It's very easy to copy data from excel and get an immediate feedback on descriptive data and then run simple ANOVAs.

I like that it does not take up a lot of room and is very powerful. It gives me a sense of what is going on with my data immediately and is simple enough to be explained to students quickly.

The overall appearance on screen is a bit oldish looking and requires a bit of getting used to. There could be more icons etc., although that may slow down the whole analysis and make the software more "heavy".

Easy to do quick exploratory analyses. Close to zero learning curve compared to competitors.

Very easy to use. Intuitively set up so that you can go back to it after a few weeks or months and still quickly do what you need to do. Its data manipulation tools are particularly powerful and have often permitted me to re-organize/merge files in ways that other software packages either will not permit or can only do in very complicated ways.

It's great for exploratory analyses. However once you have a set of procedures that you would like to apply consistently to several data sets, it does not provide a toolbox that lets you automate these repetitive analyses. Each one must be done manually and that makes for lost time and higher probability of mistakes.

I have used the software for analisyng the results of the animal farms. To calculate the risk of some diseases, as well as milk production and fertility

I have been using for 20 years for the average of 3 times per month. I like how easily can use the program, it saves me a lot of time and I got used to it very fast. As a veterinary the program has everything I may need for my profession

There is room to improve the quality of the graphs.

I like the variety of statistical tests available, along with its compatibility with Microsoft Office software, especially Excel and Word.

I have always thought that is need more power in handling data sets. For example, one of the main features it lacks is the ability to sort data by more than one variable. This is quite unrealistic for the kind of work my colleagues and I do which involves numerous variable.

low cost and sufficiently complete and reliable.

simple and low cost. Does all the basic stuff, including non-parametric and some multivariate. I was a long-time SAS user, but for 15 years I've been in a small research company and cannot afford SAS. Statistix was recommended and I've used it since. I've published about 20 papers in peer reviewed journals using Statistix as my sole statistical tool. Solid performance.

I could use some more sophisticated multivariate tools, but my experience is that most multivariate analyses just tell you what you already know using simpler tools, so maybe Statistix has saved me a lot of grief!

when preparing financial statements there some statistical data that requires interpretation, like graphs, pie charts, summary statistics, this application comes in handy and makes life very easy

the assistance i get for basic statistics is enourmous and its user friendly features makes it very easy to use even for starters. i am also impressed by the speed at which it executes a task. there is also a menu bar which is some sort of contents which leads you to a statistical tool you need to use

i am still surprised with low number of users considering its effectiveness, maybe i find it user friendly because of my IT background yet it may not be the same with other users.

Great data analysis means great reports and the box and whisker function is a big hit with the regulatory authorities.

The best way to view my data is using the box and whisker graph function it tells you a lot more than figures ever can as I am a visual person!

It is a good tool and used to compare the results from SAS and R

It processes the data very accurately and the inferences are always good.

Data output delivery system is not that much good and data visualization is also poor.

The software is easy to use, has a good breadth of univariate tools available, and is provided with thorough and comprehensible documentation.

Wish it had multivariate ordination tools for biological data, RA/DCA/PO/PCA/Classification analysis, etc. These exist as routines for R or S, but both are too cumbersome and complex for the occasional user to retain enough skill in to use a couple of times a year. BMDP/SPSS are easier to use for these tasks but not cost effective to purchase/lease for the individual user/small work group.

Hi value, easy to use.

Menu driven, easy data entry, easy transformations, easy class factors/dummy variables. It is great for individual data sets and ad hoc analysis.

It is not a programming software; if you generate the same type of data and do exactly the same analysis, you will need to reload and redo all analysis for each data set.

Very easy to get data from Excel; fast results that always agree with analyses produced by larger programs such as SAS. Statistix has limitations data file size and missing values (analyses often requires balanced data), but for 90% or more of my computing needs, this is my go-to program.

The graphs produced by Statistixs are functional, but not great looking, so I copy the results to Excel for graphing. This works fine, but it frequently takes quite a bit of reorganization of data in Excel to be able to produce graphs. It would be great if the output data for graphs, generally means and standard deviations or errors, could be output in an Excel-friendly format for quicker and easier graphing.

