I migrated from older Statview and Systat, a great move. Pros One feature I like very much about XLSTAT is that it is an excel add-in and works very well with several of Excel´s features. The software is very poweful, does all of the analyses an ecologist and animal behaviorist would need. Specially, since it can integrate R scripts. This flexibility is probably its greatest feature. It is also easy to use with a great user-interface. Cons The standard graphs could be more flexible and maleable, but I guess that is the function of Sigmaplot. Switched from [SigmaPlot](https://www.capterra.com/p/102698/SigmaPlot/) price is lower fpr XLSTAT and systat was going to be discontinued.

IO Irene O. Research Staff Research ### "XLSTAT review\_Irene" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 23, 2025 Very great. The XLSTAT is so helpful to me. The best part is where Sen's slope test is incorporated in Mann-Kendall analysis, an aspect often missing in great softwares like SAS. Pros Easy to follow and simplifies complex analysis. The analysis commands are easy to locate and use. The signing in feature boosts security. Cons The limitations on graphics and data visualization as it requires additional purchase of Zenplot. It is restricted to one machine so I have to carry my laptop to wherever I need to work.
