5.0

Joe M.: Hi, I'm Joe. I'm a lead engineer. I'd give Minitab a five out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. Before Minitab, we used Excel. We switched from Excel to Minitab just for the more powerful analytical tools and the ease of creating charts. We chose Minitab because we needed a way to do more powerful analytics without taking the time to generate macros as well as generating nice-looking charts that could easily be put into reports. Minitab was really easy to get started to use. It functions a lot like Excel. You do need to have some background knowledge and statistics, but it's really easy to get started with. I'd really recommend Minitab, especially if you're looking for more powerful charts, but you do need to have a background in statistics to really utilize it.