Simple, efficient, and effective software tool that allows you to quickly start exploring your data.

More advanced statistical approaches commonly used in life sciences such as nearest neighbor analyses of unreplicated trials, spatial models, and mixed models are not available.

If Statistix has the capability I am looking for, I use it first for that analysis.

Easy to use. The manual is actually intelligible, unlike so much software out there today, The customer support is excellent, both with trouble shooting and stats questions.

I wish they could do a few more advanced statistical methods, like SEM, or some econometrics applications. They would undoubtedly do them well and make them easy to use.

Clear and well explained outcomes that aid in experimental interpretation but also in experimental design. More than just doing statistical tests it helps to explain the statistical processes - especially useful for research students.

Versatility and ease of use for a variety of scientific applications.

The graphing capability has come on a long way in the latest version but is not publication quality.

The programing is simple and easy to use, while being versatile enough to cover most needs. The software support is better than any other statistics program available!

Statistix limits the ability to perform ANOVA with uneven group sizes. In addition, error messages sometimes not clear and identifying the error for repair can be tricky.

It also help me in better understanding statistics

Statistix has a very functional and canonical user interface, has an excellent manual and includes 80% of the traditional statistical techniques needed in biomedicine. It is very suitable for students and biomedical scientists who use statistics to process experimental data. I have used it for a large part of my career and now I use it for teaching and to check the results of other software. Currently I mainly use JMP 10 on Macintosh.

I would add the possibility of using alphanumeric data in nominal or ordinal categorical variables. Currently, only numbers can be used. I would also improve graphics.

Easy to use! Powerful.

It is so easy to work with data in this program -- no programming language needed! I can upload my Excel files and then easily work with them to try different statistical tests.

You have to remember your models - there is no way to save model statements in the program. When you go back into a Statistix file, there is no record saved of the analysis that you had done on the data.

Please see comments in my review. Excellent software - highly recommended for anyone working in the agricultural sciences.

Statistix is by far the fastest and easiest statistical analysis package to learn and use. It is highly intuitive, and allows one to effortlessly compare different options for data analysis (e.g., with or without transformation; various approaches for mean separation following ANOVA; parametric versus simple nonparametric tests, etc.). I find it an excellent teaching tool for illustrating these concepts to new graduate students. Undergrad research interns, too, quickly learn to use it. The program is powerful and versatile enough to accommodate nearly all of our needs (we work in applied ecology and agricultural entomology). It is very easy to get data into Statistix (e.g., copy and paste from Excel file) and get right to the analyses. Technical support is excellent. My lab members (>40 graduate students) have published >200 refereed papers in national and international journals. Statistix has served our needs very well.

Statistix is one of my favorite data analysis software. Statistix was the first statistical software that I learned. I tried learning data analysis with different software but I got confused very much and ended up trying Statistix. I am really satisfied with the tool's features and I personally think it is the best statistical vsoftware for beginners/non-professionals. What I love most about the software is the fact that you do not necessarily know much data analysis to have a reliable result on the software. The software guides you and makes things a lot easier for you to understand your results. It also suggests you the best possible outcomes for your analysis.

The thing that I dislike most about the software is that once you get accustomed with the software you do not have a lot left to discover. I would not necessarily use it for more professional analysis since it does not really provide you with as many professional features as the other statistical tools such as R does. Also, I do not think if the price of the software is fair enough for the features you get after paying.

Experimental data analysis.

Simplicity and ease to use. It covers most of the commonly used experimental designs. The manual explains very eloquently each statistical design and other commonly used statistics.

This statistical software is limited to a small number of factors measured in any experimental design (maximum of 10 parameters measured) in one analysis cycle.

This software is easy to learn and enables those will little formal training to learn to carry out simple, critical statistical analyses. The software also does not require high capacity computers, also making it accessible to scientists with minimal computer resources.

Some limitation in the versatility of the software and support for new statistical procedures. More graphics flexibility would be useful.

Great program for someone without the best math background or just someone looking to have data analyzed in a quick and easy way. The software is very user friendly and just about anyone should be able to pick it up and have it going within minutes.

