The key drawback with amcharts (and chronoscope) is that they rely on flash for their charting. This provides a distorted presence across browsers (unless it always uses flash) and requires the end user to have a plugin installed (third party, closed source). Instead a better solution would be one that leveraged each browser's functionality to provide a native solution.
