If You're an Analyst Who Needs To...

1

Learn and Use Analytics

Want to learn and use data science (predictive analytics) and/or management science (prescriptive analytics)? We have powerful Excel-based tools, RASON modeling language, and learning resources for you.

Work with a Developer

Want to work with a developer in your company who doesn't use Excel, to turn your Excel model into a deployed application -- without rewriting it in a programming language? With RASON, we can make this radically simple.

Powerful, Comprehensive Predictive and Prescriptive Analytics, Made Easy in Excel

 
  • Solve the full range of optimization problems
  • Solve huge models with best-of-breed Solvers
  • Run high-speed Monte Carlo simulations
  • Solve stochastic optimization problems
 
  • Data Exploration and Feature Selection
  • Unsupervised Machine Learning
  • Classification and Prediction Algorithms
  • Time Series Forecasting Methods

 

Excel Solver compatible Use existing Solver models and VBA macros as-is, but solve faster -- just open your workbook and solve.
Solve large-scale linear and nonlinear models Solve models with thousands to millions of variables and constraints. Linear and quadratic, mixed-integer, smooth nonlinear, global optimization, non-smooth evolutionary, robust optimization and stochastic programming Solvers are all included.
Ultra-Fast Monte Carlo Simulation Easily define uncertain variables with sampling from 50 continuous, discrete and custom distributions, copulas and rank-order correlation, and distribution and correlation fitting.
Decision trees for complex decisions Build multi-stage decision trees with point-and-click ease, compute expected value and utility-based rollbacks, and incorporate decision trees in simulation and risk analysis.
Time series forecasting Apply the most popular exponential smoothing and Box-Jenkins (ARIMA) methods with seasonality to forecast time series, such as sales and inventory, from historical data.
Prediction and classification methods Use powerful multiple linear and logistic regression with variable selection, data mining methods like naive Bayes, CaRT, k-nearest neighbors and neural networks, and ensembles of multiple algorithms.
Much, much more This is just a brief overview -- see more extensive features -- and it's all included, even in our ultra-low-cost Analytic Solver Basic!

You Can Do This - We're Here To Help

 

Documentation From a simple Ribbon and Task Pane interface, to instant-access online Help, our 21-page QuickStart Guide, and over 1,800 pages of User and Reference Guides, we've got you covered.
Textbooks If our built-in documentation isn't enough, scores of textbooks for MBA analytics courses use Analytic Solver software throughout, with step-by-step instructions and example models.
Wizards Our Constraint Wizard helps you think through and then define the right constraints for your optimization model. Our Distribution Wizard does the same for probability distributions in your simulation model.
Guided Mode Guided Mode takes you step-by-step through automatic diagnosis of your optimization model, recommended Solver Engines, and interpreting result messages. Auto-Help Mode steps in only when a problem arises.
Live Chat Only Frontline Solvers offer quick access to Tech Support via Live Chat from inside Excel -- automatically passing error information to our support reps.
