2020 Forecasting Software Survey Results

This year’s software survey results have a slightly different look and a few new abilities to help you find the best solution for your needs. To start, the results have been broken down into three different groupings: basic information about the software, what tools are available to the software, and the software’s pricing information.

Each table now contains some filters to help sort through the results. Any column with a gray arrow at the top of it can be sorted alphanumerically in ascending or descending order. A ‘filter column’ box in a column header can be used as a search box for within that column. Simply start typing whatever feature you are looking for and the results will be filtered as you type. Finally, boxes with a yes or no answer have check boxes in their column headers. Tick one of these and results will filter to only the software that have that feature.
