SmartPLS
The Most User-Friendly Way to Perform PLS-SEM, CB-SEM, and Regression Analysis
SmartPLS is a powerful and user-friendly statistical analysis software developed specifically for structural equation modeling (SEM). It combines both PLS-SEM (variance-based) and CB-SEM (covariance-based) methods on a single platform. With its visual modeling interface, drag-and-drop functionality, and flexible analysis options, it makes complex modeling accessible to everyone.
Surpassing traditional software like AMOS, LISREL, and Mplus, SmartPLS has rapidly gained popularity in the academic world thanks to its capabilities in regression, factor analysis, and simulation-supported analysis. Supported by over 350,000 users and more than 20,000 academic publications, SmartPLS has become a global standard for SEM.
