Review on Netica by Charles Collier

I like that it can handle complex models, such as those involving more than two factors (i.e., multiple regression). It's not intuitive to use at first; but once you get used to its quirks, it becomes easy enough to learn how to create an effective model using this software. There are no bells & whistles here - just basic functionality. If your goal is simply creating a network diagram, then go ahead! But if there are other features/tools available within Netica, consider them before making the switch. We were able to build our own Bayesian Network from scratch by incorporating data we had previously collected via surveys.
