"Last year, when I reviewed Statistica 4.5, I received comments from (PC)3 members, 'Gee, Harvey, I need a program to do statistical analysis, but a $1,000 price tag is out of my league.' Have no fear, I have discovered what I think is the world's best bargain in statistical software: StatMost 2.0 for Windows. ... In one integrated package, you can tabulate or import data in datasheet window, do fancy mathematical or statistical analysis on that data set, and plot the results with a fast and powerful graphics engine."
--- Harvey Kaye, Review in INSIGHT, New York, Feb. 1995

"StatMost is slick! If you need a general purpose statistical and data analysis package that fully exploits the capabilities of Windows, then look this product over. If you need this and well-designed tools with which to dress up your data graphics for presentations, then StatMost could be your tool of choice."
--- Prof. B. Lewis, Cultural Anthropology Methods, Feb. 1995

"The good news is that software combining the two primary features mentioned above -- connectivity and sophisticated plotting -- aren't expensive. ... A good example is Ver 2 of DataMost's StatMost for Windows."
--- Michael L. Porter, Survey in PE&IN, March 1995

"... StatMost gets high marks for delivering on what it promises. It is a powerful program that expands upon statistical tools used in other packages. It is a spreadsheet, data analysis, and plotting program in one."
--- J. Whitesell, J. of the American Chemical Society, June 1995

"One of the main advantages of this package is an incorporated graphics capability. The sheer number of graphics options is impressive, from simple plots, pie charts, and line graphs through pyramid charts and complex 3-D area charts and surface graphs. It is easy to label axes and invoke many options to make the graphs look pretty for presentations or manuscripts. ... It is easy to learn, easy to use, reasonably comprehensive, and not outrageously expensive."
--- Review in J. of Marketing Research, Sept. 1995

"StatMost is a good, powerful, low-cost choice for anyone looking for a general purpose statistical processor. ... As a personal verdict, I shall be using it from now on ..."
--- Felix Grant, Review in Scientific Computing World, April 1996

"Thank you for StatMost. It's great, simple to use, very comprehensive, quick, and fun! I had it for a few days, read it when I had the time, spend an hour doing a couple of lessons from the tutorial, then plunged right in and did a score of different analyses over the weekend. You also have an excellent manual, readable, clear, detailed."
--- Dr. Michael Bernet, New York, 1995

"In January I bought StatMost 2.5 and recently purchased the new 2.5 extended version. I normally use SPSS in my research, but I am impressed with the ease of use of StatMost and the flexibility of the graphics. Because of this, I would like to use the new version of StatMost in classes I am teaching this summer."
--- Dr. Phyllis Kuehn, California State Univ, Fresno, CA, May 1995

"I have been a StatMost user for nearly one year, and have just received my StatMost 3.0 upgrade offer, and although I have not tried the new release, I must say I am pleased with the progress that DataMost has made with its product. I have had extensive background using SAS and SPSS, and the performance of StatMost is superior to them in most respects, while at the same time being much more affordable. I have also found its presentation graphics to be the best I have used."
--- Dr. Edward Monahan, Cheshire, CT, Oct. 1995

"Again, thanks for your support and for developing such a great product for student and faculty as well. ... So your StatMost development is timely and hopefully you'll reap the rewards for your Windows and extended versions as well."
--- Prof. A. L. Schroeder, Long Beach City College, CA, April 1996
