I am working with different soil properties. Therefore, I want to interpret the results of different soil chemical properties. So, which software is easy to handle such as STATA, MINITAB or SPSS etc.
Dear Tamjid,
most statistical programs can manage all requested tasks. Thus, it is not possible to answer, which program is the best for planning your analysis. Myself, I prefer SPSS, because it is very userfriendly and it is possible to program syntax programs as well as conducting graphical illustrations. On the other hand, software like Minitab or as SPSS or STATA are not accepted from the FDA. Therefore, it is very essential to discuss the need for the analysis: If you are conducting the analysis for getting a CE mark or for the submission process of the FDA/EMA, you must perform the analysis with SAS. Otherwise, SPSS or another program can gain similarand valid results.
Best regards and wishes

Hello,
Well it depends on your background mostly, if you are looking for an easy program you can consider SPSS, it is easy and there is a lot of support online. To work with Stata, Minitab or other software such as SAS, and R, for example, you may need to have some programming background on these languages.
Good luck,

SPSS and Minitab are user friendly and has easy to use graphical interface. Analysed data extraction is easier on SPSS. If you are planning to run time series and panel data analyses then STATA and R is recommended. Further R is open source and R studio free version is also available for download.
STATA codes can be found in the below forum;

Stata, Minitab or other software such as SAS, and R require programming knowledge as pointed out by Eliana Ibrahimi
