blank12x6.gif (820 bytes)BrandProfiler easily computes and displays actual, 'expected', and 'difference from expected' values of attributes for each brand in a set of brands. BrandProfiler operates directly from brand/attribute tables in Excel and offers both chi and arcsine transformation methods of analysis. It rapidly produces presentation ready charts of Brands by Attributes or Attributes by Brands plus annotated tables of results. BrandProfiler operates with Excel and is fully MSOffice compatible.

Specifications

Software Requirements
Runs from within Excel 5.0, 7.0, or 97 under Windows 95, 98 and NT. (and therefore requires Excel and Windows!)
Hardware Requirements
PC with  486DX, Pentium or compatible.
Capacities
BrandProfiler capacities are substantial, but not unlimited. The maximum number of columns varies by version of Excel:
Excel 5.0 = 79 or 80.
Excel 7.0 = 72
Excel 8 (Office97) = 186
Maximum rows are greater than 200 for all versions, however correspondence map rows are equal to maximum number of columns. Excel 5 & 7 have an overall limit of about 5500 cells (rows x columns). Matrices of this size for charting purposes are highly unusual, so BrandProfiler should be able to handle the majority of tabled data that anyone might reasonably want to chart.
