Avis clients sur Statgraphics Centurion

My Statgraphics 18 Review

Commentaires : Descriptive Statistics, data recognition, linear regression, logistic regression, ridge regression, discriminant analysis, etc...With all the Huge graphical facilities

Avantages :

Large selection of Statistics procedures, easy to use, graphical facilities for Data understanding, low price

Inconvénients :

Not like SPSS Modeler (Old Clementine) : easy data join and filter from any source; facility to link the mathematical models solutions. You create and follow your own Models flow.

lots of stat function with good tutorials

Commentaires : The Statgraphics team has been very responsive when I have had technical issues with the software, typically responding to email inquiries within an hour or two. The software tutorials are very good, showing clearly how to set up an analyses and how to interpret it. The backup stat tutorials, explaining the statistics, are excellent as well.

Avantages :

The software is pretty intuitive and easy to use with excellent tutorials. The thing I like the most about the Statgraphics software though is the brief stat interpretations included as part of the analysis reports. For users who are not stat professionals, the interpretations are very helpful in making sure users understand the meaning of the data.

Inconvénients :

Occasionally, one of my files will get corrupted somehow and cause the program to crash every time the corrupted file is opened. The report generator is very bare bones, so exporting the report to a .rtf file then editing it with a standard text editor is necessary to achieve good formatting for printability.

Nice but not the best

Commentaires : Some of our R&D folks still use Statgraphics for trending, control charting, and capability analysis. Once in a great while one of them will try some comparative analysis, but usually they call me for help. Anything DOE or multiple regression related and they come to me for help and I'll use JMP instead of Statgraphics.

Avantages :

1) The ease of use by non-statisticians is awesome. The menus are structured to make it easy to find what you're looking for. Highly recommended for the common man who does not have a strong background in stats. 2) The Stat-Advisor is a great tool - especially for the non-statistics folks. 3) The dynamic linking of the data to the graphical reports is very nice. The ability to see the impact of new data on existing reports is a great feature.

Inconvénients :

1) The installation process is EXTREMELY painful. Because our IT rules do not allow us to have admin rights on our laptops, the multiple back-and-forth validation process imposed by Statgraphics frustrates everybody here that tries to set it up. Often this process takes days to accomplish. 2) Customer support has deteriorated greatly over the last 20 years. I've been a Statgraphics user since the 80's. Back then when you had a problem a simple email resulted in an almost immediate response - often from N.P. himself. In the last 5 years I've had many support requests or questions get completely ignored. Very disappointing to a long time user. 3) The DOE module is the weakest link in the Statgraphics chain. Even in the 80's and 90's when I loved the product and used it exclusively, our Applied Math and Statistics group used JMP for any DOE work because it is just that much better. 4) There is no scripting function or application builder utility. You can save a folio but cannot apply the analyses in that folio to a different data set like you could with a script or macro function.

Statgraphics software for Facile and Accurate Analysis - for Statisticians and Nonstatisticians

Commentaires : I have used Statgraphics to solve drug quality problems, validate processes, develop sampling plans, assess capability to meet requirements, set specifications, assess process control, identify factors that control outputs, perform simulations, among many others.

Avantages :

The software explanatory text and graphics with every analysis.

Inconvénients :

Software updates appear too infrequently.

Quick and Easy

Commentaires : This software has been my "go-to" package for over 15 years. It is extremely reliable and easy to use. It also offers all the statistical analyses I need for my business.

Avantages :

Very easy and intuitive to use. Easy to import raw data as well

Inconvénients :

Tutorials could use some improvements for non-standard statistical analyses

My review about Statgraphics

Commentaires : I am really satisfied with this software. We use it for some of our experimental procedures so we can have the weight of statistical support together with the results, finally having a more precise and secure decition and more reliable for its publication in scientific reviews.

Avantages :

Using Statgraphics it is possible to create a design of experiments (DoE) for its use in the experimental part in the laboratory, to finally optimize the response and obtain the optimum conditions.

Inconvénients :

It is important to update it, otherwise it can ended up with giving an error.

A complete data analysis software

Commentaires : In research fields, all the experimental results and simulations have to be statistical validated. For a user with no background in data analysis, it is difficult to calculate condifence bounds, carry out hypothesis tests and multivariate analysis. Statgraphics has been very useful to understand the results obtained and validate the approaches we propose by means of statistical methods.

Avantages :

This software integrates a large amount of tools for data analysis. It permits to carry out univariate and multivariate analysis easily. Also, the StatAdvisor allows the user not only to get the mathematical results, but to analyze them with statistic fundamentals.

