The software can read multiple formats and perform mathematical transforms and statistical analyses. ProStat can help reach research and development goals, including analyzing data for a proposal, preparing graphs for publication, or solving technical research problems. ProStat is maintained onMicrosoft Windows operating systems, and the current version is 5.5 forWindows 98 toWindows 7.
ProStat was developed by Poly Software International, Inc. in 1996.
ProStat provides a data sheet window calledSheet Window where data can be edited and analyzed, a graphics editing window calledPlot Window where data can be plotted on screen, the capability to export to most computer graphic formats, and the ability to print at high resolutions on common dot-matrix printers, laser printers, plotters, or slide makers.

PSI-Plot is the sister software to ProStat. The differences between the two software are generally in extent or depth of a tool class rather than presence or absence.ANOVA in PSI-Plot becomes ANOVA,ANCOVA andMANOVA in ProStat, while the range of plot types in ProStat is extended in PSI-Plot by the addition of options such asPareto charts, Smith curves, ternary,vector, and column plots.FFT is available in both, but extended differently according to the emphases of the different target users.[1]
