Software Requirements



Notes
Most features of the software may work with Excel 2010, but there may be some tools/features that may not work properly. Hence, we recommend only using Sigma Magic with versions of Excel 2013 or later. 

Notes
You only need PowerPoint if you want to export the analysis you generate within Microsoft Excel into a presentation. You need the PDF viewer if you want to convert the analysis into a printable format. Otherwise, these tools are not mandatory.

Notes
You only need the R software if you are using the Analytics functionality. For the remaining modules - Lean, Stats, Change, Projects, and Graphs, you don't need the R software.