Inconvénients :

Despite the StatFolio is comparable to Excel Sheets or Google Sheets, the data has to be ready for statistical analysis. In the case of atypical values, or just the user trying to make operations between columns, this software only permits the user to delete or replace values.

IT'S A ROBUST PROGRAM THAT FACILITATES THE WORK IN THE AREA OF QUALITY CONTROL AND SENSORY ANALYSIS

Commentaires : facilitate to a great extent the fulfillment of my responsibilities and the culmination of my projects.

Avantages :

That it covers all the functions that I need to embrace in my work area, from the statistical tests to the control charts. Then I can evaluate a large amount of data in a simple way, both in the area of sensory analysis of a product and when performing the statistical control of the quality of a process

Inconvénients :

I think that the user interface could be improved a little, making it more enjoyable, and making more dynamic the development of the functions of the program.

Blows Excel out of the water

Avantages :

The charting tools are excellent, far better than Excel.

Inconvénients :

A bit of a learning curve. You aren't going to get very far if you dont have a solid stats background.

Traer tool

Avantages :

Youll have a lots of options for analizing data with lots of forms to resume and show the analized data.

Inconvénients :

The intarfece could be better user friendly.

Many options do not work well

Commentaires : I have tried to use it many times with large Excel data files of around 1 GB but it has always been a failure and unable to manage this amount of data (big data !!).
In particular, the "big data" option that would be very useful never worked despite numerous attempts and requests for support, which after a while stopped "supporting"
In practice a good "didactic" product but not suitable for "heavy industrial" use.
Quite disappointed even though I occasionally continue to use it

Avantages :

Great ease of use Quite complete Sufficient documentation

Inconvénients :

Many options do not work or work badly Tipically big data

Why I chose Statgraphics

Commentaires : The ability to use valid statistics in non-traditional manufacturing environments where your basic X-Bar R charts are not valid. Batch processes. Autocorrelated processes. Non-Normal capability analysis. Statgraphics gives you the ability to analyze and interpret circumstances and manufacturing issues that are not always straightforward or "normal".

Avantages :

I have been using Statgraphics software in it's evolving forms for many years and have pulled it into every company I have worked at - across industries. There are several features that make this a must have software in every manufacturing environment. It is a powerful package that has all the tools needed for the advanced statistician, but is user friendly enough for those who may only have a rudimentary understanding of statistical techniques and premises. The stat-advisor, confirms the experience of experts while guiding the less experienced with the knowledge of when a statistical technique or method is valid or not, or under what premise the analysis is valid. Statgraphics has helped me throughout my professional quality career to gain knowledge and experience that has allowed me to use these powerful tools to improve processes, reduce scrap, and provide data-based advice.

Inconvénients :

Pricey - but worth it. It is less a function of cost and more a function of value.

too many bugs - bad graphics

Avantages :

simple usage, many procedures, compatibility with other programs

Inconvénients :

full of bugs - time consuming to figure out how to overcome this.

Applied statistical analysis for the masses

Commentaires : Extremely pleased and satisfied. Our office was, and remains, an innovator by applying statistical analyses (especially regression) to mass appraisal for real property tax assessments. It has also proved invaluable for fee appraisals by determining whether functional utility variables, e.g., car parking, number of baths, building square footage, walk-out basement, etc. provide value in a neighborhood and, if they do, by what dollar amount. That quantitative basis is a very powerful asset especially for valuation assignments where expert witness testimony in litigation is involved.

Avantages :

Its StatAdvisor which translates high-level statistical analysis into plain English readers and users can digest and use. This was the program's main attraction and selling point over the competition because it would be used by Deputy Assessors who had no background whatsoever in statistics. My Deputies went from complete neophytes to skilled users during our first general assessment. Now, four years later, they are digging-in much deeper given their confidence gained by not being made to feel ignorant or inadequate as they learned how to properly apply Statgraphics' broad range of statistical techniques we use.

Inconvénients :

Somewhat clumsy performance when all five of us are hitting it hard. At some times, the program seems to get narcoleptic or confused presenting incorrect output. Deleting and recreating that process fixes the problem.

Statgraphics Only Glorious way to do certain stat analyses

Commentaires : Wonderful experience. We use it for drug Shelf Life determination and calculating Process Capability indices.

Avantages :

Exceptionally superb customer service. Statgraphics is simple, easy to use, and it is very versatile. It provides some features not available in any other software, e.g Comparison of Regression Slopes, QFD Matrix, Acceptance Sampling chart. Copying results into Report Generator is very convenient. Reliability and distribution fitting functions are very elaborate. Result interpretation is very helpful representative is highly knowledgeable.

