SAS/STAT
What it is
SAS/STAT is statistical analysis software for specialized and enterprise-wide analytics. It provides more than 90 procedures for areas including regression, survey analysis, survival analysis, multiple imputation, and Bayesian methods. Other documented coverage includes ANOVA, categorical, cluster, multivariate, and nonparametric analysis, as well as propensity score analysis and estimation of causal treatment effects. Bayesian capabilities include models for generalized linear, accelerated failure time, Cox regression, and finite mixture applications. SAS/STAT offers techniques for small data sets, methods for missing data, and high-performance tools for large data tasks. Predictive modeling options include regression, generalized additive, mixed, and nonlinear models, plus decision trees. SAS describes 14 SAS/STAT procedures as multithreaded and makes 12 SAS High-Performance Statistics procedures available for single-machine use. The software includes hundreds of statistical graphs and customizable graphics. SAS says it runs on major computing platforms, accesses nearly any data source, and integrates into computing environments. A free trial provides access to SAS Viya in a private trial environment. Pricing is available by request, and SAS lists SAS/STAT on the SAS Viya platform and SAS/STAT 15.4 among its releases.
