XLSTAT is a user-friendly, comprehensive, affordable and performant statistical software that works as an add-on to Excel. More than 200 statistical features available in general or field-oriented solutions. Features include data visualization, statistical modeling (regression, ANOVA, mixed models, PLS...), data mining (PCA, MCA, DA...), stat tests, forecasting methods, machine learning, conjoint analysis, PLS-SEM, survival analysis, method comparison, OMICs data analysis, SPC and many more.
No coding involved! Functions are mostly intuitive and data formatting requirements are looser than other programs.
Somewhat prone to crashing/freezing when selecting data from multiple sheets. Visual representations of results are a bit limited.
Being involved in statistics for more than 50 years, I never found so easy to compute statistical tests and draw figures (more espcially for multivariate statistics) with a statistical program. The main advantage of XLSTAT is that it adds a lot of tools to Excel, now also some procesures from R (still to be extended to ade4, for instance). I recommand it, not only for students, but also to all scientists.
The price is a little too high, please make an effort to decrease it
Since I am not familiar with coding, XLSTAT gives me the opportunity to do advanced statistics without the need for coding due to the user interface. I can even do R from XLSTAT in future.
The program is sometimes glitchy and sometimes hangs when opening.
I thought it was very easy to use and when I had any questions, customer service was there to help. This software helped me get through statistics and finish with grade I desired. So many sample problems and solutions to help when you don’t understand a concept. Would recommend this as much as I can!
I personally did not believe there was many cons to this software. Only con would be that some of the formulas are hard to understand but when taken time to thoroughly execute each variable and then apply to the extra problems given, figuring it out was possible.
Being an extension of the excel interface facilitates its use and is relatively simple. The output formats of the results are easy to interpret and to be used in other applications.
For the same reason that it is a program that opens within another (add-in for Excel, Microsoft), any change in the operating system or in the Excel itself impacts the performance of XLSTAT. Unfortunately, in recent yeas this has happened very frequently, leaving out those who has not contracted the support/update service, since in some cases it is possible that XLSTAT stops working completely. There is a real dependence on the support/update service even for basic operation. by Addinsoft on 27/03/2019 Thank you for your review. Indeed, as an Excel add-on XLSTAT depends on Microsoft Office. Therefore, we have to constantly develop and release new versions to ensure full compatibility with the most recent versions of Excel. This is why, when purchasing a perpetual license, we establish a maintenance contract valid for one year, renewable each year at a reduced rate.
XLSTAT has a range of depth of functionality even in its Basic version which is outstanding and the fact that it sits happily on top of EXCEL makes it a winner as far as I am concerned. Statistics has always been lurking in my academic and professional background but just using and experimenting with XLSTAT features on my data sets has allowed me to explore a range of possibilities that would have sent me nuts if using SPSS. An exceptional piece of software and a brilliant learning and research tool.
Nothing - it has enhanced my research no end.
XLSTAT is easy and largely intuitive to use. The manual and examples are quite helpful. I have found it easy to work through numerous analyses with few glitches or problems. In addition, the computation time is reasonable.
I was hoping for more utility with the PERMANOVA analysis, but it doesn't work well, at least in a Mac environment. I'm also not a big fan of the graphics, and unfortunately the 3-d package is available only for Windows.
1- The facility to start up
1- The maintenance policy is very expensive
Ease of use, variety of options, seamless integration in Excel
email-only customer support, regular data "overflows"
XLSTAT makes multivariate analysis a snap. I have been a SAS user since 1982 and use it for some analysis where I need the detailed diagnostics. However, I try to utilize statistics packages that are easier to use when possible which makes it much simpler to instruct more junior scientists how to perform advanced analysis and XLSTAT is really good for this. I make it a practice to check any new statistical package against SAS results and XLSTAT passes with flying colors.
The only problem I have encountered with XLSTAT is having EXCEL crash n occasion, though this may have more to do with how our IT department has configured our computers.
