A control system includes: a data acquisition unit that acquires an operation command value and data on a cylinder speed in a state where an operation command of operating a hydraulic cylinder is output; a deriving unit that derives an operation start operation command value when the hydraulic cylinder in a stopped state starts operating and slow-speed operation characteristics indicating a relation between the operation command value and the cylinder speed in a slow-speed area based on the data acquired by the data acquisition unit; a storage unit that stores the operation start operation command value and the slow-speed operation characteristics derived by the deriving unit; and a work machine control unit that controls a work machine based on information stored in the storage unit.
