  • Hard to quantify partial icons
  • Icons must be of consistent size

  • Best for only 2-6 categories

  • Very simplistic

  • Not as visually appealing

  • Best for under 50 data values

  • Needs small range of data

  • No exact numerical data

  • Hard to compare 2 data sets


some disadvantages u can find,

can use only with discrete data n also the graph categories can be reordered to emphasize some effects over that

If you have an extremely large number of items to graph the individual bars become indistinct. That is when you should use a line graph.

Also, a bar graph would not work when attempting to graph formulas.
