Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Statistical analysis is critical to improving business, society, and how we live. Market research for new product development, social science research at universities, and medical research at hospitals are all looking for statistically significant data patterns based on actual, experimental, or survey data. Number Analytics is designed for users who are not good at coding and statistics, but need to easily analyze various types of data for their research on their mobile devices. In the past, analyzing data meant spending hours preparing data, summarizing summary statistics, performing numerous statistical analyses based on hypotheses, and finding statistically significant relationships between variables. Especially for beginners, selecting the right statistical models and interpreting the results are the pain points and require considerable time and effort. Now it can be done with clicks and automation that can speed up the process at least 10 times. With Number Analyzer, the computer will automatically apply these statistical models and explain the statistical results in plain English. Because the computer knows which statistical models to use, you can run more than 100 statistical analyses at once. The statistical results, such as linear regression and ANOVA, show not only statistical test results, but also graphs with confidence intervals and marginal effects, and tables coded with statistical differences between subgroups.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Number Analytics at 100% against Rayyan's 37%. Number Analytics also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.8) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Rayyan's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 16 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
