, so I
want to rule out that possibility.]

I am having the exact same problem as Dominique! I've recently purchased Matlab, and before I commit more of my limited budget to purchasing several toolboxes, I'd like to demonstrate to myself (and my supervisor!) that it will be worth the extra $3000 investment...

I have made several requests over the past several weeks, and have not received the promised response from a Mathworks representative that shows up upon submitting the trial software request.

And yes, I have checked and there is nothing in my the junk mail folder of my email address associated with my Mathworks Account.

Any suggestions on how to get the ball rolling???

thanks,
sean

While waiting for your very own matlab trial or not please try octave, it's free and does many of the same things http://www.gnu.org/software/octave

Why not using MATLAB latest release online? Just sign up with MATLAB online and start using the package without any installation or downloading
