• The Wolfram Edge
• How Wolfram Compares
• Key Capabilities

Wolfram technologies include thousands of built-in functions and curated data on many topics that let you:

• Model and analyze system reliability, including the life expectancy of a component or the reliability of engineering materials, using built-in reliability analysis functionality
• Build and analyze statistical models for futures trading and other applications in finance
• Determine insights by analyzing current and historical built-in financial, socioeconomic, geographic and demographic data
• Study public health statistics, voting patterns, consumer spending data and more for predictive modeling
• Perform Monte Carlo simulations and bootstrap analyses, estimate probabilities and more for pricing options and other finance applications
• Solve optimization problems in many diverse fields, such as production, supply-chain management, engineering design, finance and more, using built-in or user-defined routines
• Generate user-defined or built-in 2D and 3D graphics for visualizing data
• Create interactive applications, reports and presentations for instant deployment through the Wolfram Player or webMathematica

Does your current tool set have these advantages?

• More statistical distributions than any other system, with specialized coverage for finance, medicine, engineering and science
• Instantly create dynamic interfaces that allow you to vary parameters and gain useful insights from datasets
  Unique to Mathematica
• Automated precision control and arbitrary-precision numerics produce highly accurate results
  Excel, MATLAB and other systems that rely on finite-precision numerics can cause serious errors due to lack of precision
• Built-in functionality for statistical analysis and computation, curve fitting, image processing and a range of other application areas
  MATLAB requires the purchase of extra tool boxes
• Seamless integration of numerics, symbolics, interactive graphics and all other computational aspects in one document
  Unique to Mathematica
• Powerful symbolic statistical computation and built-in functions for all standard statistical distributions
  MATLAB, R, STATA and other numerical systems do not have integrated symbolic functionality
• Integrated access to financial, socioeconomic, geographic, scientific and other data suitable for computation without preprocessing
  Built-in curated data is not available in other software
• Complete statistical analysis workflow, from data import to analysis to typeset report or slide show, in a single document
  R, SAS, S-PLUS, Minitab and other software do not support a complete analysis workflow in a single document
