Industry Leading Conventional Optimization Capabilities from Premium Solver Platform

Analytic Solver Platform provides best-in-class tools to help you solve virtually any conventional optimization problem of any size.

Excel Solver compatible	Use existing Solver models and VBA macros as-is, but solve faster -- just open your workbook and solve.
Unlimited size models	Handle problems with up to 8,000 decision variables (40 times larger than the Excel Solver) using built-in Solver engines, and virtually unlimited size problems with optional plug-in Solver engines.
Easier model building	Our Constraint Wizard helps you think about and define constraints. Guided Mode helps you better understand your model, refine it for better answers in less time, and find and correct any errors. When you're up to speed, Auto-Help Mode gives you expert help only when you encounter an error.
Dimensional modeling	Build more structured, easily readable, compact Excel models, that represent business situations with many 'dimensions' such as products, customer types, geographic regions, or time periods.
Helpful example models	Over 60 example models show you step by step how to create a basic Solver model, build more complex models, and use more advanced features.
Better solutions	Find better solutions to portfolio optimization problems, global optimization problems, and models using arbitrary Excel functions with the built-in LP/Quadratic, SOCP Barrier, Interval Global and Evolutionary Solvers.
Faster solutions	Find solutions between 2X and 200X faster thanks to more advanced Solver engines, better optimization algorithms, and our super-fast, proven accurate PSI Interpreter.
Insightful reports & charts	Easily understand and share results, and get insight into the key drivers of your model results and potential decision trade-offs you can make.
Easy to use interface	Use either a dialog-based interface that matches the basic Excel Solver, or our Ribbon and Task Pane interface with quick access to advanced features and help.
Remove guesswork	Simply define your model in Excel -- Premium Solver Platform will analyze it algebraically and automatically choose the best available Solver engine for it.
Automatic transformation	Premium Solver Platform goes beyond model analysis -- if your model would solve slowly because it uses functions like IF, VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP, MIN and MAX, it will seek to transform your model automatically into a form that can be solved much more quickly and accurately.
Upgrade Solver Engines	We developed the solver in Excel -- you get an extremely powerful, 100% compatible upgrade now, and the ability to "plug in" the world's best Solver engines for every type of optimization problem, whenever you need them. Your plug-in Solver engines will work with all our Platform products.

Industry Leading Simulation and Stochastic Optimization Capabilities from Risk Solver Platform

Analytic Solver Platform provides best-in-class tools to solve simulation/risk analysis and stochastic optimization problems of any size.

Solve any model type	Since it handles conventional optimization, simulation optimization, and stochastic optimization problems, you can build virtually any model you want, and let Analytic Solver Platform take it from there.
Rich simulation features	Over 50 probability distributions and over 50 statistics, risk measures and Six Sigma metrics are included, as well as the ability to fit distributions and automatically update them.
Seamless integration	All functions work as native Excel functions, so if you know even a little about Excel you'll be up and running in no time.
Insightful charts	From instant preview charts of distributions and fully customizable charts of inputs and outputs, to customizable multi-chart windows with full data visualization features, to charts that automatically cover multiple parameterized simulations, Analytic Solver Platform gives you greater insights.
*The fastest* simulations**	At up to 100x faster than competing alternatives thanks to our super-fast, proven accurate PSI Interpreter, you'll spend less time watching your simulation run, and more time analyzing results.
Build decision trees	Build multi-stage decision trees with point-and-click ease, and modify them right in Excel.
Simulate over trees	Add probability distributions and run simulations, to see the true range of outcomes for each decision alternative.
Full sensitivity analysis	See how your optimal decisions change as you vary the chances and payoffs across multiple outcomes.
Wizards and Guided Mode	Our Distribution Wizard helps you define probability distributions. Guided Mode helps you better understand and refine your stochastic optimization model, and find and correct any errors. Auto-Help Mode gives you expert help only when you encounter an error.
Helpful example models	Over 60 example models show you how to create Monte Carlo simulation models, decision tree models, simulation optimization models, and stochastic optimization models with chance constraints and recourse decisions.
*The fastest* optimizations**	Analytic Solver Platform can handle the most challenging stochastic optimization models, thanks to advanced methods such as stochastic decomposition, more advanced Solver engines, and our super-advanced PSI Interpreter.
