"I recently used Comprehensive Meta‐Analysis on a large and complex data set involving several different outcome variables, several different research designs, and hundreds of effect sizes. I found the program easy to use and very powerful. Moderator analyses were easy to conduct, as were examinations of potential publication/selection biases. The user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate. It is a wonderful tool!"

"I have used CMA over the past four years on several pediatric orthopaedic projects leading to multiple publications. I have found that CMA has several valuable functions that RevMan does not offer. Additionally, I have found the staff and tech support to be very helpful. Thanks for a great product."
