Premium Solver, Risk Solver - Upgrades from Developers of the Microsoft Excel SolverUpgrade the Excel Solver: Build Better Models Faster, Optimize Your Biggest Models with Amazing Speed, Help Your Company Make Money-Saving Decisions!If Microsoft Excel is a familiar or productive tool for you, then you've come to the right place for optimization and simulation software! Frontline Systems developed the Solver in Excel for Microsoft. Your Solver models, and even your VBA code controlling the Solver, will work as-is with any of our Excel products for optimization. Frontline Systems is also a leader in simulation software technology -- we developed the Extreme Speed feature of Oracle's Crystal Ball. And you can go much further with Risk Solver Premium and Risk Solver Platform: Integrate optimization and simulation to find robust optimal decisions for problems with uncertainty. You can solve much larger optimization problems, much faster than with the Excel Solver, and you can solve entirely new types of problems. You can save time building models and getting them to solve properly. The payoff can be great -- it's not unusual for our Solver users to help their companies save millions of dollars! The best way to learn more is to register on Solver.com (it's free), so you can:
Risk Solver Platform and Risk Solver PremiumRisk Solver Platform, our flagship product, includes all the capabilities of Risk Solver for risk analysis and Monte Carlo simulation, all the capabilities of Premium Solver Platform for optimization, and new capabilities for finding robust optimal decisions, using simulation optimization, stochastic programming and robust optimization methods -- amazing power that's accessible for the first time to non-experts. If Risk Solver Platform is too much for your budget right now, our subset product Risk Solver Premium is a great choice. For about the same price as other "professional" or "industrial" Monte Carlo simulation products, it offers far more powerful optimization -- with all the capabilities of our Premium Solver -- and the fastest and easiest to use simulation -- with all the capabilities of our Risk Solver product that compared very favorably to other Monte Carlo simulation products in a recent independent review. Premium Solver PlatformOur best-selling product for conventional optimization is Premium Solver Platform, in part because it can handle every type of problem up to certain size limits:
And you'll want Premium Solver Platform even if your problem is larger than these limits, because it is the base or "platform" that all of our larger-scale Solver Engines "plug into." If your problem grows in size, you can easily add one or more Solver Engines to the Premium Solver Platform at any time. Think your model is too big? Don't worry -- some of our users have linear programming models with millions of decision variables! What's more, you can upgrade Premium Solver Platform to our full Risk Solver Platform, at any time, for the difference in price -- gaining powerful Monte Carlo simulation and simulation optimization capabilities, plus new stochastic programming and robust optimization capabilities -- not available anywhere else -- to help you find robust optimal decisions for problems with uncertainty.

Premium SolverIf Premium Solver Platform is still too much for your budget, and if you just need to solve a modest-size linear, mixed-integer, or smooth nonlinear model, you can use our Premium Solver for less. Premium Solver is not "expandable" to solve large-scale optimization problems. All of our "plug-in" large-scale Solver Engines require Premium Solver Platform or Risk Solver Platform, and the Polymorphic Spreadsheet Interpreter, available only in these Platform products, plays a crucial role in the efficient solution of large-scale problems. But you can upgrade Premium Solver to Risk Solver Premium to gain simulation capabilities, to Premium Solver Platform for more powerful optimization capabilities, or all the way to our "super-product" Risk Solver Platform -- at any time, for the difference in price. That makes Premium Solver a great way to start! Click here for more specific Premium Solver Product Information.

Risk SolverRisk Solver helps you capture uncertainty in your Excel model, and see the consequences -- over not just a "best, average and worst case" scenario, but thousands of scenarios -- in seconds. And modifying your existing Excel model to do this is easier than you think, with Risk Solver. Risk analysis expert Dr. Sam Savage says, "Risk Solver does for uncertainty what the spreadsheet did for numbers." If you can use Excel, you can use Risk Solver!
The fastest way to learn more is to register for free, download and try out Risk Solver! Or you can view more specific Risk Solver Product Information. Solver EnginesIf your optimization problem is likely to exceed the size limits of Risk Solver Platform or Premium Solver Platform, then you'll want to choose a Solver Engine that handles larger-scale problems of a specific type. For more information, click on Field-Installable Solver Engines. If you register on Solver.com, you can download and try out all seven of our Solver Engines! Even if your problem fits within the size limits of our built-in Solvers, you may find that you can obtain much faster solutions with Field-Installable Solver Engines. It makes sense to choose a Solver Engine that uses algorithms or methods most efficient for your type of problem, especially if the problem is larger size. Solver Engines range in price, depending on their features, speed and capacity -- click on Excel Software and Support Prices for details. For more information on Solver Engines for specific types of optimization problems, click on one of the links below:
Note: Every Frontline Systems Solver Product will handle problems with integer variables, including variables subject to the "alldifferent" constraint. If your problem involves many such variables, however, you may find much faster solutions using the Solver Engines found through the link "Integer and Constraint Programming Problems" above.
