"I have used Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis software within a course on research methods for doctoral students in nursing. With only a 90‐minute introduction, students were ready to begin data entry and to conduct basic analyses. Both they and I were pleased with its intuitive interface and with the clarity of its output. Additionally, Biostat, Inc. has provided excellent support in our efforts to employ the software in a classroom setting."

"My experience with Comprehensive Meta‐analysis is highly positive. The spreadsheet interfaces for data entry are very intuitive. They handle an astonishing wide array of indices and formats for effect sizes, including the possibility of entering them in the spreadsheet by copy‐and‐paste. The exploratory phase is easily performed thanks to a variety of facilities, as cumulative meta‐analysis, sensitivity analysis by the “one‐study‐removed” procedure, and subgroup analysis, among others. It covers all basic fixed and random effect models and provides high‐quality graphical outputs for reports. The tutorial and the manual are really helpful and friendly. In short, Comprehensive Meta‐analysis is my favorite tool both for performing and teaching meta‐analysis."
