netzen
what is it netzen is a software tool for the analysis and visualization of social and other scale-free networks.
features netzen provides integrated visualization of node-link diagrams with scatterplots, parallel views and other visualizations of node and edge properties, including centrality metrics such as closeness, betweenness, eigenvector and Markov centralities.

netzen also incorporates sensitivity analysis and uncertainty evaluation of diverse graph metrics.

What's more, netzen provides unprecedented flexibility to layout and customize views for presentation-ready visualization.
