Try the Most Advanced Linear Programming Software Available for Excel
Premium Solver Platform is a powerful, comprehensive optimization package that is today’s most effective linear programming upgrade for the Excel Solver. Here’s why:
Premium Solver Platform:
Solves Much Larger Linear Programming Problems Than Excel Solver
- Solves Linear Programming and Quadratic Programming problems up to 8,000 variables.
(That’s 40 times the capacity of the standard Excel Solver.)- Solves Mixed Integer (LP/MIP) and Second Order Cone Programming (SOCP) Problems up to 2,000 variables.
- Automatically selects the best presolve strategy, Simplex method, pricing method, and pivoting strategy, and uses robust methods to automatically handle degenerate models.
- Linear programming upgrades to Premium Solver Platform, the LSLP, MOSEK, XPRESS and Gurobi Solvers, can solve LP/MIP problems with an unlimited number of variables and constraints.
Solves Optimization Problems Much Faster than Excel Solver
- Linear Programming Problems can often be solved 10 to 20 times faster, depending on the complexity of your model.
- Linear Mixed-Integer Problems can often be solved 50 to 200 times faster or more.
- Non-Linear Problems can be solved much faster, depending on the complexity of your model and the types of functions you use.
- Available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions which take maximal advantage of all available processor cores.
Solves New Types of Optimization Problems
- Solve every type of conventional optimization problem using the 5 built-in solver engines.
- Can automatically transform models with Excel functions such as IF, AND, OR, NOT, MIN, MAX into linear mixed-integer models for faster solution.
- Includes an Interval Global Solver that can find proven globally optimal solutions, or all real solutions for a system of nonlinear equations.
- Includes a special Solver for Second Order Cone Programming (SOCP) models -- the natural generalization of linear and quadratic programming.
The Compatible Upgrade for the standard Excel Solver
- Premium Solver Platform is 100% upward compatible with the Solver in Excel, that Frontline Systems originally developed for Microsoft.
- Existing spreadsheet models and VBA macros designed for the standard Excel Solver with work as-is with Premium Solver Platform.
- All optimization models are created within the Excel spreadsheet environment. Familiarity with Excel means a very short learning curve with Premium Solver Platform.
Automatically Determines Whether a Model is Linear or Non-Linear
- Analyzes your model and can point out formulas that make a model non-linear or non-smooth.
- Analyzes model convexity, the key property that makes it possible to solve a model quickly and to very large size.
Makes It Much Easier to Solve Optimization Problems Spread Across Multiple Worksheets
- It is no longer necessary to keep all decision variables and constraint left-hand sides on the active worksheet, as must be done with the standard Excel Solver.
Proven With Thousands of Users Over Many Years.
- Frontline Solvers have been proven in use by nearly 200,000 users.
- Over 9,000 companies, many of them Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 firms, are Frontline Systems’ customers.
- Frontline Systems’ software is the overwhelming favorite tool in its field for teaching these methods to MBA students in thousands of universities throughout the world.
