Risk Analysis and Decision
Support in Microsoft Excel
Palisade Corporation is the maker of the market
leading risk and decision analysis software @RISK
and the DecisionTools ® Suite. Virtually all Palisade
software adds in to Microsoft Excel, ensuring
flexibility, ease-of-use, and broad appeal across a
wide range of industry sectors. Its flagship product,
@RISK, debuted in 1987 and performs risk analysis
using Monte Carlo simulation. With an estimated
150,000 users, Palisade software can be found in
more than 100 countries and has been translated
into five languages.
Headquartered in Ithaca, New York, Palisade
also maintains offices in London, England, Sydney,

Innovative Analytics Since 1984
Founded in 1984, Palisade’s first product was
PRISM, which gave PC users the ability to quantify
risk by running Monte Carlo simulations. In 1987
it was succeeded by @RISK for Lotus 1-2-3,
the world’s first Monte Carlo simulation add-in
for spreadsheets. Today, @RISK is an add-in to
Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Project.
Customer-Focused Technology for Every Sector
Palisade users directly influence software features, interface, and capabilities.
Because enterprise decisions can be complex and involve massive amounts
of data, @RISK and the DecisionTools Suite are designed for maximum
computation speed and capacity—without sacrificing ease of use.
Used by professionals across a broad range of disciplines, Palisade
tools can be used to analyze any decision, course of action, or project.
