University of the Incarnate Word
“We offer a master’s degree and a minor in Statistics, and in one of our courses students get to compare Minitab and several other statistical software packages. They like Minitab for its straightforward approach and easy-to-learn interface. Overwhelmingly, Minitab is the students’ favorite statistical software.”

LaVergne High School
“My students love Minitab! Although I make them complete the work by hand at first, they love the fact that the "grunt work" in their later assignments is completed by Minitab—and that frees us to focus on analyses and interpretations rather than calculations.”

"I enjoy seeing students awestruck by Minitab's power, range, and ease of use after attempting to use little Excel add-ons that come on the CDs in various statistical textbooks."

“I have been a Minitab user for more than 25 years, and use it on a daily basis to teach, consult and do research. For teaching, I find it user-friendly and straightforward. This is important because my students cannot afford to invest too much time learning how to use software, for they would not have time to learn Stats. Minitab Help menus are nicely explained and contain developed examples. Intro stat students can use its more elementary features. Advanced stat students can use Minitab’s DOE and modeling features. I also find Minitab has wide applications in research and consulting. If what I need is not directly there, I can build it easily, by using matrices or writing short programs (macros). I have always been able to analyze data to my satisfaction, and that of my customers. I would not hesitate to recommend Minitab.”

State University of New York
"The State University of New York has had an Annual Enterprise License for Minitab since 2002, and it’s been great. It includes unlimited use of Minitab in academic settings for our school-owned computers and for personal computers owned by our faculty, staff, and students. The software is very easy for our campuses to install, and if we ever have an issue Minitab’s Technical Support is instantaneous. The company is also very conscientious about making sure everything runs smoothly with our license. Minitab is the easiest software for us to support—I wish they all were as simple."

University of Pittsburgh
"Minitab is a much more versatile statistical software package than what you get from Excel or a graphing calculator, but it's still easy to use. Students should be exposed to it as early as possible, lest they get in the habit of using an inferior product just because that's what they're used to."
Nancy Pfenning, instructor and coordinator of Pitt's College in High School Program statistics course
