Over Minitab
Krachtige statistische software die iedereen kan gebruiken om gegevens te analyseren en zinvolle oplossingen te vinden voor hun moeilijkste zakelijke problemen.
Minitab has made it so easy to analyze the data. It was one of the first statistics software that I had used and found its features and interface so user friendly.
That was crucial feature for educational purposes. There is no way to properly organize my output project to be presented to course instructor.

One of the statistical analysis software that I used every week
Opmerkingen: Overall my experience with Minitab is very positive. It helps me to perform my job more efficiently as data driven conclusion or reports are very well accepted by many people especially management.
Pluspunten:
I like Minitab for its easy navigation and the layout or its dashboard information. Analysis reports are being summarized very neat and helping users to understand what the data is telling easily.
Minpunten:
Online licensing is the least that I like about this software. Currently I am using online license which means I have to be online to use Minitab which is very inconvenient for me.
Minitab for Process/Product Improvement
Opmerkingen: Minitab is a statistical software useful for presentation and evaluation of acquired data. It guarantees that the data for analysis is reliable and accurately calculated because it is computer-based. The controls for graphs and charts, fundamental statistics, and analysis of variance are some of the most useful components of this software for me.In my college years, Excel is what I used to display the statistical graphics for our presentations, but after learning how to use Minitab while working in the field, I find it to be more practical since regressions, standard deviation, or any other statistical data don't need to be manually computed.The graph and chart controls and analysis of variance are two features I use frequently in this software. By combining these two, we can easily identify the outlier or significant defect that adds to our process' manufacturing loss. The assistance of statistics, hypothesis testing, and statistical display provided by this application considerably enhances our process and final product. Additionally, the company practices Lean Six Sigma, which mandates the use of Minitab to represent statistical data for simple analysis and interpretation in order to reduce errors and defects.
Pluspunten:
1.Provides statistics automatically2.ANOVA, descriptive analysis, measurement system analysis, and other improved statistical analysis tools are included.3.Accurate Data Importing4.With Statistical Data Inference
Minpunten:
1.The range of statistical analyses is not comparable to SPSS and SAS.2.The user interface of this software can be a little bit difficult if you are unfamiliar with statistical techniques.3.Less frequently used for numerical and mathematical analysis

Good tools for researchers, analyst
Opmerkingen: We have been using this software for more than 10 years in the company. It very helpful for our improvement projects. However, that was not easy when we think to use the output from Minitab to apply in our manufacturing information system or think how to apply the advantage of Minitab to our big-data.
Pluspunten:
- Very common tool and that can be used for root cause analysis, problem solver and especially in the project needs to work with data (6 Sigma projects) - The guideline and assistance function in the tool is quite helpful for the beginner - Customer support is great as you can call, email and they can work out with you for the solution quickly. - The output/report makes sense with all logic and statistics result
Minpunten:
- The learning curve is quite long, needs to invest both time/money to know how to use the tool efficiently - The graph/report output is not perfect and sometimes it requires time to make it up - Big gap to integrate with other systems, meaning you only use this offline, no options to interface with other databases. That also shows the limitation when import/export file.
Great software for data visualization in scientific research work
Opmerkingen: Great tool for statistical analysis, prediction, plotting of data and easy to learn to use. Lots of tutorials are available to use this software effectively.
Pluspunten:
For my research work, I have to analyze the data and visualize the results to showcase my research outcome. I always prefer to use software like Minitab for easily showing the output of experiment. It has enriched library and you can plot anything from your available data.
Minpunten:
Minitab is a lightweight software but sometimes you may face difficulty to handle large size data to plot. It got fridge sometimes to work with huge database of millions of information.
Suitable software for engineers
Opmerkingen: I have enjoy using this software for planing several optimal design and also regression modeling. I appreciate providing the predicted R-Square as an useful option in the output of regression analysis.
Pluspunten:
There are many statistical software in the market but Minitab is specially designed for engineers. It has a very advanced capability in design and analysis of experiment.