- fácil de usar
- subscription-based software
I am in natural science research, which means I am always looking into finding efficient data analysis options. I came across XLSTAT during my Masters. It was easy to add into Excel ( my main data management software), which allowed me to carry out multivariate analysis and do so with ease. As an excel add-in, this was ideal because it became part of the interface without me having to use different applications. This software definitely enhanced my data analysis at the time.
I had the free trial - it kept crashing and definitely had some bugs. This meant that I had to plan my data analysis accordingly, which was somewhat limiting for my research. Second to this, I occasionally had some user issues with basic functions like data selections. The advertisements and notices to upgrade were really irritating and deterred me from wanting to do so.
XLSTAT can process even spatial data as raster to CSV converted files and enables to prepare the data just like in Excel. Data preparation is the single tedious task which consumes most of the time in a data science project. XLSTAT has all standard features and algorithms of machine learning software which can be operated by editing simple spreadsheets.
Not suitable for processing a big dataset with 10 million rows such as high-resolution remote sensing images by Addinsoft on 18/01/2019 Many thanks for your detailed review! It is now possible to load data files which exceed the standard Excel worksheet size. This import method loads data into the computer¿s memory rather than the worksheet. This option is currently available for regression, normality tests and data management tasks but we plan to integrate it to more features.
I love that XLSTAT works with Excel spreadsheets. I love the tech support. I love all of the options. When there isn't a specific statistic or graphing option available, I have been able to request it and tech has always provided my request with the new update of the software.
At times, it crashes a lot when I am running large datasets. Also, the help manual does not always have answers to the questions that I am asking. Finally, it is a bit pricey for students.
I find the software is the most user-friendly and easiest and quickest to learn in comparison to competing software. Also excellent support is provided which adds to its ease-of-use.
It doesn't have confirmatory tetrad analysis.
This software has a wide range of statistical tests. Any statistical need I have, I am able to answer my question using XLSTAT. Other programs are very limited in the tests that are offered. I have not had this problem with XLSTAT.
Very rarely, the software will freeze, and I will lose unsaved work entirely.
The software is user-friendly, results are easy to interpret, it's an all-in-one software. The fact that it can be integrated with excel removes the need to import data, which is freaking awesome. The other software that I have used require extensive training beforehand, however, with XLStat, the support from the team and webinars were enough to navigate the software like a pro.
Nothing really. I honestly love XLSTAT. by Addinsoft on 18/01/2019 Many thanks for your review from the XLSTAT team!
Occasionally crashes on OS X. Sometimes it can take a while to load the software and process data depending on how much data and what test you are running.
Biggest issue i had with XLSTAT was breaking old habits before i picked it up. That's a me problem, not a software problem. Another issue is very large data sets can sometimes clunk up the software.
It is very easy to use. very efficient to perform basic statistical analysis.
Some R-package based function not fully working, hope the technical team will be able to fix.
I have no complaints about the XLSTAT software.
XLSTAT provides basic functionality that is not available in MS EXCEL- most importantly non-parametric tests. Scientists have to understand that the majority of their data is not normally distributed, consequently the tests MS EXCEL contains are not sufficient. While EXCEL is a powerful and often underrated tool, its functionality is incomplete without XLSTAT.
Unfortunately, there is still no compendium of all commands and the corresponding sytnax.
What I like about XLSTAT is its integration with EXCEL, which makes it very easy and intuitive to use.
Now, the level of compartmentalization in the modules. It would be easier to have a full version with all the analysis options
Some features are of relatively insignificant importance. Also, the display of outputs does not look really attractive to me.
Perhaps some basic analysis tools are still missing. by Addinsoft on 18/01/2019 Thank you for your review. We have an "ideas" page on our website where you can suggest analysis: https://ideas.xlstat.com. Feel free to share your ideas with us!
This add-in for Excel was actually really neat. Not only did I use it for the class that gave assignments based on the software, but I used it for many of my other MBA courses and can see myself relying on it for use within business.
I wish I didn't have to start up XLStat every time I opened MS Excel, however I do understand it's likely making Excel faster but requiring me to start it only when I use it!
Tightly integrated with Excel. Has practically all of the stats features I need. The authors continually add new features.
Occasionally crashes with very large data sets, although that could be a memory problem.