The user interface could be a bit more "modern", but that's the least of my concerns when it comes to data analysis.

Quick and easy data analysis

I like the ease of operation. I can take data from excel, insert into Statistix, and do my analysis within just a few minutes.

Sometimes I have unbalanced data which seems to give the software problems. I'm sure there is a way to work around it, but since it doesn't happen very often it is only a small inconvenience.

Speed and reliability of results is the most stunning result from this software.

I use it mostly for standard stat analyses, ANOVA, and paired regression. The report output enables good understanding of the results and allows me to export them to secondary reports about the data.

I would use it more for MySQL dataset reading but I cannot figure out how to make it auto-enabled for those tasks. I do pull the MySQL datasets into ASCII files where is processes them fine.

Easy and very logical to use. I have a very good selection of ANOVA models, and other functions. The character counting function does not work properly

Could include some even more sophisticated multivariate analyses, now I need to use other software for these

Quick results for an extremely powerful statistical software package

Easy to use after you figure out which test or function is required for analysis and much improved graphical user interface

A more complete description (or examples) in practical and simple terms to know which test or function to use

Rapid and accurate statistical analysis that is scientifically valid at a low cost, that is easy to use. It is a good, user friendly solution for those that need advanced statistical power and analysis.

Statistics is very easy to use and still has access to advanced statistical tools. Data imports are easily done.

The only con is that the data set size is somewhat limited. Current software only handles about 1,000,000 records which for some data sets may be a limitation.

Please see my review.

Statistix is my "go to" program for most initial analyses of experiment data. For me, its best features are easy access to graphical looks at the data and the "Omit, select, restore" command.

There is very little that I dislike about Statistix when using it for data exploration. The main thing is that sometimes I want to look at a quick graph to compare more groups than a particular graphic will allow (perhaps comparing many lines instead of a limited number), or using something like box-and-whisker plots for a two- or three-factor design without having to re-code them as if they were multiple levels of a single factor.

It enables me to do most of the analyses I need to do on data sets very quickly and efficiently. It is also very useful for quick visualizations of data, and for quick power analysis when planning studies.

Statistix is my statistical analysis software of choice for most applications. It is very easy to use with a nice intuitive GUI interface and a logical clean menu structure. The platform is very very fast. It has an excellent breadth and depth of analytics tools for a wide variety of applications. The cost is very reasonable.

There is very little if anything to actually dislike, but there are a number of things that would be great to see built into the Statistix platform. For example...

Availability, ease of use, economical, and accurate.

I like the ease of importing other format data sets, the manual (which provides significant background), and the ability to quickly turn my analyses into graphs. The program was very affordable compared with other choices.

Some of the more specific applications that I use are not included--specific models and applications--used in wildlife ecology studies. But the standard analyses are all included. Some types of graphics that I would like to display are not supported.

The software is easy to use and understand. We do not use any other stats package for our data analysis.

The graph interphase needs refinement for functionality and looks (e. g. Editing graphs, adding error bars or customize colors and style).

Statistix helped solve hypothesis testing and data modeling in our company by putting up a single automated statistical base that is very intuitive and easy to use. Highly recommended in the scientific field and other fields in need of fast and reliable statistical tools.

Statistix provides a gentle learning curve when using the software. As a biological researcher, it may take some time to run data into a software and gathering reliable results. Statistix makes sure that its output provides comprehensible and coherent results within a given time frame. In-app documentation is also a plus and advantageous against other statistical applications.

Some computations may take time, it is understandable keeping in mind that other software take more time compared to Statistix.

I can do the most of the analyses of data sets very quickly and efficiently, it is very easy to use and intuitive. Also, for making graphs it is a very easy process and allows you to see how it is going your analysis.

The software is great in overall; the only suggestion is improve the quality of graphs, because these ones are not always enough good for publications.

i have a good experience of the programm

The transaction is very simply and you can get the information easly

i compared it with the other and it was the best

It is so cheap for what you get

Certain data sets won't work but with a quick enough change you can input them. It just takes time and effort

Quick analysis of data. Graphic representation of data.