Minpunten:
The design of this software user interface is so classic. So, maybe using another framework for making the user interface more attractive is needed.
Fantastic functionality with a steep learning curve
Opmerkingen: Overall positive. Despite needing time to learn it, it was still faster than alternatives to get the data gathered and into a presentable format.
Pluspunten:
The amount you can do with the program cannot be understated, it makes data crunching so much easier. If you need to analyze and present data, I haven't found a better program.
Minpunten:
Despite the upside, a lot of the functionality needs to be taught to you by a peer or by a tutorial. The interworkings were not that clear to me at first.
Best program for charts and analysis
Pluspunten:
Easy to apply formulas and analysis, very user friendly. Charts very easy to read.
Minpunten:
Haven't found anything bad yet. This program is awesome.
Lean Black Belt must have
Opmerkingen: I have solved several situations related to production process. With the graphs, visuals and statistics I can understand the current process and identify if the process is in control or not. As a Lean Black Belt it is a must have.
Pluspunten:
If you are a lean expert you must have this application. As a Black Belt, I need this to be able to take decisions for improvement projects. This helps you understand the process and make possible predictions. Also the graphs and visuals helps you explain the process to the top management and others. It is great to see trends and identify major offenders.
Minpunten:
To use the application probably you must need a training from an expert to have a better understanding of all features. And another thing is you must know basic concepts of statistics.

Incredible software for performing statistical and predictive analysis
Opmerkingen: Overall, I have had great experience using minitab, the software is incredibly powerful for predictive analysis, design of experiments and data visualization
Pluspunten:
The ease of use, the comments on some output, the annotations, predictive analytics and the formatting of tables and charts.
Minpunten:
Minitab is Expensive though its worth the price

What I like most about Minitab is the amount of data handling features.
Opmerkingen: I was very happy when I was able to analyze and find solutions to process problems so quickly and without having to use multiple tools as I did before. Before, I used a tool to record data, another to analyze and process and another to generate reports. I recommend it to everyone and I'm sure you'll be able to generate many productivity boosting results with this software.
Pluspunten:
What I like most about Minitab is the amount of data handling features. It is also very easy to copy and paste data from other Windows software reducing data transfer time.
Minpunten:
I have nothing to complain about, I liked everything I saw and used.
Minitab is a great helper in statistical data analysis for decision making.
Opmerkingen: Minitab is a fundamental piece for the realization of the projects according to the pre-defined goals.
Pluspunten:
The extraction of the detailed and complete analysis in seconds.
Minpunten:
Some filling rules, confuse me because of excel.
Discovering the Excellence of Minitab
Opmerkingen: I have been steadily employing this software for the past two years for Civil/manufacturing research purposes, and I'm also guiding our students to leverage this tool to generate better outcomes. Predictive tool study and time series intelligence are the most useful capabilities for this program
Pluspunten:
The most remarkable platform for acquiring knowledge and examining gives you the capability to refine the configurations with amazingly exact diagrams and graphs. Examine the results or data with their optimal figures on this practical application.
Minpunten:
This system might incorporate some further essential features to augment its suppleness and enhance the standard of the diagrams and graphs it produces for investigation applications, rendering it more alluring and brilliant for scientists and analytic engineers.
Minitab- A great tool for statistical data analysis
Opmerkingen: Great tool for statistical data analysis and visualization. It has great features and does not require any special training. I found it user-friendly and easy to use. A free trial is available, however, it is worthful to buy a license.
Pluspunten:
Great features of presenting statistical data with plots.Provides results quickly.User-friendly and easy to use.Good customer support
Minpunten:
Limited plotting options and some missing features as compared to other programs such as Excel.
An Effective Statistical Analysis Software
Opmerkingen: Overall, Minitab is a great statistical tool for complicated and big data analysis. The graphs and charts are visually appealing. There are a lot of analysis you can make and base your decisions on. It's a bit pricey but I think it's worth it for long time use.
