There are several online survey programs available in the web. My preferred software is Survey Gizmo because it has no limit to the number of questions you can ask and there is no limit to the number of respondents you can have (some online programs have a fixed limit for free accounts).
Although some of the features in Survey Gizmo are only available to those who subscribe to a basic account, the available features in a free account are enough to make a professional looking survey that is accessible and available to anyone.
What I like the most in Survey Gizmo is that it has tools that will allow you to test your survey as well as to simulate respondents through an online bot program.

Stata is a Statistical Program designed for Social Sciences, Biostatistics, and Econometrics.
In terms of difficulty, I would place it at the Intermediate scale since it still has point and click commands that is beginner friendly and it also has a coding component for advanced functions.
Here is how to do a simple analysis using Stata.
SPSS is a Statistical Analysis software known for its simplicity. Because of its point and click interface, it is perhaps the easiest of the Statistical programs to use.
If you would like to use a preliminary data analysis, I would recommend using SPSS to beginners.

There are times when taking Screenshots can’t be done using PRTSC because the Clipboard gets locked. One solution to this problem is through a software called Jing.
Another feature of Jing is that you can select the area of your screen that you would like to capture a screenshot off (In short: you already get to crop your screenshot!)

EViews is my software of choice in conducting a Statistical Analysis, whether it be a descriptive analysis, modeling, forecasting, or even simple graphing, if the data has a time element to it, called a time-series data. Examples of Time Series data could be a country’s GDP, or a company’s daily stock price.
