“DecisionTools has been of immeasurable help to Mannahatta Partners in multiple financial engineering projects, ranging from portable alpha overlays to factor-based alternative beta analysis to asset-backed securitizations. We’re so happy with the robustness and ease of use of the Palisade products, that we’ve expanded our usage to the StatTools package.”
“The more I use your tool the more impressed I am. [NeuralTools, StatTools, and Evolver] offer some incredible functionality and opportunity for anyone in the field of prediction and data analysis. I expect that I will be recommending both of these additional tools [StatTools and Evolver] to the professionals in the current course I am working on for the University of British Columbia and...it will provide me with an opportunity to be able to recommend such a purchase to these learners. The ease of use and functionality makes NeuralTools invaluable. Frankly, I feel like a kid in a candy shop when I look at your offerings.I just don't know which to grab first.”
“I was looking for a user-friendly way to do autocorrelation, and a colleague recommended StatTools to me. StatTools does the time series autocorrelation in a user-friendly way that is quick and easy. You know you got it right the first time. I have box plots and other statistics that I did with it, and they were easy to refine for publication. StatTools did what I needed without the time and expense of a heavy-duty stats package.”
“We standardized on Microsoft Excel as our analysis platform for all MBA courses, so we wanted a statistical analysis package that worked in Excel. StatTools fits the bill and provides robust and accurate analysis. My students are delighted with StatTools, they find it easy to learn and easy to use.”
“In my @RISK modeling and data analysis work with
clients, primarily State and County government health and child welfare
employees, I am frequently asked to train them on basic descriptive
and inferential statistics as well as forecasting and quality control
analyses. I previously limited myself to Excel formulas and Analysis
Tools to teach such skills, but have now started using StatTools
as my primary add-in software for this task. My clients have responded
most enthusiastically. They appreciate the ability to take advantage
of their proficiency with Excel while finding it easier to carry
out the advanced analyses. They can also share their work more
easily and knowledgably with their stat-phobic colleagues, who
are often the ones who have to make the operational decisions based
on these analyses.”
“Working with StatTools is a breeze.
Procedures are robust and powerful, and the ability to work in
Excel makes the learning curve very short. The ability to write
your own custom procedures sets StatTools apart from other stats
packages.”
“I applaud StatTools' powerful statistical
analysis. The mathematics in Excel leave something to be desired.
Long ago I've re-written Excel's statistical functions as add-in
macros due to the lack of precision within Excel. After testing
a few of my favorite hand-written algorithms (Tinv, NormSdist,
Normdist ,Norminv, Binomdist, to name a few) against the ones
you've included with the package, our numbers agree to the last
digit! At last, someone takes the initiative! Thank you!”
“I enjoyed the look and feel of the
software. I was delighted to have a statistics tool working along
with Excel.”
“StatTools will be very useful for
my work, as I don't really have a good, easy to use stats program.”
“StatTools ran well. I like the ability
to have different groups.”
