SAS/STAT
What SAS/STAT is
SAS/STAT is statistical analysis software for specialized and enterprise-wide analytics. Its library includes more than 90 procedures across areas such as regression, survey and survival analysis, multiple imputation, Bayesian methods, ANOVA, categorical, cluster, multivariate, and nonparametric analysis. It also supports propensity score analysis and estimation of causal treatment effects. Methods cover small data sets, missing data, and large data tasks; high-performance predictive options include regression, generalized additive, mixed, and nonlinear models, as well as 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, not as a stated amount. SAS lists SAS/STAT on the SAS Viya platform and SAS/STAT 15.4 among its recent releases.
