The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

MetaWRAP—a flexible pipeline for genome-resolved metagenomic data analysis (2018, methodology): “The assembly is then binned with the metaWRAP-Binning module by three metagenomic binning software – MaxBin2, metaBAT2, and CONCOCT[19, 21, 22].”
A practical guide to amplicon and metagenomic analysis of microbiome data (2020, methodology): “Available binning tools include CONCOCT (Al-neberg et al., 2014), MaxBin 2 (Wu et al., 2015), and MetaBAT2 (Kang et al., 2015).”
Hi-C deconvolution of a human gut microbiome yields high-quality draft genomes and reveals plasmid-genome interactions (2017, methodology): “…of our ProxiMeta approach in comparison to more traditional binning methods, we used the same shotgun assembly contigs to infer genome bins using MaxBin, a commonly-used genome binning method based on coverage and tetranucleotide composition Wu et al., 2014; Wu, Simmons, and Singer, 2016.”
Critical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation: the second round of challenges (2021, background): “UltraBinner had the best completeness on the marine GSA, CONCOCT on the strain-madness GSA and plant-associated MA, MetaWRAP on marine and strain-madness MAs and MaxBin 38 on the plant-associated GSA.”
SqueezeMeta, A Highly Portable, Fully Automatic Metagenomic Analysis Pipeline (2018, positive): “Currently, Maxbin (Wu et al., 2015) and Metabat2 (Kang et al., 2015) are supported.”