I liked the easy the interface works, and the vast and powerful statistic tools on it. I used the normal version and has enough tools for research in biotechnology. When I tried the premium version I can use several techniques and I really considered to buy it.
The high price, and the economic version only last one year. I recommended that once your license ends you can continue some of the features integrated on that license and don't block you all access even the free trail. by Addinsoft on 17/01/2019 Thank you for your review! After your license expires, XLSTAT converts to the Free limited version so you should be able to continue using some of its features. If this is not the case, please contact our technical support team at [email protected]
It is easy to use and the results are clearly
The time to use the licence, I think that it will be for two years.
There wasn’t much to hate about it, I wish it was more adaptable to Google and other types of Excel like software.
It is easy to find the statistical test I need to solve my questions
Sometimes it is difficult to organize the data before conducting the tests
I appreciate having access to a number of basic and advanced analytical methods for business analytics. If you don't code, having an easy-to-use Excel-based tool allows you to both analyze and interpret your data.
It can be temperamental. If not used in a very particular sequence, the software can freeze and either need to be restarted or unlocked by pressing the F5 key. The software is also limited by high-dimensional data. Running a regression with more than a set number of variables may not be possible.
This software is cheap and user friendly. Moreover it works as add-on for Excel and it exploits all its potentials. The figures obtained by this software are easily manageable and transferable in different type of files (doc, pdf, ppt, etc.). The tutorials are clear and exhaustive.
Unfortunately this software does not allow to perform very important chemometric treatments like, for example, SIMCA and bootstrap validation methods.
I use XLSTAT regularly to analyze trends in data, and have found it easy to use. It saves me literally hours of time in calculations, since it gives me specifically the functions I need.
I haven't been able to explore more fully all of its features, but this is really my fault.
First, it is not based on an enormous statistical package and the articulation with Excel is most of the time excellent. Second it is very reliable and easy to use (at least if you are a little bit familiar with the field). Third, it does many things and some versions are very complete, enough to satisfy in most cases all your needs. Fourth, you'll find very specialised analysis or tests beside the common ones. Fifth, the value for money is excellent and the accompanying doc is extensive.
Well, some repetitive analysis are boring, but it does the job.
Since I started studying at the University with Commerce - Finance major, I have had to use XLSTAT for the Statistics course. The function of XLSTAT was amazing. It could install with Excel and use to calculate with many features associated with Excel. It helped my course became easier than at the beginning. It analyzed and calculated data, statistics, and numbers. Learning more different tools and skills from XLSTAT that could apply to practice and the real world.
It was hard at the beginning to go through all the instructions to understand how it works and installs it into Excel. It takes time but it is helpful for our works and studies.
As I mentioned above, it does not have a lot of features. So this should probably be a minus. Also, I sometimes encounter some technical problems with exporting outputs, where outputs are simply nothing other than a blank sheet! by Addinsoft on 27/03/2019 Thank you for your review! You may have look at our Premium solution which includes more than 200 features, ranging from essential statistical tools to more advanced such as time series analysis, survival analysis, marketing tools, simulations, designs of experiments and much more.
Ease of use, interpretation of results and accompanying tutorial for easy development of capacity.
Which the cost can be reduced for early-career researchers in developing countries.
The statistical functions are integrated into Microsoft excel is the best feature of this software. It makes it easy to arrange the columns and rows and prepare your data for analysis. Integration with R software is a strength as well.
The statistical functions are not very intuitive and user friendly to use. The integration with MS Excel is both the software`s strength as well as a weakness.
The fact that it allows me to customize my excel functions. It allows me to add add-ins that make data handling very much easier. For example i have managed to put in an add in that allows me to merge given excel files without having to individually copy and paste. Once i have my add in added to the xlstat folder i can just click and achieve my stack in one go. Then also i have managed to include another add in that is very useful for classification of my data after i have run my analysis. Simply by just copying the addin into the XLSTAT folder.
So far it has not disappointed me. I wish to see more of its usefulness
I like the easiness and very intuitive interface. Clear tutorials on the website with important examples. It is a very complete tool for my daily activity. I will recommend always.
