### "Robust, intuitive, a great value"

January 28, 2026

5.0

My experience has been excellent. EnginRooms suite of tools are robust enough to support substantial analytical work, including DOE, yet the platform remains intuitive and offers helpful prompts for new users. It delivers exceptional value.

Pros

As a Lean Six Sigma trainer and coach, I value how EngineRoom is designed to guide a user through their problem-solving journey. The tool selection suggestions for each stage of DMAIC are right on point.

Cons

Like many browser‑based applications, it has a few usability quirks. At times, browser settings may need adjustment to display all interface options. I’d also welcome future enhancements that make exporting visualizations more seamless.

The difference in cost, when compared to available features did not justify continuing with Minitab.

### "MoreSteam EngineRoom: A Must-Have for Continuous Improvement Practitioners"

August 5, 2025

5.0

100% satisfied, ER meets all the critical to quality characteristics for our organization. Which I can easily map out in a CTQC tree in EnginerRoom!

Pros

MoreSteam EngineRoom is a must have for continuous improvement practitioners. What sets it apart is how seamlessly it integrates all the tools needed, from basic data analysis, process maps, charter development, to advanced statistical methods, into one intuitive, easy-to-use platform. I find so easy to use, whether you're a White Belt just getting started or a seasoned Black Belt, EngineRoom makes learning and applying Lean Six Sigma tools straightforward and effective. EngineRoom is more than just a toolbox. The inclusion of critical thinking questions throughout the platform guides users through the problem-solving process in a structured and thoughtful way. This makes it an excellent learning tool as well as a practical one. This makes teaching classes as a Master Black Belt so much more effective. The customer support is top-notch, and I truly appreciate how MoreSteam consistently seeks user feedback and uses it to enhance the platform. They’re not just offering software; they’re building a continually improving the experience. EngineRoom combines multiple software into one, creating exceptional value. Highly recommended for any organization committed to driving operational excellence.

Cons

That some people don't understand that everything you can do in other packages can be done in EngineRoom.

### "Very good tools, but needs continuous improvement to meet customer expectations"

February 8, 2026

Experience has been excellent in learning lean sigma tools that can do in minutes that would take hours in Google Sheet or Excel

Pros

User tech support by email is very responsive Toolset is extremely helpful for small lean sigma projects The simulation tool is amazing for as-is & to-be process modeling The new & well-intentioned "Wexie" AI helper chatbot is sometimes accurate; and often directionally correct.

Cons

User Interface \[UI\] is buggy; data sets need to be small; additional preprocessing is often needed in Google Sheet or Excel

### "Using Moresteam to teach Six Sigma to our Stars in Ghana."

December 27, 2025

5.0

I am a retired Quality consultant, now 77 and rusty with tech. Was hard for me. I am president of Tomorrow's Stars charity www.tstars.org and friend of \[sensitive content hidden\]. I have 4 students in Ghana using the program as a donation, thank you very much. I help them with six sigma theory, project selection, then selecting tools and querying/interpreting the data. Worked very well for me as a coach for them. I didn't use the Engine Room support but my students did.

Pros

It is extraordinarily powerful with simple and complex statistical tools. Even beyond the tools introduced in Moresteam. The analysis is presented with the statistics so that you knowledge level is challenged. Very impressed as a retired six sigma black belt and consultant.

Cons

My age, experience and purpose!! I struggled with moving the data around and storing studies. Once I got to the analysis, it was very useful as a student and coach. See below.

### "Powerful Tool for Data-Driven Decision Making with Room to Grow"

August 6, 2025

4.0

EngineRoom has been a valuable tool in our operational improvement projects. It simplifies complex statistical analysis and makes process improvement data more accessible for non-technical users. With integrated dashboards and clean visualization, it’s easy to present data to stakeholders. While there are areas for improvement—particularly in advanced features and support—the overall value for money is strong. We've been able to drive measurable improvements in quality and efficiency thanks to the insights EngineRoom helped us uncover.

