GraphPad Prism

Features

GraphPad Prism is both a comprehensive and easy-to-use tool. It has many features that allow you to be more efficient and get better quality results.

Efficiency in data organization

In contrast to spreadsheets or other scientific graphing programs, Prism offers eight types of tables of data specifically formatted for the analyses you want to run. Makes it easy to correctly enter data, choose the appropriate analyses and create charts.

Choose the most appropriate statistical analysis method for your needs

Prism presents a library of analyses ranging from the common to the very specific:

• Nonlinear regression
• Tests t
• Nonparametric comparisons
• ANOVA one-, two-, and three-way
• Contingency table analysis
• Survival analysis

Each analysis includes a checklist to help you understand the statistical assumptions required and confirm that you have selected the appropriate test.

A tutorial to make it easier for you to use statistical analysis methods

Get help as you go: 

• Prism’s online help exceeds your expectations
• Browse the chart palette and learn to create a wide range of chart types
• Sets of  tutorial data also help you understand why you need to perform certain analyses and interpret your results

One-click regression analysis

No other program simplifies curve fitting like Prism!! Select an equation and Prism does the rest:

• Fit the curve
• Display the results table and function parameters
• Plot the curve on the graph and interpolate the unknown values

Automatisez les tâches et le travail à réaliser sans programmation

Réduisez les étapes fastidieuses d’analyse et de représentation graphique d’un ensemble d’expériences. Il est facile de reproduire votre travail en créant un modèle, en dupliquant une famille ou en clonant un graphique, ce qui vous fait gagner des heures de temps de configuration. Appliquez un aspect cohérent à un ensemble de graphiques en un seul clic avec Prism Magic.

Easily customize your data

Focus on the story in your data and not on manipulating your software!! Prism makes it easy to create the graphs you want. Choose the graph type and customize any part:

• Data layout
• Style your data points
• Labels
• Fonts,
• Colors, etc…

The customization options are endless.

Reduce publishing time

Export publication quality graphics with one click!

Prism allows you to customize your exports (file type, resolution, transparency, dimensions, RGB / CMYK color space) to meet newspaper requirements. Set your defaults to save time.

Enhance collaboration with data sharing

Share more than just your graphics!

Prism’s comprehensive recording of your data allows for efficient collaboration with other scientists. All parts of your Prism project (raw data, analyses, results, graphs, and presentations) are contained in a single file that you can share with a click.  Now others can easily follow your work every step of the way, improving the clarity of your findings and streamlining your collaborative efforts.

Configuration

Microsoft Windows

System operating system

• Runs on 64-bit versions of Windows 7, 8 or 10. Prism 9 does not support 32-bit editions of Windows.

Ram memory (RAM)

For comfortable performance and responsiveness, Prism requires the following amount of RAM:

• 2 GB RAM for up to 2 million data cells in currently open Prism files
• 4 GB RAM for 2 to 8 million data cells
• 8 GB RAM for 8 to 16 million data cells
• 16 GB RAM for more than 16 million cells

Display

• The minimum display resolution is 800 x 600, but the recommended display resolution for comfortable working is 1280 x 1024.

Hard disk

• Requires approximately 100 MB (megabytes) of hard drive space.

Internet

• Prism must connect to the Internet to verify the license when it is first activated. It will also attempt to connect at each launch, and every 24 hours if the application is not closed. To continue working, this connection must be successful once every 30 days (or 20 attempts, whichever comes first).

MacOS

Operating System

• Runs on macOS X 10.12 (Sierra) or later. If you are using macOS 10.11, Prism will launch and appear to work properly, but we have not tested Prism thoroughly under this version of macOS and cannot provide much support. If you are using version 10.11, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to macOS.
• The most recent versions of Prism 9 have been updated to be compatible with macOS X 10.15 (Catalina). If you are using macOS X 10.15, be sure to update Prism to the most recent version.

Display

• Requires a display with a resolution of at least 1024 x 768 pixels.

Hard drive

• Requires approximately 130 MB (megabytes) of hard drive space.

Internet

• Prism must connect to the internet to verify the license when it is first activated. It will also attempt to connect at each launch, and every 24 hours if the application is not closed. To continue working, this connection must be successful once every 30 days (or 20 attempts, whichever comes first).