Sometimes the difficult in reinstall the old versions in other computers
It is, perhaps, less than totally intuitive. Their support is not always as prompt or clear as one would want.
Easy to use, has many tests to choose from, works within Excel
Yearly license system gets costly (but, compared to other similar software, this one is very reasonably priced).
ease to teach, interpretation easy; data handling very streamlined
features available in different packages by Addinsoft on 27/03/2019 Thank you! We are happy to hear that XLSTAT fits well your teaching needs and you had a great experience with our customer service. The XLSTAT Team
I would like the ability to do ANOSIM and SIMPER. These are the popular/standard multivariate programs used in ecological studies. Presently folks are stuck with primer-e which is very expensive and made for Windows. When I upgraded to a more recent version of XLSTAT, I thought I would have access to these. PERMANOVA (adonis) is not the same. Please consider adding these through you R connection (e.g. vegan).
XLSTAT has provided fully solution for my PHD thesis especially in pre-processing procedure, data analysis and visually describe my result beautifully. Besides, proper explanation in each output is really helpful so that my interpretation in writing became easier. In addition, i can found the tutorial for every analysis i needed easily.
i try very hard to find out the part that i like least about this software. but i cant found it. Sorry.
Until recently i really appreciated the functionality and wide array of topics of the programme and its direct relation with excel.
Ongoing technical hurdles with the programme, which until now have not been solved (after renewing the license), despite of my pleading. by Addinsoft on 18/01/2019 Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that technical problems persist. Please send an email at [email protected] and your request will be treated in priority by our technical support team.
I rave endlessly about the usability of XLSTAT and the variety of statistics available. I've dealt with countless statistical softwares and they can be incredibly frustrating to use with a very high learning curve. XLSTAT is the exact opposite of that and you don't have to convert any of your data into obscure formats to use it! All formats easily import into and out of excel making XLSTAT the ideal program.
The only cons are the price tag and the inability to customize what statistics you need most without buying additional premium packages. It is extremely expensive if you aren't a student or affiliated with an organization who sponsors the payment for this program. by Addinsoft on 27/03/2019 Thank you for your review! Indeed, the prices change if you are no longer a student. However,our rates still remain very competitive compared to other softwares. Please do not hesitate to contact us at https://www.xlstat.com/en/contact if you need any information on the prices of the different solutions.
I like its integration with Excel and its multiple array of functions at an affordable price. I have been using JMP and StatView in the past. The former has gotten to be very expensive and the latter is no longer available. For a user requiring basic to moderate statistical tools this program is excellent. It does reasonable charting using Excel's capabilities. I have not tried the charting modules as they are not essential to what I do.
It took me a while to get used to it. The manual is not easy to navigate. I have looked at some tutorials and found them helpful. Perhaps setting an Introductory course to "Become a proficient XLSTAT user" lets say in 12-24 sessions could be helpful. by Addinsoft on 18/01/2019 Many thanks for your review! We organise a 3-Day training on XLSTAT-Base every spring and autumn. You can check out the dates at https://www.xlstat.com/en/training. Statistics webinar recordings can be also found at https://help.xlstat.com/customer/en/portal/articles/2761028-statistics-webinar-recordings?b_id=9202. Regards, the XLSTAT Team.
1.Easy of use and easy to train new staff on the software
There is nothing wrong with the software
This software is powerful, yet very easy to use. The user interface is very intuitive and user friendly. The "research" toolbar is also a great feature to quickly find the desired test. The online help centre and tutorials are also a great source of knowledge.
Nothing really. If I had to pick something though, I would say that it is a shame that tools cannot be bought individually. Sometimes you just need one tool (i.e. Penalty analysis), but you need to buy the full package/module (i.e. the Sensory).
The ease of data input and computation is unmatched.
I do not have any clear reservations about this software.
Innovative & performant algorithms covering many general and specialised issues.
ACM maps (visualization can be improved by filtering tools and interactivity)
It is very easy and reliable to use and very accurate in analysing data. Very easy to install.