Pros

Intuitive user interface and easy navigation across statistical tools Great selection of templates and data analysis functions Dashboards are clean and customizable Excellent for Lean Six Sigma and continuous improvement projects Cloud-based access allows for easy team collaboration It is Value for Money

Cons

Some advanced statistical features require manual calculation or external tools Limited flexibility in visual customization (chart styles, themes, etc.) Learning curve can be a bit steep for users without a statistics background Customer support response time could be faster

### "Engineroom. A modern upgrade from Minitab."

August 5, 2025

5.0

We are very happy that we made the switch from Minitab to Engineroom because of the better cost and it's integration with Traction.

Pros

Engineroom is extremely user friendly and is very straightforward for our project owners to use. The support team is very helpful as well.

Cons

There is not much to list as far as cons for Engineroom. It is very well integrated with Traction. It is not user customizable which might be an issue for some.

### "A Utility Tool that gets you places - Engine Room"

August 6, 2025

5.0

An overall excellent experience with the tool and I would highly recommend it to aspiring corporates/collogues. I've gained much more deeper insights on the uniquely designed tools and features and helps a lot in my professional path.

Pros

Engine room is a one-stop solution with value for money solutions for the corporates. It enables Lean Six Sigma tool, seamlessly embedded in Excel or through a cloud‑based mechanism, well suited for DMAIC and other improvement methodologies A super useful tool to the highly motivated engineers to collaborate and enhance effectiveness

Cons

I feel it needs a bit more enhancements in the data dashboards, although the learning curve designed on the tool is very effective to precisely understand and obtain data analysis Not yet used the dashboard data feature, but it seems to be not much eye catching for first time users.

### "Great Value and Great Customer Support"

July 29, 2025

5.0

Overall, the experience has been very positive. It is easy to use. Customer support is great, and the value proposition for EngineRoom cannot be beaten.

Pros

Customer Support has been fantastic. Whenever, I was hung up on something, MoreSteam helped me right away by scheduling a meeting with me and talking me through it. I love how Process Playground is tied into EngineRoom. It allows me to jump from data analysis to event simulations seamlessly.

Cons

Although the process of doing the analysis is relatively straight forward and easy. There is a learning curve with what the tool is needing to do the analysis. I have had experience with SigmaXL and Minitab so retraining my brain to fit EngineRoom was an initial challenge. However, it is easy to overcome and now it is easy to do everything I need.

### "Great features and very user friendly. "

July 29, 2025

5.0

Overall experience was good., I will love to continue using it. This software is much user friendly and feature rich as compared to other statistical softwares.

Pros

It has almost all the functions needed for statistical analysis. Much easier to perform the analysis than using excel or other softwares. It also asks for the particular data needed for the required for the analysis, feature not seen in other softwares.

Cons

I do not have a lot of cons to list. My overall experience was positive. Only thing I can mention is that it takes some time to learn. But once learned, it is quite easy.

### "EngineRoom: A Delightful Experience"

February 19, 2026

5.0

I find EngineRoom to be a delightful experience and very attractive to those who are learning the power of data analytics.

Pros

The statistical side of EngineRoom is very solid, but I am impressed with the visual experience. This includes ease of use with click and drag data entry and attractive easy to see output. And it includes simulation, not just Monte Carlo but discrete events. It fully integrates with Lean and Six Sigma methodologies with insights from AI.

Cons

At present the number of independent variables in multiple linear regression is limited to 10, but this is enough for most applications. And I hope EngineRoom will continue to build on its Machine Learning capabilities. This kind of predictive analysis is becoming more and more important in Six Sigma methodology.

September 7, 2024

5.0

Very practical and functional and easy to learn

Pros

Ease of use- its touch screen capable statistics! (Always reminds me of the movie "Minority Report")

Cons

no major complaints. It might be cool to have a "lite" version for lower level staff to experience and geared for them.

### "Great Product and Service!!"

June 4, 2024

5.0

It has been excellent. Great product and service. With new updates, it gets better over time. Amazing value. I highly recommend EngineRoom

Pros

The ease of use and the SaS model. Graphically beautiful with excellent UI. Really cool extra features not in other stats software (templates for FMEA, Control Plans, C&E, DFSS Tools., Process Simulators...). Service has also been excellent!

Cons

Overall, very little. Minor features such as being able to curve regressions lines to better fit data (need to square manually instead).

Reason for choosing EngineRoom

SaS model, value, UI, Graphical Interface

February 16, 2024

5.0

Very good. Especially the Technical support.

