Stata is a very good statistical software with full of advanced statistical methods and its use is easy because it is menu driven and it has many good accompany documents.
If you do not put it the right prompt in the codes you will produce a lot of errors coming up in your log and it can be very frustrating.
I have been using Stata for Panel data. It works like a charm, very easy to remember the code, and they have an amazing set of literature.
Second its too complicated due to its character.A small character error can leads towards baised results (due to human error).
Since, I have different gadgets; it is a great addition that it can be used with my Mac and my Windows. The price is pretty affordable if you are looking for an easy to use analytical system.
This software is costly, that is, if you are not given access by a university or research company, which provides difficulty in accessibility.
The online support for Stata in addition to the ability to search for help quickly is what I like most. It is a very intuitive approach.
Does not work well with large data sets and often crashes.
Ease of use, depth and breadth of techniques, impressive library of examples and “how to” papers, as well as outstanding support.
Lack of option to calculate and choose the optimal data series lag in regression analysis.
The use of this software with Excel is a great tool. There is great value in this product and it makes Excel a great tool for an Engineer.
Up to now, I am struggling in using NUMXL functions and tools.
Great support and timely - lots of useful videos to explain how to use it - enabling me to get up to speed in less than 30 mins. Great examples including example spreadsheets.
Correction of errors in data selection and choice of graphic displays.
Not only is the software leading edge, but our interactions with NUMXL staff have been excellent.
The #NUM! error is haunting me. Even when I use the Example files and try to reproduce the functions.
