Different results for Betweenness & Closeness (Gephi/NodeXL)

Hi!

I am trying to understand how Gephi measures Betweeness and Closeness Centrality. A twitter network with 1004 nodes and 2314 edges was sent to me. I measured centrality both in Gephi and NodeXL (directed network). Unfortunately I got two completely different results:

Gephi:

Betweenness | Closeness
A: 358.0 | 1.0
B: 0.0 | 0.0
C: 0.0 | 0.0

NodeXL:

Betweenness | Closeness
A: 295472,785 | 0,001
B: 91827,372 | 0,000
C: 92674,065 | 0,000

Can anyone explain to me how this is possible?


Cheers!
