XLSTAT Products / General presentation
XLSTAT is a Microsoft Excel statistical add-in that has been developed since 1993 to enhance the analytical capabilities of Excel. XLSTAT is a modular statistical software built around XLSTAT-Pro - the core product of Addinsoft. XLSTAT relies on Excel for the input of data and the display of results, but the computations are done using autonomous software components. The use of Excel as an interface makes XLSTAT a user-friendly and highly efficient statistical and multivariate data analysis package. The quality of the computations is identical to that offered by classic scientific statistical analysis software.
A large range of modules can be added onto XLSTAT-Pro for specific analytical needs. In addition, we can tailor specific modules to your statistical business needs, ranging from the development of a function to the automation of routine analyses. This insures XLSTAT is always evolving to meet your statistical demands.

CCR / Correlated Component Regression software
The XLSTAT-CCR module focuses on regression analysis (linear regression, logistic regression, etc.) where a large number of correlated predictors may be available. On many data sets, Correlated Component Regression (CCR) has been shown to outperform penalized regression techniques such as Lasso, and other methods such as Naive Bayes and PLS regression. XLSTAT-CCR develops reliable regression models using CCR methods. CCR models may even include more predictors than cases, a situation that is impossible with traditional regression methods. CCR was developed by Dr. Jay Magidson for simultaneously estimating regression models and excluding irrelevant predictors. Reliable models are obtained using a fast algorithm that incorporates M-fold cross-validation for tuning model parameters (optimal number of predictors and amount of regularization).

Comments
Mathieu Leboulanger, Schneider Electric I have been looking for a statistics software with comprehensive functionalities to analyse time series and build models to predict our sales based on monthly macro indicators. Easy import/export from and to Excel was a must for me. The Excel addin solution of XLSTAT does much better than that. After 1 month evaluation, I'm purchasing a licence. Bravo!
Craig Alexander, PhD Student, Division of Archaeology, University of Cambridge As someone who has long used Excel for data storage and manipulation I welcome XLSTAT's excellent integration with Excel and the wide range of statistical functionality. The company has also been very responsive to requests and Thierry was kind enough to make a small change to the interface to give me access to a VCV matrix that I needed for a particular analysis. Overall I am delighted to have found XLSTAT and it has provided much of the analytical power for my PhD research.
John Petkov, University of South Australia While I have never been a fan of Excel for statistical analysis and have discouraged its use, XLSTAT takes things to a whole new level. The algorithms are robust and the ease of use is exceptionally easy. The help feature is also extensive and thorough. I have recommended this software to my colleagues and I would say that XLSTAT is my software of choice for many of my analyses. Thank you for an excellent product.
Paula Cullen I have been delighted with the program to date, and have found it easy to use, and of immense value to my data analysis. It is wonderful not to have to change data from one program to another to carry out analysis.
Hal MacFie Anne Hasted and I use XLSTAT for students to carry out exercises on our hands-on courses. Being inside Excel and with clearly defined dialogue boxes and a very good help system, we find that many attendees opt to buy a permanent license at the end of the course. The MX module has GPA, MFA, Penalty Analysis and Preference mapping and the output is clear, easy to explain and it is simple to paste into Powerpoint, so it is an essential part of our course and a very useful tool for a sensory and consumer scientist. I also use it myself for doing consultancy analyses!
Sarah M. Bharath, The University of the West Indies I have always had a difficult time with stats and statistical packages.