The expiration date is so very fast and the price of renewal is little high
It is easy (and powerful) to interface this package with Excel on a Windows machine, but it's disappointingly slow (and crashes) on a Mac.
This software doesn't work well on a Mac.
Easy to use but powerful
It does not allow to draw nice graphs of the results such as graphpad prism. This is a shame as most of my colleagues in biomedical research prefer Prism just because of these graphs that can be modified and edited easily
I really like how user-friendly it is, and how there is a full explanation of how to use each function. I often look to the XLSTAT website for help and it is a great resource.
The only comment I have is that it would be nice to be able to communicate with a help desk type resource through a chat box- however this feature may already exist and I just have not yet discovered it yet.
I like the various options for analysis that are not easily available elsewhere - particularly for sensory science applications. Once you get used to the different menus it's fairly easy to use. The tutorials and video support are mostly very clear. The customer service is excellent with very rapid replies and solutions.
It can be difficult to use the first few times but the tutorials help explain most things and the excellent customer service helps with much of the rest. The plots can be tricky to share and require some editing before use.
The activation process causes a slight annoyance if a machine dies or a user leaves before we get to deactivate I haven't seen an easy way to deactivate the license but its a small gripe.
I run all the analysis with XLStat and always compared with SAS and R: XLStat is very accurate and reliable for researchers.
Crashes with too many data. Huge datasets like omics data may require to go to R or SAS.
I hope XLSTAT could develop more multivariate analysis functions, e.g. OPLS-DA, currently, only PLS-DA is available. In addition, it is also necessary to add cross-validation and permutation test of (O)PLS-DA. It would be great to offer more features regarding the plotting function.
Software reminds me of some of the functionality of the older SAS software.
I would have liked to see an easier way to make it available on more machines in our laboratories/offices. I have it on one machine but I need some help in adding that across groups.
User friendly and easy to manage my problems solving for class
Needs more updated information for different functions areas
I would like to see an option to directly export the publication quality graphs out of XLSTAT with an option to change the dpi and image size. An inclusion of error bars will make this software even more powerful.
What I enjoy most about the software is its ease of use and easily demonstrating search of "how to use" functionality. The step by step instructions provided and clarity at which functions of XLStat can be used is commendable.
I cant say there is really anything I like least about the software except maybe after completing a task and a new tab is generated...it would be nice if the menu bar made available following certain test functions was more understandable.
The system is extremely user friendly and allows for quicker functionality of formula's. Great tool for analyst and accountants.
Some of the action buttons are in different areas, but still very quick to learn.
The primary attribute for me is the thoroughness of the product, and the detail with which the various procedures are document.
There is a steep learning curve only if you are fairly new to statistics. T
I personally only have an introductory statistics knowledge (so far!) so I found it hard to understand what tests I wanted to run to receive the information I needed. This was especially the case for tests that I have not conducted before. The online training site was helpful as a guide but hard to translate to my own scenarios.
Interaction with Excel
Not possible to build a full chain of analysis...Like working on residual values of an anova to perform a multivariate analysis (for instance)
Sometimes the macros do not run properly and Excel crashes. Always save your work many times!
-Easy and friendly to use
-The explanation of the staistical results is poor and incomplete
Easy to work complex with many UNIVARIATE and MULTIVARIATE data. Output easy to understand. Online guidelines for all types of analyses performed.
Nothing negative to add at all. However, some frequent used regressions models (Cubic, Log, Exponential) could have an easy button as it has for linear model.
The connection with Excel, the excel-like functionality, help is always provided as needed, In summary it's a great environment for data analysis and statistics in general.
Nothing I can think of right now, all is flawless.
Its interface is very friendly and meets most of the requirements I need for the processing of statistical data
Actually almost everything I like would not take anything away as they constantly update them and incorporate new statistical tools for data processing. by Addinsoft on 21/06/2018 Thank you very much for your excellent review Humberto C., the whole XLSTAT team thanks you
COMBINING WITH EXCEL
Need provide statistical principle or result explanation in advanced by Addinsoft on 21/06/2018 Thank you very much for your review! The whole XLSTAT team thanks you
