-That it gives me a clear answer to what I'm trying to find -When you do it correctly, it's effective -No weird and funky words required to make it work, it's quite a logical software.

STATA is the most widely used software application in my lab here at USD, it has particularly been very helpful in SEM models and creates easily comprehensible diagrams and is also very user-friendly. There are also lots of tutorials and sources that can be used as guides to help learn STATA better and these have been helpful in creating research designs as well and conducting complex analyses that would have otherwise been very hard for someone who had only used R and SPSS before.

First, it is super easy to use(I am not a programmer and it is hard for me to code, so Stata is a perfect match for me. I do not need to write a code in Stata in order to get the results, I can just get the results by clicking and choosing from given options) Second, I can run all types of regressions in Stata. Third after I get the results of regression I can see 95% confidence interval(this means that I would know what would be my min and max values at 95% accuracy). Also there is a very comfortable interface, which allows me to navigate easily. Last but not least StataCorp updates Stata every 2-3 month and you do not have to pay anything to get this updates.