Compatibility with Excel and overall ease of use. I use program at least 2-3 times every week for a variety of purposes.

The only hassle I have is with the size of graphs when I copy them into Word, Excel or Powerpoint. Would be nice to have a smaller size that could be expanded versus contracting a smaller size.

It's my go to package for data editing and sorting before I do econometric analysis with more sophisticated software.

The Statistix data handling function is the best in the business! You can sort data, rearrange variable order, rename variables, and perform standard transformations with virtually no pain. It does a wonderful job with cross-sectional regression analysis and descriptive statistics.

Statistix has limited econometric capability, particularly with respect to panel data analysis. It would be great if the software could run the Hausman test for endogeneity of variables. I hope this feature is added soon.

It saves a lot of time because of how easy it is to get statistical analyses and accompanying graphs accomplished. The customer service is also quick to respond whenever I upgraded work computers and needed to re-download the program.

It is very easy to plot descriptive graphs almost right away with just a few clicks. to get a feel for the data. I especially enjoy that the output for statistics like One-way ANOVAs will also give you the results for tests of assumptions, like homogeneous variation in the data. It's got pretty much all of the statistical tests a biologist would need in just a few clicks (rather than sorting through a series of menus like in other programs). Overall, the ease of use makes this perfect for working with undergraduates in the lab and has me using the it as my main statistical program.

It easy to use. Intuitive. Great graphical output facilities. Cust support rep and others in 'support' has been very helpful indeed - and fast in responding. Each new version represented significant improvements, in methodology and with respect to 'volume' - capacity. The program is fast.

Price was good for the features. I have a history with previous versions and appreciated the technical service that I received at the time.

My only observation is that it is feature rich but complicated enough that I don't know where to start.

This software gives me the chance to quickly check students statistical analysis, as well as complete my own as needed.

It's easy to use and has a lot of statistical options applicable to my research and the types of experiments I usually do.

There are a few (albeit rare) additional statistical tests I wish were included in the program, and some examples or tutorials for some of the complex tests would be useful.

Helps us quickly evaluate the modest research trials that we do in-house. Confidence to know that the math is implemented correctly.

Easy to get data in and out. Fast. Printouts give most everything needed. Printouts are easy to read and I like the way parameters are retained in the procedure set-up windows.

Despite the (known) limitations of some techniques - such as Duncan's MR - some journals etc. still rely on these. Would be nice to have them available for "legacy" applications. Would be nice to be able to label printouts and do batch processing of multiple categories (like "age", for example).

I found it very easy to explain to other people

I found it very user-friendly, especially for beginners. The customer support is also great. My requests were usually responded to within 24 hours

Its very practical statistix software

It is very practical. The version 10 includes many options as the calculation of sample size. Also improving in the graphics have been included

It is necessary to include some additional test such as:

Easy to use in a teaching environment. Much cheaper than alternative packages.

Very intuitive, which helps enormously when teaching statistics, especially to students with limited experience with statistical (or other serious) software. No syntax to learn, and most of the common options are pre-programmed.

Error recovery is a bit harsh. If you encounter an error, the module shuts down and you need to start over.

I can perform quick analytical assessments.

Performs very efficiently and quickly on a PC, the menu options are simple and straight forward, I can print out my results immedinately, readily accepts Excel data files. When I have issues technical support has been responsive and helpful.

I have had some analytical and sorting problems with Date/time files, especially when date/time are in same Excel field which has forced me to find creative ways around issues by creating seperate Excel data bases and perfomring various tasks. Wish data field names would allow more characters so I don't have to rely so much on acronyms.

Simplicity and ease of use once you get used to it. Able to transfer by copy and pasting from Excel.

Sometimes , it has hiccups of numbers on ANOVA analysis that has different numbers that doesn't match with sum, average, and standard deviation.

It permits analysis of data that is very user-friendly and well documented and statistical procedures that satisfy most of the primary needs of fisheries scientists.