Pluspunten:
The data visualization is beyond amazing. It is color-coded and in 3D. Regression analysis is included in the data analysis so it is easier to sort variables. There are a lot of statistical analysis available so this application is great for analyzing big and complicated data.
Minpunten:
The price is a bit high and licensing is difficult. When purchased for corporate use, you need to connect to the company's VPN in order to use it. You can't use it offline.
Minitab is the best statistical analysis tool
Opmerkingen: Overall, i love to use it for my research works. It helps me to prepare research reports and forecasting the outcome of research works.
Pluspunten:
It's a good tool for researcher like me to visualize research Results. It has lots of options to plot the information easily. Good user interface and easy to use.
Minpunten:
Sometimes it fridges due to large data in data set. It slows down the performance while processing large information.
Sufficient functions for most of my statistical analysis
Opmerkingen: Minitab is easy to use since its user interface is not complex. My overall experience on Minitab is good and will renew my license in the future.
Pluspunten:
1. Minitab provides most of the functions in my daily work. For example, Design of Experiments, gauge R&R, ANOVA, distributions fitting, hypothesis tests, regression, Power and Sample Size, and Assistant. 2. I like the Assistant function the most because it can help me choose a proper approach to analyze a data set. The results from the Assistant reports are also easy to be understood and clear. 3. After each analysis, Minitab output results by text and figures. This can help me to understand the physical significance of the results and to report/visualize the data/results to my manager.
Minpunten:
Although Minitab outputs statistical results in plots and figures, the formats, fonts, and designs of the figures and the plots can be improved to be more aesthetic. Maybe Minitab's developing team can try to use more AI to improve the outputs of the plots and figures.
Very good for descriptive and inferential analysis
Opmerkingen: I use minitab 18 very often to analyze process variations of food production plant, also it is used to report the improvements on any process based on any change.
Pluspunten:
Minitab offers a very good end user experience for descriptive and inferential analysis. Also minitab product help tutorials are very good and well explained that cover most of the possible doubts. The interpretation of results that minitab provides on integral analysis like Capability analysis or hypothesis testing is very useful for sharing with management.
Minpunten:
*Developing scripts on minitab is not as intuitive as it should be so doing repetitive task can be a headache. *Also querying data from an external data source could be easier, at this moment requires a well defined DSN file and adjusting filters on data to retrieve could be also easier. *There are not enough modeling methods on minitab
I use this analysis software with my AP Statistics students and have used it for many years.
Opmerkingen: The program allows my students to work with very large data sets and allows me to assess their analyses very easily.
Pluspunten:
I liked the package because it was a professional use package (not just deigned for classroom use) and it was still easy enough for my students to use. There is a small learning curve to overcome, but my students adapt to the package very quickly. The iterations I have used started with version 12 and I am now using version 17. They product has become more streamlined over the years and more user friendly as well. The support I have received from Minitab has been excellent and utilizing the license server for my lab allows me to deploy the package to more computers. That is a real plus when one machine goes down and I need to use all my licenses.
Minpunten:
Some of the graphical outputs are still not as good as MS Excel, but they have been improving over the years. I wish it could do a back-to-back stem plot, but that's a minor inconvenience.
Minitab Review
Opmerkingen: My overall experience was good with Minitab application
Pluspunten:
One of the most likeable feature of Minitab according to me is "Deriving Tolerance Limits for Non-normal distributions"
Minpunten:
One thing which I feel that Minitab lacks is feature related Multivariate data analysis like Batch Evolution Models, contribution plots etc.
Statistical quality control, such as philosophy and practical tool
Pluspunten:
Minitab facilitates processing, very quickly for data analysis and the clarity of the graphics are better than those of SPSS. Its statistical tools are precise and easy to use, allowing us to access a better knowledge of the information contained in the data, with an important saving of time in the collection, analysis and interpretation cycle. You can work something basic starting with the descriptive statistics to statistical methods for predictions such as regression models, ANOVA, Time Series and experiment designs.