Pros

EngineRoom is specifically designed for Six Sigma and more. This makes using the software easy to lecture and train.

Cons

Actually nothing. In the beginning of 2019, I started using EngineRoom and found that there were a few thigs EngineRoom did not provide e.g., Response Optimiser etc. However, in the 5 years I've been using the EngineRoom the software has developed very well.

Cost. The MiniTab cost became inaccessible for individuals, and I had to pay the students price even though I was bringing up to 30 students a year to MiniTab.

### "Valuable tool for in depth statistical analysis and visualization"

January 17, 2024

5.0

EngineRoom has come a long way since I began using it. MoreSteam is very serious about feedback and incorporates improvements continually. It's the perfect application for Green Belt candidates to learn about statistical analysis.

Pros

It's built to walk you through what data is needed for each tool. It has extensive capabilities, typically more than I need for the type of analysis I'm doing but I love knowing I have all the different options. It's much more powerful than typical stat package add-ons to programs like Excel.

Cons

It can be difficult to learn initially as certain things aren't the most intuitive. However, once you learn to navigate EngineRoom I find it quite user-friendly.

August 4, 2025

5.0

Overall, my experiencie with EngineRoom has been very positive. It has simplified how we approach data analysis and process improvement within our team.

Pros

I really liked the drag and drop interface, I find it incredibly intuitive, making it much easier to use complex statistical tools without the need of being an expert.

Cons

While it is intuitive on the use of tools, the initial learning curve to get the most out of the statistical functions can be a bit steep.

July 29, 2025

Overall, I am very pleased with EngineRoom. I learned a lot of useful information that I have used multiple times at my job.

Pros

I enjoyed the lessons and the ability to apply what I learned in a sandbox-style environment. The lessons were clear and concise and able to be completed at your own pace.

Cons

I think a few of the lessons, especially the later ones, started to drag on. I feel like each one covered more than one topic and started to jumble together. I wish they were broken up a bit better.

### "Positive Outlooks on EngineRoom!"

August 5, 2025

4.0

My overall experience with EngineRoom was a positive one! It successfully aided me in my journey of Yellow belt training

Pros

EngineRoom was great! If I wasn't 100% sure on a topic EngineRoom provided great deep dives and extra information to help me grasp the concepts

Cons

One thing I did not enjoy about EngineRoom was the quiz at the end of each chapter. One recommendation I would have is to provide different questions to answer after different attempts at the quizzes.

### "EngineRoom review Q3 2025"

July 29, 2025

5.0

I had a wonderful and comprehensive User Experience with EngineRoom during my lean yellow belt training. The exercises could be done directly on dashboard data that provide the context or offline exporting data to Excel. The latter file management based approach let you figure out a great value for money invested, by purchasing a product ready to provide great customer support. Several Data Dashboards are customizable to create the proper work environment.

Pros

EngineRoom has softened the learning curve of a lean methodology training organized by my company. This thanks to a great user experience and consistent samples on data analysis.

Cons

In one occasion I had to retake the exercise from the beginning due to an unexpected crash. Maybe this can be covered by some session saving on the cloud.

### "One Stop Shop for Process Improvement"

April 3, 2024

5.0

Pros

I love how EngineRoom brings together all the essential tools for Lean Six Sigma projects. Instead of using a software package for statistical analysis, one for process mapping, one for graphical analysis, one for building simulation models, and various other spreadsheets and templates in Word, Excel, etc. - EngineRoom has it in one package. The user interface is very simple to learn and teach, with a plethora of help files and video walkthroughs. Customer support is fast, friendly and extremely competent - not just on software, but process improvement as well - so when you need help, you are working with people who speak Lean Six Sigma language and understand where you are coming from. I could go on and on about the value of this product, but for the low price - it is worth purchasing just to try it - my bet is that you'll never switch to something else.

Cons

The data sheets do not have the formula functionality of Microsoft Excel, so some data formatting and scrubbing is easier outside of EngineRoom, prior to uploading. Considering everything that EngineRoom does so well, I am ok with this limited functionality. That being said, it seems there are enhancements being rolled out nearly every time I log so I know they are constantly enhancing the software.
