'''CricketGraph''' was a graphic software program for the Apple Macintosh developed by Cricket Software (Jim Rafferty and Rich Norling) and sold until 1996<ref name=":0">{{Cite web |title=Cricket Graph 1.x (Mac) |url=https://winworldpc.com/product/cricket-graph/1x-mac |access-date=2026-04-21 |website=WinWorld |language=en}}</ref>. It could take tabulated data and create common business and statistics graphs such as bar chart, pie chart, scatter plots and radial plots<ref name=":0" />. These graphs could be saved in common image formats such as PICT and EPS and added to other documents. It did not have the same capabilities as a spreadsheet.<ref>{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fjdw7irpuvsC | title=Mathematics for Physical Chemistry | publisher=Academic Press | author=Mortimer, Robert G. | year=1999 | pages=363| isbn=9780125083409 }}</ref>

==Competition== The main competitor was Visual Business. Other competitors were the built-in graphing packages in Microsoft Excel, Informix Wingz, and specialty statistics software such as Systat.{{Citation needed|date=July 2023}}

Although this package was written cleanly enough to run on much later versions of Classic Mac OS, the feature set was eventually superseded by packages such as DataGraph, DeltaGraph and KaleidaGraph.{{Citation needed|date=July 2023}}
