What it does
XLSTAT is a statistical-analysis add-in for Microsoft Excel on Windows and Mac. It provides data exploration, modeling and quality analysis, with specialized consumer-research methods and AI tools in higher packages. A 14-day Advanced trial requires a MyLumivero account; continued use requires a licence.
XLSTAT adds a separate tab to Excel for statistical work on spreadsheet data. Its dialogs cover tasks such as describing a sample, fitting a model and comparing consumer ratings. Reports can be taken into Excel, Word or PowerPoint for sharing.
The package matters when choosing a method:
| Package | Included scope |
|---|---|
| Essentials | Preparation, charts, descriptive statistics, modeling, clustering and quality control |
| Standard | Essentials plus machine learning, sensory analysis, text mining, Bayesian networks and marketing methods |
| Advanced | Standard plus AI assistance, workflow automation, R integration, time series and laboratory methods |
The 14-day trial includes Advanced. Download the Windows or Mac installer, run it and launch XLSTAT. Create or sign into MyLumivero and complete the activation form; that starts the trial. No card is needed, and there is no automatic charge at the end. A computer that has already used a trial cannot activate another one, and the trial cannot be extended.
Annual licences are available for continued work. On Mac, a renewed licence can be refreshed through About XLSTAT > License > Refresh. The shop separates commercial, academic and student purchasing; Microsoft Excel is still required.