This is an excellent analytical software, and I highly recommend it. It is very user-friendly and well supported with help menus and explanations of the statistical analysis offered. Our biologists, technicians, undergraduate and graduate students have used the software and have found that it provides 80% of the analyses normally used in fisheries science. Customer support has been excellent; however, we continue to use versions 8 and 9 because we have found some issues with certain utilities in 10. As a research scientist and adjunct professor, I am very pleased to have the capabilities provided in the software, use it regularly in data analysis. My graduate students use it for 90% of their graduate-work analysis, which has been published throughout the primary literature. We routinely reference the use of the software in our scientific manuscripts and papers.

Wish it had more utilities associated with more advanced statistical analysis. The software is highly capable, and I recommend it routinely to my undergraduate and graduate students. In a recent version (9 and 10), we found a utility lacking that was in the former versions. We contacted Customer Support, and they very quickly prepared a patch. So although there were some issues, they were dealt with immediately and appropriately. We do not use version 10 and would like to do so because it has many updated features that aren't as user-friendly as in versions 8 and 9, We have seen that some plots in version 9 do not present all the values; one value appears to be dropped, usually the lowest. This is a very minor problem, and given the tremendous capabilities of the software, we have not concerned ourselves with this minor problem. I have virtually no reservations in recommending this software to my colleagues, students, and graduate students.

It is very easy to do a preliminary analysis using Statistix and it is a product I can recommend to clients as an easy to use statistical solution.

Statistix is a simple menu/command driven statistical analysis package that still allows a broad range of analyses to be performed. It also includes log files that allow one to document how a result was achieved. Finally, the graphics it produces are "publication quality" and can be exported to a number of formats. Overall it is likely the only statistics software most people need and is far superior to doing statistical analysis in spreadsheets (it reads and writes Excel). I am a professional statistician and I still use it for 80% or so of my work.

In some cases it shows fewer significant digits (decimal places) than I would like and there is no simple way to force more precision. This said, one can force it to report more digits using tricks like multiplying all entries by 100 and the rounding choices are reasonable and do not affect the utility of the software.

This software has the major procedures and functionalities that many other commercial statistical designs have. The user does not need to undertake heavy-duty or tedious programming for data compiling, processing and analyzing. Do I need to know how to use Microsoft Excel spread sheet? Yes! Do I need to know how to transfer data from Excel onto Statistix? Yes! If I don't, the technical support is there to help or teach me virtually. Wasn't that amazing!!For factual needs I realistically like everything about Statistix, as it allows me to perform closely my statistical data analyses.

I just wish the analytical capacity of Statistix expands over time with the quantity of data entries.

User friendly and straight forward program that allows the analysis of research data. It is economical, but provides the power needed to analyze all of the data that I am responsible for

It is designed to analyze fairly straight forward designs. and as you run a given analysis, you can only include 10 variables at a time. This is somewhat inconvenient, but for the cost, I am willing to work around it by Analytical Software on 06/12/2017 Now you can analyze 20 dependent variables at a time with analysis of variance. Download your free update at www.statistix.com/update.

Ease of use in conducting basic statistical analyses. However, this software is not comparable to SAS or SPSS, but for the occasional analytic needs of a professional, it is well priced and does not have a steep learning curve.

I enjoy the ease of data entry, including importing data from Excel. I primarily use the regression tools, but also use the various summary statistical options during the early stages of my data analysis. The software's ability to manipulate data is a plus when I need to transform the original data into alternative forms, such as ln(x).

The primary drawback to the software is the lack of presentation quality reporting output. I often need to cut-and-paste the output and edit it within Word. The option of saving the output in a presentation-quality image file would allow me to simply import the png or jpeg file into the document.

No need to use expensive other statistics; allows me to do my own analysis, in a flexible way: don't have to wait

Easy to use; no frills but all the functions one could wish for in a simple but not too simple package. You don't need extensive training like with some other packages and pricing is very competitive

Graphics could look nicer, although they're adequate. Last significant update is already some time ago.

Excellent compatibility with Microsoft Excel; cut and paste between data sheets easily! I really like the menu-driven format. In this age of programs like "R", it is really nice to be able to do some processes without programming.

I find the graphics to be a bit basic and relatively inflexible in terms of making publication quality figures.