Inconvénients :

Help function used to provide Data Tables. Now I do not have access to data table files. Minitab has TEXT functions such as WORD to extract words . This software does not. Graphic editing is cumbersome. Graphics should provide a foot note of which Data table was used to create results. In SPC command it does not store results of such as UCL, LCL. (Minitab does). It does not store commands used. Do not know if Macro can be used for repeat analysis.

Using Stat graphics Centurion

Commentaires : I have performed all validation analyzes, stability tests, experiment design, and trend analysis associated with the pharmaceutical industry.

Avantages :

1. Intuitive, integrated and easy to use graphical interface. 2. One-click complex statistical procedures .. And beautiful and customizable graphics.

Inconvénients :

The time I have been using stagraphics I have not found any disadvantages

Statgraphics for environmental analysis

Commentaires : I used it to check environmental monitoring data for problems and to process other data sets. All the applications were simple and now I have a reputation for being a statistics guru.

Avantages :

The stat advisor feature explains the results technically but also so that I can understand them. Importantly, those results show whether the statistics I am using are meaningful in ways that I would not normally realize because the summary includes tests on the data to determine if the statistic is applied correctly. This feature also makes presenting the results simple if you just cut and paste the text.

Inconvénients :

There is no way that I understand to process data before applying the statistics. A new feature to offer that option using the R language is available now but I don't know R

Análisis de Datos

Commentaires : a un comienzo me fui muy difícil deducir su funcionalidad en especifico para cada parte del programa, con la ayuda de videos en el internet pude deducir algunas de sus funciones. ahora tengo un manejo mas fluido, sin embargo aun hay mas opciones del programa que no las entiendo para que sirven y como se usan.

Avantages :

Su aplicación para la interpretación de experimentos con el uso de tratamientos y sus respuestas (causa - efecto)

Inconvénients :

tiene varias opciones, pero se requiere de tutoría para saber bien, como funciona y para que sirve para opción del programa.

Statgraphics Software for Administrators

Avantages :

Very easy installation and administration of the software for the Network Installation, once setup it is very hands off and runs quickly off of the server to each of the desktops/users.

Inconvénients :

The activation process can take a little getting used to, but customer service works through any issues that arise quickly.

Statgraphics is a very valuable tool

Commentaires : Statgraphics is a very good statistical program package. The functionality of Statgraphics is so rich that it is not easy to cover or use every one within a short time period. (I had to deliver university lectures on the design and analysis of experiments, where Statgraphics proved to be very useful. I also do some programming using SAS Base, SAS Stats, SAS EG, Stata and several R packages.) I recommend Statgraphics for people who want to do various statistical analyses.

Avantages :

Very rich functionality. Relatively easy to use. Needs knowledge of statistical methods. Very nice graphics. Very strong in certain areas, where other statistical packages are not so strong, e.g. design of experiments, etc. There is an interface within Sttgraphics to using R packages. Very good teaching materials are available of the user. Statgraphics provided well designed free courses to help users understanding how to solve certain statistical problems regularly.

Inconvénients :

There was no such feature of Statgraphics I did not like.

Easy and quixk

Avantages :

Statgraphics makes it easy to test a variety of statistical methods at the click of a button. It’s easy to get data into and easy to interpret results.

Inconvénients :

There are some tests I would like to have, like more non-parametric options.

at a glance

Avantages :

the catchy graphic representation of numerical issues

Inconvénients :

missing shortcut commands in the tableau

Meeting the new-age data analysis and modelling needs with Statgraphics for human advancement

Commentaires : I do data modelling with Statgraphics. I am happy using it. I used it doing my M.Sc Thesis, it really helped me

Avantages :

I sincerely like how the software Statgraphics can do a lot of statistical analysis and modelling. Please keep it up

Inconvénients :

Please add all features to all version. Windrose is not in old version. I love using Windrose to modell air pollution. Please do this, and help the us the users

User review

Avantages :

- Help function is very useful, a lot of detail description can be found offline. - Report function is also easy to use

Inconvénients :

- A little difficult to start using. There are a lot of functions to choose from. It would be nice to have a guide start for beginner user.

Great, user friendly, powerful software

Avantages :

Statgraphics provides a very straightforward way for me to carry out the ANOVA analysis I regularly need to carry out on my datasets. I've tried a number of other packages in recent years, and none o those has been able to match Statgraphics for the ease of use.

Inconvénients :

Nothing really - I have yet to come across anything that I need to do but can't.
