Pros

I would say it is a positive experience helps me track what sale are most profitable. I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking to grow sales.
The ease to use and train employees on this BI tool makes it best in the market. The power of building your own databases, customizing reports and the level of customer service is outstanding.
My overall experience with Phocas has been excellent, we use the system to monitor growing and declining sales to protect out business and easily identify buying gaps to help increase sales.

Pros

I like how the software allows me to do my data analysis with ease, as compared to STATA, which requires a great deal of practice and knowledge in order to use it effectively.
My favorite thing about the XLSTAT programs is the ease of use and the amount of benefit one can gain from this program as a business student.
I use this software for statistical analyses for all my research and publications; it is easy to use right 'out of the box', has the functionality I need, and the customer service is outstanding.

Cons

However that's really our problem rather than theirs.
Easily compare turnovers. See who has stopped buying a particular part no, and see who is buying something new.
Customising reports can be hard to navigate around.

Cons

The only downside to XLSTAT is it’s lack of flexibility. Not a lot of data manipulation functions.
The explanation of the staistical results is poor and incomplete. The annual subscription is quite expensive.
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.

easy to use

Reviewed a year ago

Overall, it is perfect software. I'm willing to use this software after I graduate.

Pros

when ANOVA is needed to test, I've never seen such an easy software as Xlstat. Also, since we can adjust the figure using excel, it is so convenient software.

Cons

it might be helpful if there's some software for metabolomics tools. There are only few of options available, but i was wondering if we can use the volcano plot.

Amazing software for statistical analysis right from within excel

Reviewed 2 years ago

Overall, I am satisfied with XLSTAT in terms of value for money and ease of use. Given that I have advanced level knowledge in excel, this streamlines my workflow significantly with the way it is integrated into excel. However the price is really on a high end.

Pros

The one thing that keeps me coming back to XLSTAT despite many alternatives is the ability of the software to write a summary interpretation of statistical tests

Cons

The software is very expensive compared to other software that can do similar statistical analysis

XLSTAT - Great Software

Reviewed 5 years ago

Love this software. The cost vs quality is exceptional

Pros

This software is excellent. It is quick to get analysis done. the normality checks tell you normal or non normal without looking up probability factors. You can easily conduct the statistical analysis needed for most data sets.

Cons

The only thing that took some time was to learn the method of setting up your data sets for analysis. Although this didn't take that long and once mastered its simple.

XLSTAT works well for Windows, but not Macs

Reviewed 6 years ago

I thought this software was a great idea, and it works really well on a Windows machine. I tried it several times (several versions) on a Mac, and was always disappointed. The support staff acknowledges that the performance on a Mac is less than on a PC

Pros

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.

Cons

This software doesn't work well on a Mac.