Minpunten:
The variety of statistical analysis that Minitab can perform, It Is Not As Wide As SPSS And SAS. What It Means That For Research Fields Applied With Specialized Techniques, for example, it is not the ideal option for neural networks in the field of artificial intelligence or in the case of geostatistics, Since this type of analysis will have to be programmed through the macro system. While Macros Language is Powerful, it is a Long Time Investment for Complex Procedures.
This is an excellent product for statistical-based analysis.
Pluspunten:
What I like most about this product is all of the functionalities available for performing statistical analysis on both real-world data and theoretical studies. The built-in functions and graphs are absolutely excellent and save a lot of time by automatically doing computations on data sets that would otherwise require additional software for computation. It is very easy to input the data and then have so many different options for essentially "auto-analyzing" the data through the large variety of statistic tools made available with this program. I am yet to hear of another program geared to this level with statistical analysis tools.
Minpunten:
What I like least about this software is the way that some of the graphs are generated. Sometimes graphs with many data points may come out very messy and crowded and I feel that steps could be taken to improve the aesthetics of such graphs as essentially the point of graphs is to allow the reader to have a good visual with the behavior of the data or whatever it might be which is being presented on the graph. As such, I feel that better aesthetics are critical for communicating this information.
Best way to represent data
Opmerkingen: Exceptional in giving accurate results
Pluspunten:
Results can be interpreted quickly since the software gives results in no time
Minpunten:
For some reason it is not supported in some of my devices
Good Standalone
Opmerkingen:
If you need a statistical software that stands alone from any other system. Minitab is viable option. But, if you need it to tie to other systems to be feed the data, don't go this route. You can import data manually and copy manually, but that is it. This works the same way on export. So in other words, it is like a fancy calculator that you have sitting on your desk.
Over the years they have improved their navigation thru their menus, and added some functionality to it, but still lacks to other software packages.
If you have two or more systems that you use regularly (e.g. Virtual machine and Desktop Workstation), your license only supports one system. If you need it on both, you have to purchase a separate license. Even Autodesk has figured this out to not be a very viable option for their customers.
Be cautious about their training packages. You are not allowed to purchase a course, but only an allotted time for a course. So like most work environments, work can take priority over completing a course. So, if you do not complete it in time, you miss out.
It was a good statistical software back in their early years, but never kept up with technology and demand of the customers. And, it still has its old ghost that never were worked out of the system.
I don't suggest using this. Go with some other system that someone suggests highly, that meets the demands of this age, not an age gone past.

PD, thank you for sharing your perspective on Minitab. Per your comment about using multiple systems, please use Help > Licensing > Move to transfer a single active license between multiple computers, at no extra charge. Only a single license can be active at any given time per the single-user license agreement, and we also offer multi-user licenses if that better meets your needs. And you can fortunately integrate Minitab with other systems to automatically import data, then create charts, run stats, etc. For assistance, please contact Tech Support at 814-231-2682.
Modest app for Statistical data analysis
Opmerkingen: Easy and smooth use for day-to-day analysis.
Pluspunten:
This product is easy to use and click and go result. Love this app for better visualization.
Minpunten:
More feature update with better pricing. Although it is moderate price.
Great Statistics Software
Opmerkingen: I've used several versions of Minitab for the past few years and I've noticed considerable improvement. It offers a wide variety of tools that allow you to work with data and build charts and graphs for data analytics.
Pluspunten:
Even if you don't have too much knowledge in statistics, you can get started using it very quickly. First time users won't have a hard navigating the program since its menus are well organized and clear and they allow you to find what you're looking for very quickly. It has a lot of data visualization features, like scattered plots, histograms and probability density functions.
Minpunten:
Although it is easy for first time users, it will take you a lot of time to actually take advantage of every feature in Minitab. Also, even tho it is a great software, it is not as complete as other programs like JMP and SAS
